<![CDATA[The phenomenon of fatherlessness is defined not only as physical absence but also as emotional and educational neglect by fathers. This has become a problem in modern society. This study explores how the Qur'ān, through the story of Luqman, provides insights and guidance to overcome this problem through the lens of maqāṣidī interpretation from the perspective of Abdul Mustaqim. Using the thematic interpretation method, this study attempts to analyze the related verses using content analysis. The findings reveal three main messages: first, society should not be fixated on socio-cultural stereotypes of gender roles, but should return to Qur'anic principles that are applicable across time and place (ṣāliḥ li-kulli zamān wa makān). Second, fathers are urged to adopt an open-minded approach by challenging rigid cultural norms and actively engaging in parenting and education. Third, there is a need to reconstruct fathers' mindsets regarding cause-and-effect relationships-recognizing that neglecting emotional engagement may encourage children to seek attention from the external environment. This research emphasizes the importance of strengthening the father-child bond and contributes to a theoretical framework for educational interventions rooted in Qur'anic values.]]>
