Pious children are lights of their parent’s eyes

SHAFAQNA – According to Imam Ali (AS) pious children are presents to humanity. Imam (AS) considered pious children as lights of their parent’s eyes and good provisions for their parents after their death in the hereafter. It is narrated from Imam Ali (AS) who said: Swear to God, I never asked God for tall and beautiful faced children but I requested God for children who are obedient towards the Almighty, so that when I look at them and see them obeying Allah (SWT) my eyes are lit [1].
