Desire for one's child to become pious

Q: My baby boy is almost 2 years old. I'm a single mother. I have a dua and dream that he goes in the right path and becomes very pious or an imam and hafiz. How can he attain that level? Are there any specific duas that I should do and what should I do myself to set these goals?

A: Be careful of halaal and haraam, the company that you keep, see that you do Quraan recitation, taleem and dua after every namaaz. Be careful about association. May Allah Ta`ala let your dream come true.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
