Abstract

Islam is greatly interested in the Islamic family, because of the high regard it holds in the Muslim community. Islam considers the family the first pillar in reproducing righteous progeny, who is good in himself and serves goodness to others, a lover of good for both his country and the ummah. In our contemporary time, there many challenges faced under the pretense of openness and rapid development in all facets of life and this includes ways and means of social communications, which exposes everyone to the danger it poses on the family. The purpose of this paper is to enunciate ways to building a happy family in Islam and to warn against the danger of complacency in contemporary variables, the neglect of which would lead to the demolition and destruction of the family structure. The paper also aims at showing the importance of choosing a wife with religious conviction and morals, and the depth of the danger posed by the social communication on family disintegration and the destruction of values and ethics. The paper arrived at the conclusions that building a family properly and rationally is not an easy task, but rather a great duty that needs preparation and readiness, and that that the marital life is not to be taken as playful and funny, it is not just for passionate amusement and carnal enjoyment, but rather it is filled with consequences, responsibilities and duties. Whoever trivializes it is ignorant of the divine legislative wisdom therein, and whoever abuses it or intentionally misplaces its rights deserves the wrath and punishment of Allah SWT. The paper also concludes that the Islamic family is subjected to fierce attacks that utilize all possibilities for the demolition and disintegration of its entity, the effect of which would be negative and bad for individuals and the society if the enemies of the ummah succeed in that. A family so desired for happiness and stability is built on solid foundations, the most notable of which is the care and respect for the rights among the spouses, cohabitation, and open prospects of strong emotions, in order that the spring of love flows and the bond is strengthened.
