Strengthening the Family Institution in Islam
1
Which means: “And one of His signs is that He created for you
spouses from among yourselves (O men), so that you may find
peace in them. And He has placed between you (spouses)
compassion and mercy. Surely in this are signs for people who
reflect.” (Ar-Rum: 21)
Even with this clarity, there are other conflicting ideas and
lifestyles that can sow the seeds of doubts and confusion on the
concept and structure of families. Some giving the impression
2
that families can be constituted other than from a man and a
woman. As Muslims, we cannot accept such ideas that are
clearly not in accordance with our religious values and teachings.
These ideas are even in conflict with the views held by the
majority with regard to the concept and structure of families.
There are two pieces of advice that I wish to share with all of you.
Parents must also engage with the views and perceptions of their
children regarding the social trends of their generation. When a
child feels at ease to express themselves, it would be easier for
the parents to discuss with them about such social issues. This
3
will allow parents to better provide guidance and explanations
that are based on religious values and teachings.

May Allah (s.w.t) grant us strength, guidance, and success in our
efforts to educate our children with wisdom and maturity to
overcome the challenges we face today. Amin. Ya Rabbal
‘Alamin.
