Islamic Parenting in the Digital Age Nurturing Faith, Character, and Resilience in the Next Generation

Abstract

In the digital era, Muslim parenting faces unique challenges as families strive to preserve Islamic values amidst rapid technological shifts. This article, "Islamic Parenting in the Digital Age: Nurturing Faith, Character, and Resilience in the Next Generation," offers a faith-based framework grounded in the Qur’an, Sunnah, and classical Islamic pedagogy to guide parents in raising spiritually conscious and morally upright children. It examines the psychological and moral impacts of screen time and digital culture on children's identity and values, and presents practical strategies—such as instilling tawheed, setting digital boundaries, and using Islamic storytelling—to nurture iman, akhlaq, and sabr. The article advocates for a mindful integration of technology that supports Islamic ethics, strengthens family ties, and equips children to succeed in both dunya and akhirah.
