在伊斯兰教中，自由的观念被责任所取代。这种责任不仅仅是对自己及自身欲望的责任，而是对你的造物主安拉（SWT）的责任。伊斯兰的社会制度涉及男女之间的关系以及他们之间产生的问题，它为稳定和睦的家庭结构确立了明确的准则。正是在这一基础之上，你作为父母与子女之间的关系得以建立，也正是这一基础为社会提供了环境，使你能够确保自己的孩子成长为你所引以为豪的人。

In Islam, the mentality of freedom is replaced by responsibility. This responsibility is not merely towards yourself and your own desires, rather it is the responsibility to Allah (swt) your creator. The Social System of Islam, which deals with the relationship between men and women and the issues that arise between them, defines clear guidelines for a stable and harmonious family structure. It is upon this basis that your relationship as a parent with your child is built, and it is this that provides the environment in society which can enable you to ensure that your child will grow up to be someone you are proud of.

首先，抚养孩子的主要责任落在你们作为父母的身上。安拉(SWT)说：

The primary duty to bring up your child lies on the neck of you as the parent. Allah (swt) says,.

“信道的人们啊！你们应当自救，也要救你们的家属，使他们免受以人和石头为燃料的火狱之刑罚。”（66:6）

“Oh you who believe, save yourselves and your families from the Hellfire, whose fuel is men and stones.” [TMQ 66:6].
