How do we cultivate and instill 'aqidah (creed) and tawhid (the oneness of Allah) in the hearts of our children?

Question:
May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good. How do we cultivate and instill 'aqidah and tawhid in the hearts of our children? The person who asked this question is Khudhur Salim al-'Iyadi from the Northern Region.

Answer:
This is achieved through education: educating your children and guiding them to what benefits them, and raising them to pray and to be obedient, and protecting them from straying and from neglect. In this way, their uprightness and safety are achieved, and they also acquire knowledge. All of this is achieved by your attention to them, your responsibility for them, your care for them, your choice of good schools and teachers, and your follow-up of their studies and their acquisition of knowledge. All of this is achieved, with the permission of Allah, by your attention to them, your care for them, your observation of them, and your follow-up of the stages of their studies and their benefit from them. There is nothing that happens without effort, without a cause, and without the care of the child's guardian or the young person's guardian. Yes.
