Sheikh Muḥammad ibn Ṣāliḥ Al-’Uthaymīn:
Firstly, we address your father. It is his duty to help you marry, especially if Allāh has blessed him with sufficient means, and you are not financially able to do so on your own. According to the Sharī‘ah, he is obligated to assist you in this matter, and he will be held accountable by Allāh for fulfilling this duty. If your father does not fulfill this obligation, then…

Sheikh Ṣāliḥ Al-Fawzān ḥafidhahullāh:
Yes. Your mother does not have the right to prevent you from getting married.

There is no obligation to obey a created being when it results in disobedience to the Creator. Delaying marriage when you are capable is…

Hitting a child should be the final recourse in discipline
Sheikh Faiṣal Al-Ḥāshidi ḥafidhahullāh said:
«الضرب غير المبرح للطفل عند الحاجة جائز، لكن اجعله الوسيلة الأخيرة في العقاب؛ حتى لا يفقد الضرب مفعوليته والمربي هيبته؛ لأن تعود الطفل على الضرب عند كل خطأ لن يصبح له تأثيرًا، ولن تفلح معه بقية الوسائل كالهجر، والحرمان والزجر والعبوس، وغيرها من العقوبات النفسية»

Why does a human’s fist remain clenched when they enter the world and open when they leave it?
Ibn Al-Qayyim, may Allāh have mercy on him, explained:
"The clenching of the fist upon entering the world symbolises the inherent eagerness and greed which one arrives with, while the opening of the hand upon leaving signifies departing from the world empty-handed."
[At-Tibyān fī Aymān Al-Qur'ān, p. 545.]

Advice to parents specifically regarding their young children
Do not be among those who, when their young children have memorised the Qur'ān and some ḥadīth, showcase them here and there, taking them around to various masjids to give talks or lectures, or appointing them as imams. If any of you does this with your child—without safeguarding them—you are exposing them to dangers, such as being affected by the evil eye. Furthermore, it plants in their heart a love for public…

Abū Mālik Muḥammad Shuqrāh, a distinguished student of Sheikh Albāni (raḥimahullāh), aimed to reform the Sururis (a deviated group that falsely ascribes itself to Salafiyyah) by engaging with and accompanying them.

Superstition/Khurāfah was the name of a man from the tribe of Banū ’Udhrah who was taken by the jinn. After some time, he returned to his people and began telling them strange and wondrous tales about the jinn. The people found his stories unbelievable, and over time, his name became a proverb. When the Arabs would hear something that was irrational or had no basis in reality, they would say:
