<![CDATA[This study aims to reconstruct the indicators of a sakinah family from the perspectives of the four schools of Islamic jurisprudence (Hanafi, Maliki, Shafi‘i, and Hanbali) and to examine their relevance to contemporary Muslim families. The study is motivated by the lack of research integrating the indicators of a sakinah family from the four schools into a comprehensive conceptual framework. This research employs a qualitative method with a normative-comparative approach through library research based on classical fiqh texts, academic books, and scholarly journals on Islamic family law. Data were analyzed using content analysis, comparative legal analysis, and thematic analysis. The findings reveal that all schools agree that a sakinah family is founded upon the fulfillment of spouses’ rights and obligations, justice, financial support, and mu‘āsyarah bi al-ma‘rūf (good marital relations). However, each school places different emphases: the Hanafi school highlights balanced family relations, the Maliki school emphasizes family welfare, the Shafi‘i school integrates legal and spiritual aspects, while the Hanbali school stresses adherence to Islamic law. This study reconstructs an integrative framework of sakinah family indicators and demonstrates its continuing relevance in addressing contemporary challenges faced by Muslim families]]>
