<![CDATA[Women play a crucial role in maintaining family resilience. Their role becomes even more tested in critical situations. This article examines the resilience of Muslim families after the Semeru eruption and highlights the vital role of women in rebuilding family strength in Sumbermujur village, Lumajang, East Java. This article uses a sociological approach, utilizing structural-functional theory. This article reveals that, sequentially, post-relocation, the survivors of the Semeru eruption were impacted economically, psychologically, culturally, and physically. Significantly, they lost assets and faced difficulties finding new jobs, which emerged as the dominant effect. This article shows that women are crucial to building family resilience.

Thus, the role of women in preserving family resilience can be seen as an implementation of their religious responsibilities to achieve a harmonious family in critical situations.]]>
