VIOLENCE IN RAISING CHILDREN: A COMPARATIVE STUDY FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF ISLAMIC VALUES, MODERN EDUCATIONAL VALUES, AND INTERNATIONAL AGREEMENTS

Abstract

This study addresses the issue of "violence in child-rearing" as one of the sensitive and significant concerns for the Muslim family. The research problem revolves around the lack of focus on Islamic texts and Prophetic practices in addressing domestic violence against children and the need to compare Islamic values and legal controls with international agreements and modern educational standards. The study aims to analyze the concept of violence in child-rearing and assess the extent to which Islamic educational foundations align with modern values and international agreements related to children's rights. The importance of the research lies in the context of the Muslim family and its interaction with contemporary cultural and legislative transformations, highlighting the inadequate focus on Islamic texts and Prophetic practices in combating violence and the significant role of Muslim scholars in establishing principles and guidelines for sound upbringing. The study adopted a descriptive-analytical approach to examine Islamic texts, modern educational systems, and international treaties, aiming to reveal the differences and similarities between them. The findings indicate that Islamic law provides comprehensive protection for children at all stages of growth, including the protection of the fetus, whereas international agreements lack coverage of this stage. The study also found alignments between Islamic values and modern educational principles in rejecting violence and recommended enhancing cooperation between Muslim scholars and international bodies to improve child protection and foster a safe educational environment.
