Family is at the core of our experience as human beings. Family impacts us in so many ways. The situation within the home affects us psychologically, emotionally, and even spiritually. Different aspects of family life have been addressed in the Quran and Sunnah. We are witnessing the deterioration of the institution of family. When family falters, civilizations fall. In spite of this challenge, the solution remains very simple. It is the implementation of the way of life granted to us by Allah: Islam. This lecture briefly discusses not only the issues families face today, but also the solutions.

Arranged marriages are the cultural norm for many Muslims across the world. Men and women who are ready to get married may meet their future spouse through family or friends. Forced marriage, on the other hand, occurs when a man or woman is coerced by the family to marry, using threats, emotional blackmail, fraud, and even bribes. Arranged against the person will, without consent or consent under duress. That is not a marriage in Islam; it is oppression and abuse.
