Daughters are without doubt a great blessing from Almighty Allah. They are a means of salvation and a path to Jannah for their parents. Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) has stated that when a boy is born, then he brings one Noor (light) and when a girl is born, then she brings two Noors.

In the Pre-Islamic time the Non-Believers would get disheartened by the birth of a baby girl and think of her as a burden but not a relief. Feeling ashamed they would not only hide themselves from the people but would even bury their own daughter alive. As stated in the Qur’an:

“And when one among them receives the glad tidings of a daughter, his face turns black for the day, and he remains seething.”

“Hiding from the people because of the evil of the tidings; “Will he keep her with disgrace, or bury her beneath the earth?”; pay heed! Very evil is the judgement they impose!”
