Introduction:
Glory to Allah, the Almighty, The Incomparably Great, all praise toAllah, the lord of people as proper to His majesty, and His great oldpower. There is no true God except Allah, The All Knowing and TheWise. Peace be upon the last of all the prophets who was sent as amercy for all beings, and then: The child is like a small plant which grows and flourishes until itbecomes a fruitful tree or a large shadowing one_ or it may becomea spiky or poisoned tree, we seek refugee with Allah.In order to raise a generation from fruitful trees or large shadowingones, we should take care of them since the beginning, with relyingon Allah and asking for His help in their improvement.And how much we are in need in this time, in which the nationsattack the Islamic Ummah (nation) as the eaters would
swoop
theplate of food, as the messenger of Allah peace be upon him told.We are in a great need to raise and establish a generation withstrong faith that stays on truth, holds the flag of Islam and defendsit with all of his power.And here, theauthor, suggests the first thing that can achieve thisgreat target and help to reach that high goal, and that is :" Help ourchildren to love Allah the Almighty"

What is the love of Allah?
It is that Allah the Almighty becomes beloved by you more thanyourself, your parents, and all what you own. 2-
Why the children?
Because "the child is the first brick in the community, so if we put itin a right way, the general building will be straight, regardless howmuch it rises and increases. Also the child is the nucleus of theascending generation from which the branches and the sectionsdivide. As we take care of the safety of his body growth, so we should takecare of the safety of his emotions and morals."(1) If we take care of 
 
that,, our efforts will give its fruits when the child becomes an adultand holds the flag of his religion, if he loves his God and becomesloyal in all his deeds.However,if we do not we will see him live lost without identity –weseek refuge from Allah- as we see many around us. 3-
Why do we teach them the love of Allah?a-
Because Allah The Almighty mentioned about those who love Himin the Quran, verse number (31) of the surah of Al-E-Imran :{ Say,(O Muhammad, to mankind): If ye love Allah, follow me; Allah willlove you and forgive your sins. Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.{ .
b-
Because Allah The Almighty is who created us from nil, reformsour creation, prefers us on many other creations and favors us withthe best blessing which is Islam. Then He gave us and we do notdeserve that, He promised us with Janna (paradise) as a reward fordeeds that are from His donation and graceful giving. He is thedonator firstly and finally!!!
c-
Because the messenger peace be upon him was supplicating :(Oh Allah, let your love becomes more beloved for me than myself,my family, my money, my children and than the cold water atthirst). We have a good model in the messenger of Allah.
d-
Respect and admiration are the best outcome of love whether insecret or in public. And how much we are in need that our childrenrespect their lord and admire Him, instead of having a relation withHim that is built on the fear from His penalty or from hell fire, so if they love him , their worship will be as a spiritual pleasure whichthey will live with and will keep them from the misdoing.
e-
Because the children mostly regard their fathers and mothers, orwhoever takes care and raise them, more than anyone. However,the lives of parents, and the educators are limited ,while Allah theAlmighty is The Alive, The Self-subsisting, The Lasting, TheEverlasting who does not die and who neither slumber nor sleep .Inaddition, Allah the Almighty is present with them wherever theyare, He is who keeps them safe and takes care of them more thantheir parents. So their regard for Allah and their love for Him is anecessity. Consequently when they lose their parent or one of them, they willknow that they still have a kind heart, a well-built corner and astrong support Who is Allah the Almighty.
f-
Because if they love Allah the Almighty, and know that the Quranis His speech, they will love the Quran.
