التوافق الزواجي و أثره على استقرار الأسرة

Abstract EN

Objective: The study investigated the importance of marital adjustment as well as its effects on family cohesion and stability.

Marital adjustment needs the existence of common grounding of principles and rules- derived from the teachings of Islam, which, in turn, have received scientific evidence and support from many research and studies- upon which the family members can act and interact.

Method: The study used the following approaches: (1) the inductive, for making inferences from the relevant texts in both Islamic revelation sources (Quran and Sunnah); (2) the analytic, for analyzing and interpreting those texts; and finally (3), the deductive, for identifying its implications, the educational messages, and applications included in those texts.

Conclusion: The Sharia adequately addressed the question of marital adjustment, due to its paramount role in enhancing the marital relationship, strengthening mutual affection between spouses, and achieving family cohesion and stability, which would, in turn contribute to the prevention or reduction of the potential factors and phenomena that may threat the family, its value, or society
