Abstract

Contemporary Muslim families face increasingly complex challenges arising from social transformation, economic pressures, shifting gender roles, digitalization, and changing expectations regarding marital relationships. These developments necessitate a critical reconsideration of the traditional concept of the sakinah family, which has often been understood primarily through the normative ideals of marital tranquility, harmony, and religious obedience. This study aims to reconceptualize the sakinah family through the framework of Maqasid al-Shariah and develop a comprehensive understanding of Muslim family resilience in contemporary society. Employing a qualitative approach through normative-conceptual research and critical literature analysis, the study examines classical and contemporary Islamic legal scholarship, family resilience theories, and the multidimensional objectives of Islamic law. The conceptual analysis identifies five interconnected dimensions of family resilience: spiritual integrity, emotional well-being, intellectual development, economic sustainability, and intergenerational protection. These dimensions demonstrate how Maqasid al-Shariah can provide an integrative ethical framework that extends beyond the preservation of marital stability toward the realization of justice, mutual responsibility, adaptability, and human dignity within family relationships. The study further proposes that a resilient sakinah family should be understood not merely as a conflict-free household but as a dynamic social institution capable of managing challenges through equitable relationships, constructive communication, and shared ethical commitments. This framework offers theoretical contributions to contemporary Islamic family law and practical implications for family counseling, marital education, and family-oriented social policies.

Abstract

This study critically examines the interrelationships between Islamic parenting principles, spiritual attachment, and contemporary developmental psychology to develop an integrative framework for understanding child development within Muslim families. Employing a qualitative library research approach, the study synthesises scholarly literature through thematic analysis, critical interpretation, and conceptual integration. The findings identify three interconnected dimensions: Islamic parenting ethics, caregiver–child attachment, and spiritual attachment, which collectively provide a theoretical foundation for understanding children's emotional, psychological, moral, and social development. Islamic ethical principles, particularly rahmah, amanah, ‘adl, and ihsan, emerge as normative foundations for compassionate, responsible, and developmentally responsive parenting. The study proposes an ethical–relational–spiritual framework integrating parental responsiveness, emotional security, religious meaning-making, and multidimensional developmental outcomes. This framework distinguishes supportive spiritual guidance from coercive religious socialisation while recognising the influence of sociocultural contexts and developmental stages. Theoretically, the research advances Islamic family psychology by connecting spiritual and relational mechanisms with contemporary developmental perspectives. Furthermore, it contributes to the sociology of Islamic family law by reconceptualising parental authority as an ethically accountable responsibility that prioritises children's psychological dignity and developmental rights. The proposed framework provides a foundation for future empirical investigation and culturally responsive parenting interventions across diverse Muslim family contexts.
