The 7-7-7 rule in Islamic parenting, derived from sayings attributed to Imam Ali (a.s.) and the teachings of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh), suggests dividing a child's upbringing into three distinct seven-year phases: the first seven years (0-7) are for play and love, treating them like a king; the second seven years (7-14) are for teaching discipline and religious duties, treating them like a captive/student; and the third seven years (14-21) are for friendship and guidance, treating them as a companion to build a strong bond before they become independent adults. This approach emphasizes adapting parenting styles to the child's developmental stage for a balanced, spiritually grounded upbringing.
