The audio has been digitally edited to remove a lot of excessive background noise and the breakdown of those benefits are posted below, barak Allahu feekum.
- Cultivate your children upon the remembrance of Allah when entering the home and upon eating
- Seek refuge in Allāh at the time of intercourse
-
Make your home a place where the remembrance of Allah is mentioned (i.e. Qur’ān, legislated Adhkār, supererogatory prayers)
-
Make an abundance of supererogatory prayers in the home and get your children accustomed to praying them (i.e. Sunan Rawātib, Duhā, Witr etc)
- Seek refuge in Allāh from Shaytān on behalf of your children with the legislated supplication
- Bring the children in to the home when Maghrib comes in
- Recite Surah al-Baqarah in the home frequently
- Do not keep pictures of living things (i.e. humans, animals) in the home as this repels the presence of the Angels
- Do not raise dogs in the home as pets; this repels Angels from entering the home
- Accustom yourself and your children to remember Allāh when leaving the home
Abu Hurairah (رضي الله عنه) narrated that the Prophet ﷺ said: "Whoever invites to guidance will be rewarded like those who follow him in the guidance are rewarded, and that will not decrease the reward of those who have followed him." [Collected by Imām Muslim]
