Children grow into adults seeing the father serve the mother having little say on the action of his wife other than actions she routinely accepts as a Muslim, like correct dress. How will the children grow into strong young men and woman who embody the attributes of following and serving when the template of servitude and leadership within the parental model has been so seriously misaligned. To the growing child, the authority of the father (under which is the authority of the mother) is a template of the authority of Allah, his Messenger (salalahu Ālayhi WaSellem), his Deen and Amirs who take on the responsibility to lead the Muslims within communities beyond the confines of the Masjid. 'Our Lord. Forgive me and my parents, and (all) the believers on the Day when the reckoning will be established. Ameen.' "Thy Lord hath decreed that ye worship none but Him, and that ye be kind to parents. Whether one or both of them attain old age in thy life, say not to them a word of contempt, nor repel them, but address them in terms of honor. And out of kindness, lower to them the wing of humility, and say: ‘My Lord! bestow on them Thy Mercy even as they cherished me in childhood' "(17:23-24).
