The relationship between parental upbringing and the divine will of Allah in shaping a child's character. While it is common to see great children emerge from great parents, it is also possible for morally corrupt children to arise from noble families. This highlights Allah's absolute power and wisdom, which transcends human efforts. Ultimately, a child's greatness is not solely determined by their family's values or upbringing but depends on the child's own character and actions.

The Role of Parents and Allah's Decree in Shaping a Child's Character

إذا طاب اصل المرء طابت فروعه 🔴 ومن عجب جادت يد الشوك بالورد

وقد يخبث الفرع الذي طاب أصله 🔴 ليظهر سر الله في العكس والطرد

Most great children emerge because of the upbringing of great parents, and even influential individuals will come to show respect to them.

However, remember that corrupt children can also grow from noble families. This shows that Allah is the Almighty, whose will cannot be influenced by human intervention.

Therefore, the measure of a child's greatness is not their family or good parents, but honor and virtue appear based on the child’s own character.
