Neglecting parents in teaching their daughters the rulings of the religion

Question:
May Allah reward you with good and do you good. Shaykh Salih says: I have reached the age of twelve years, and I do not understand the meaning of fasting. And this implies various things, may Allah reward you with good. Among them: Is there negligence in the educational curricula, especially those concerned with matters of religion? Is there negligence in upbringing at home? Is there a word to be said about these issues? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
There is no doubt that this indicates negligence; it indicates negligence on the part of the fathers and mothers. It is obligatory for them to teach their children the rulings of their religion, to teach them prayer and fasting, and to teach them the rulings of their religion. Among the most obligatory of this is knowing the creed, knowing prayer, knowing fasting, and the remaining rulings of Islam, which is the matter of religion. The parents, the parents, the parents are commanded to teach their children and raise them. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Allah the Exalted said: "And enjoin prayer upon your family." The responsibility for the children lies with their fathers. And the fact that the two girls reached the age of menstruation and menstruation came upon them while they did not know about fasting, so they left fasting or fasted while menstruating, this is negligence on the part of the parents, and they will bear sin for it. However, this does not absolve the daughter who left fasting during this period of her responsibility; she must make up for it by fasting the number of days and feeding a poor person for each day.
