Role of Family in Moral and Spiritual Development: An Interlinked Phenomenon |
Fida Ur Rahman* & Dr. Janas Khan**
Family is the basic unit of an Islamic social system. Islam stresses upon the overall moral and spiritual development of an individual. It creates such a pattern of grooming and training for the individual that not only helps in exploring his/her potential and inner capabilities but also shapes his/her moral and spiritual character and attitude. Unlike Western philosophy of individualism, Islam stresses upon a human character based on the philosophy of collectivism. Family plays a pivotal role in materializing the Islamic concept of human development by engaging the institution of family in such a way that functions naturally, and consequently shaping a God- fearing, productive, humane and vibrant human personality based on the golden principles of the Quran and imitable Sunnah of the Messenger of ALLAH (PBUH).
This paper is an attempt to explore the Quranic principles and Prophetic traditions recommended for developing an ideal human personality in a desired and natural way.
