The family serves as the primary Islamic educational institution, shaping children's personality amid modern challenges that weaken its pedagogical role. This study analyzes its urgency and formulates a contemporary framework via discourse analysis of the Al-Usrāh text in Al-Tarbiyyah Al-Islamiyyah by Nafiz Sulaiman Al-Ajab and Muhammad Kamil Al-Jamal. Employing qualitative library research, it draws on primary (the book) and secondary sources, analyzed via Miles-Huberman model. Findings highlight the family as guardian of fiṭrah, character builder, and faith internalizer. The framework integrates tarbiyyah, ta‘līm, and ta’dīb, emphasizing parental role-modeling, habituation, hidden curricula, conducive environments, and muḥāsabah. Strengthening family pedagogy counters globalization, fostering faithful, knowledgeable generations.
