How the Prophet of Allah,(PBUH)treat ed youngsters

Introduction:
Just like the Prophet of Allah, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, safeguarded the rights of the elderly, he, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, safeguarded the rights of the young as well. He, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, recognised them as being weak and vulnerable and in need of greater care.

 He, sal- lallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, advised the young of the Muslim society, who will be tomorrow’s elderly, to honor the elders.

 Applying this Prophetic advice helps bridge the gap between generations and spreads an atmo- sphere of love and understanding between the young and the old.

The Prophet of Allah, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, accorded children great importance and encouraged people to be exceedingly merciful and kind to them
