Family- from the Islamic and Psychological points of view starts out exploring the foundation of a family, that of marriage and its profound psychological effects on the family structure. Salarifar then dissects the nature and characteristics of a stable family environment to ensure the stable and efficient development of the spiritual and psychological features of all members. Topics such as conflict resolution, duties and responsibilities, setting boundaries, moral advice and behavioural ideals are discussed. The last two chapters tie the psychological discussions with the juxtaposition of salient examples from the lives of the Holy Prophet (S) and his pure progeny (S). The family is realised as a microcosm of society and the training ground for good social relationships as well as physical, psychological, and spiritual wellbeing.
Salarifar uses illustrations and diagrams to simplify concepts in a way that a reader of any level would appreciate and understand. The comprehensive and well-referenced yet succinct discussions posited will leave the reader in awe of the unique instructions and models of Islam as exemplified by the Holy Prophet (S) and his pure progeny in building a stable and peaceful society. A highly recommended manual for those wishing to nurture a stable and successful family.
