Teachings of the Sirah and Children's Psychological and Emotional Rights: Contemporary Challenges and Islamic Approaches to Child Development

Abstract

This paper explores the teachings of the Sirah of the Holy Prophet   ﷺ  as a vital guide to addressing children's psychological and emotional rights amidst contemporary challenges. The Sirah provides a comprehensive framework for nurturing children with love, respect, and emotional security, ensuring their holistic development. The Prophet’s  ﷺ  interactions with children highlight his deep wisdom in fostering their psychological well-being, emphasizing compassion, encouragement, and moral upbringing. In today's world, issues such as emotional neglect, the weakening of family bonds, and the negative impact of modern technology pose significant threats to children's mental health. This study examines the Sirah’s solutions to these challenges, particularly in reinforcing children's self-worth, instilling confidence, and ensuring their protection from harmful influences. By analyzing the Prophet’s  ﷺ  methods in parenting and education, this research underscores the need for integrating Sirah-based principles into modern child-rearing practices. The findings stress the importance of adopting the Sirah’s timeless teachings to create emotionally secure and morally upright individuals. This study aims to inspire families and societies to follow the Prophet’s ﷺ  example in ensuring children's psychological and emotional well-being, ultimately contributing to a more compassionate and stable society.
