<![CDATA[Objective: This study aims to analyze the urgency of the role of fathers in raising children to realize the generation of khaira ummah based on the perspective of the Qur'an. Fathers are positioned not only as breadwinners, but also as caregivers, educators, and role models for children. Theoretical framework: This study uses the theoretical framework of Islamic parenting and maudhu'i (thematic) interpretation of Qur'anic verses about the role of fathers. Child development theory is also used to explain the influence of fathers' involvement on the formation of children's character and emotions. Literature review: The literature review shows that the role of fathers in parenting is still often overlooked compared to the role of mothers. In fact, various studies prove that the involvement of fathers has a great influence on the cognitive, emotional, and character development of children. Method: This study uses a qualitative approach with the method of tafsir maudhu'i through literature study. Data was obtained from Qur'anic verses, journals, books, and scientific references related to the role of fathers in childcare. Results: The results of the study show that the involvement of fathers in parenting is an important foundation in shaping children's character, intellect, and emotional maturity. The active role of the father helps to create more optimal child development. Implications: This study confirms the importance of synergy between fathers and mothers in childcare. These findings are expected to raise awareness among families and communities about the importance of fathers' involvement in children's education. Novelty: The novelty of this research lies in the study of the role of fathers in raising children through the approach of interpretation of the Qur'an. This research places fathers as the main figures in the formation of the khairu ummah generation, not just breadwinners.]]>
