Assalamualaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh

In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful. O Allah! I seek refuge in You from knowingly associating partners with You in any way, and I seek Your forgiveness for that which I do not know. Ameen.
 

There is a story when Amirul Mu'minin Saidina Umar al-Khattab became caliph that one day a man came to see him complaining about his son who was accused of disobeying him. 

Umar called the son who was said to be rebellious. He judged the child face to face with his father. In the court ceremony, the son asked the caliph to declare the son's rights against his father. 

Caliph Umar stated that: "One of the rights of a child towards his father is that the father must find a good wife to be the mother of his child who will be born into the world. 

"After the child is born, the father should give him a good name. After the child grows up, he should be taught to read the Quran." 

Hearing this, the son then said: "O Commander of the Faithful! All that was not done by my father. My mother is from the Magians who worship fire. My name is not a good name and I was not taught to read the Qur'an." 

Caliph Umar looked at the man who made the complaint and said to him: "Did you come here to complain about your son's disobedience to you? It turns out that you disobeyed him before he disobeyed you. You did evil to him before he did evil to you." 

Among the rights of children in Islam are as follows: 

Choose a good mother 

Before a child is born, Islam establishes that the right of a child is to have a good mother. This right is rarely realized by us because we think that the child's right starts from the day of his birth, even on the contrary it actually starts before they are born again. 

Therefore, a person who is going to get married should pay attention to who he will spend his life with. 

Rasulullah s.a.w. taught his people who wanted to marry to choose a pious and religious woman. The Prophet s.a.w. said the meaning: "A woman is married for four things, namely: because of her property, because of her position, because of her beauty and because of her religion. Choose a religious woman." 

Likewise for a woman, in choosing a husband she should give priority to the religious so that there is a story that says that "when you are approached by a man with a strong religion and good morals who wants to propose to your child, then accept his proposal. If not, there will be slander". 

Recite a prayer during intimacy 

Likewise, the second right that we often neglect is to recite a prayer when approaching his wife, which in Sahih Bukhari is mentioned as meaning, "If one of you when approaching his wife recites, 'Bismillah allahumma jannibnasy-shyaithan wa jannibisy-shyaithan ma razaqtana' (With  the name of Allah. O Allah, keep the devil away from us and keep the devil away from what You have provided for us). 

This prayer is important so that the child that will be born from our relationship is freed from the devil's interference from the beginning. Parents are sometimes forgetful, careless and ignore this prayer, and do not consider that this prayer is actually a child's right that we need to fulfill in order for the child to be saved from the devil's interference. 

These two rights are often neglected by parents even though they are also included in the children's rights that we must fulfill.

Wallahu a'lam.
