Last week, we explored the four dominant parenting styles : authoritative, authoritarian, permissive and uninvolved. This week, we’ll look into the Seerah (life of Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him) to understand how he viewed and interacted with children, both his own and others. Then, we discuss where he would fall in the parenting styles and how this relates to our approach with our own children.
Facilitated by Edina Lekovic, Parents Circle is an open and inclusive weekly space where we try to draw on parenting resources in Islam and beyond to empower ourselves and support each other in raising strong, healthy Muslims.
