413. Commandment – To pray for children

[25:75] And those who say, ‘Our Lord, grant us of our wives and children the delight of our eyes, and make us a model for the righteous.

[37:101] My Lord, grant me a righteous son.’

[46:16] And We have enjoined on man to be good to his parents. His mother bears him with pain, and brings him forth with pain. And the bearing of him and his weaning takes thirty months, till, when he attains his full maturity and reaches the age of forty years, he says, ‘My Lord, grant me the power that I may be grateful for Thy favour which Thou hast bestowed upon me and upon my parents, and that I may do such good works as may please Thee. And make my seed righteous for me. I do turn to Thee; and, truly, I am of those who submit to Thee.’
