ISLAMIC LAW VIEWS ON HARSH PHYSICAL PARENTING: A Comparative Study Oleh: Mutia Hasan 1 , Achmad Musyahid, Abdi Wijaya 1 E-mail : mutmainnahhasann@gmail.com Fakultas Syariah dan Hukum UIN Alauddin Makassar Abstract This research aims to educate children in ordering prayers in Islam and then analyze it in the child protection law. However, in general, Islam places more emphasis on gentleness, patience, and compassion than on violent ways in educating children, although in some instances showing disbelief and opposing children's mistakes is necessary, of course, correctly and appropriately. In the concept of Islamic law, violence has become an enjoyable theme to discuss. On the one hand, there is a hadith from the Prophet about educating children, which, if understood textually, raises the public perception of the necessity of violence in educating children. The Child Protection Law aims to guarantee and protect children and their rights to live, grow, develop and participate optimally following human dignity and protection from violence and discrimination. Keywords: Islamic Law; Prayer; Child Protection Act INTRODUCTION Prayer is a commandment from Allah for his servant that begins with takbiratul ihram and ends with greetings, with certain conditions and harmony.

Because the most important thing to count and be accounted for before Allah is prayer 1 . According to Imam Ahmad, another statement regarding prayer is: everything that has lost its ends means wholly disappeared. If a servant's prayer has been lost, his religion will also be lost. 2 . Even this prayer command is mentioned in the word of Allah Almighty in (Surah Al-Baqarah / 2: 34.) which reads:                      Meaning: Establish prayer, pay alms-tax, 1 and bow down with those who bow down. 1 Subhan Husain al-Husairi, Agar Anak Rajin Salat (Jogjakarta: Diva Press, 2011), h. 29. 2 Subhan Husain al-Husairi, Agar Anak Rajin Salat, h. 29.
