ABOUT US

سم الله الرحمن الرحيم

Tarbiyah Parenting is a hub of parenting education resources for the Muslim parent. We streamline your access to positive parenting tools and simplify current research on child development, all within the context of Islamic culture.

What is Tarbiyah Parenting?

On the communal effort to educate and cultivate the Muslim youth, Imām al-Albānī (‎رحمه الله) states:

“As regards the second obligation (i.e. tarbiyah), then by it I mean: cultivating the young generation upon this Islām, purified from all that we have mentioned, giving to them a correct Islamic education from the start – without any influence from the disbelieving western education. There is no doubt that bringing these two obligations about requires huge efforts and sincere cooperation between all Muslims, individuals and groups, from all those who are truly concerned with establishing the desired Islamic society, each one working in his own field and specialty.”

With tawfeeq from Allah, we put forth Tarbiyah Parenting as a small contribution towards the growth of the Islamic home, community, and in turn, the society.

I learned so much about myself as a parent

My weekly sessions with Umm Faruq were eye opening and life changing. I started out looking for help with disciplining my children and getting them to comply. I ended up learning how to anchor myself, how to become more nurturing, and how to be present while still having appropriate authority. I learned so much about myself and have become more aware about how I parent and how this affects my children. Jazaki Allahu Khairan.

What is Our Approach to Parenting?

Our approach to parenting is that of a compassion-based, parent-centered education.

Considering other aspects of a child’s life that are impactful on his development, we’ve based content on the website (and our parent coaching program) into a 4-part framework that makes up the Tarbiyah Parenting Model™. The model focuses on the following:

  1. The Parent
  2. The Islamic Home
  3. The Child
  4. The Strategies

Tarbiyah Parenting is a subset of the Tarbiyah Education Initiative, a project by Tarbiyah Outside the Box LLC, intended to support and resource Muslim communities in aspects of education and cultivation of the youth.
