Abstract
According to ontological principles, children have both material and spiritual needs from the moment of their birth. To fulfill and guide their spiritual needs, they must be educated and trained, with the primary responsibility for this education resting on the shoulders of the parents from an Islamic jurisprudential perspective. One of the most significant spiritual needs of children is the "need for worship," which is prominently exemplified by "prayer." However, due to parents' lack of awareness regarding their duty to educate their children about prayer, there has been little success in this area. It seems that one of the main reasons for this lack of awareness is the insufficient and disorganized discussion and examination of the jurisprudential rulings concerning the pre-pubescent period of children. Considering that some jurists do not find the arguments for the necessity of parental responsibility in teaching and educating prayer to minor children sufficient and have not provided independent reasoning for their views, this article aims to focus on the arguments regarding this issue. It will examine and analyze the validity of the arguments for the necessity of teaching and educating prayer to minor children based on interpretive and jurisprudential methodologies. In summary, this paper emphasizes the jurisprudential foundations and presents a new interpretation of the arguments for the necessity of teaching prayer to minor children, deeming it obligatory for parents according to the views of certain Shia jurists. It does not consider the debates regarding the necessity of these arguments, such as the non-independence of the educational rationale of the verse of preservation and its advisory nature, to be relevant.
