The family is the foundation of society. This inspiring collection of guidance and advice from Ayatollah Sayyid Ali Khamenei helps us understand how to best implement the Islamic family ideal. From the insightful lectures and personal stories of the Leader of the Islamic Revolution, The Compassionate Family offers guidance to men and women on how to develop Islamic character, choose the best companion for marriage and overcome the struggles that often come with family life. Taking inspiration from the domestic lives of the Prophet Muhammad (s), his immaculate household and his righteous companions, Sayyid Ali Khamenei outlines the important qualities of a successful marriage and warns us of the latest dangers within modern society that can undermine the very foundations of the family structure. Calling upon the noble Qur’an and narrations of the Prophet, both men and women are given advice on how to build and support the family structure, how to identify and manage marital issues, and how to resist the influences of a self-centred society. In a world preoccupied with the self, he reminds us that a family can only survive with mutual understanding and compromise, determination from all of its members, and a willingness to embrace the God given rights, strengths, and talents of each other.
