THE PROPHETIC PERSPECTIVE ON PATIENCE IN FAMILY INSTITUTIONS

This study examines the role of patience, one of the prophetic virtues, in fostering harmony within the family institution and community. In contemporary settings, uncontrolled anger within families has led to behavioral leakage, which disrupts social balance. This research explores how the Prophet Muhammad’s (PBUH) teachings on patience can serve as a model for moral development. The study utilizes both primary and secondary sources through descriptive and thematic content analysis. Findings reveal that moral traits such as patience, open-mindedness, and positive thinking contribute to family harmony and social cohesion. Thus, patience is a vital prophetic virtue that not only strengthens familial ties but also helps families navigate the challenges of modern life.
