It is obligatory upon the human being to teach the children Tawheed, before teaching them the Quran?, so he becomes a person who is complete, upon the fitrah of Islaam, and a good, firm muwwahid (Person of Tawheed) upon the path of Eemaan (true, correct belief).
The Fitrah is the natural state and inclination that Allah created the human being upon, which is the innate belief in Allah and that He Alone is the Creator and Sustainer, and that He Alone is to be worshipped.
The Messenger of Allah (Sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) said: "There is no child born except that he is upon the Fitrah. So it is his parents who make him a Jew or a Christian or a Magian. " [al-Bukhaaree in the Book of Tafseer (#4775)] And this hadeeth shows that the Parents are the first step for the guidance of the children towards the right path or the wrong path. So parents are responsible to guide them to Tawheed from the very beginning.
So for parents, the first and most important thing for them to instill in their children's hearts is Tawheed.
And this is what the Messenger did with the children, like In
'Abbaas, when he (1) said: "O young man, I shall teach you some words [of advice]: Be Mindful of Allah and Allah will protect you.
Be Mindful of Allah and you will find Him in front of you. If you ask, then ask Allah [Alone; and if you seek help, then seek help from Allah [Alone]. And know that if the Ummah were to gather together to benefit you with anything, they would not benefit you except with what Allah had already prescribed for you. And if they were to gather together to harm you with anything, they would not harm you except with what Allah had already prescribed (decreed) for you. The Pens have been lifted and the Pages have dried."
[Collected by at-Tirmidhee (#2516) and Shaykh al-Albaanee declared it to be authentic] And Jundub bin Abdillaah said: "We were with the Prophet
(83) and we were youth who had grown strong (in body), so we learned Eemaan before we learned the Qur'aan, then we learned the Quraan and it increased us in Eemaan." Collected by Ibn Maajah (#61) and declared authentic by Shaykh al-Albaanee] And from the lives of the Companions- in the authentic narrations - we can understand the meanings of the Qur'aan and Sunnah. }
