The Time for Teaching Girls Matters of the Shari'ah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you with good. Sister Salma says: Shaykh, how does a woman teach her daughters matters of the Shari'ah? Is it from a young age or when they are older? And when do we start teaching them matters of the Shari'ah?
Answer:
He (peace and blessings be upon him) said:. So the teaching of children, boys and girls, begins at the age of discernment, which is reaching the age of seven in most cases. When the child discerns and comes to know what is said to him, then at that point one begins with him the upbringing in prayer, in the ablution for prayer, and in ritual purity, and he is taught the Qur'an and taught the remembrance of Allah. Yes.

Answer:
He (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Order your children to pray at seven, beat them for it at ten, and separate them in their beds
مروا أولادكم بالصلاة لسبع، وضربوهم عليها لعشر، وفرقوا بينهم في المضاجع
