An ideal family


…….is something very precious and meaningful to us which is also very close to our hearts, it is everyone dreams of having an ideal family, wishes to live and experience a meaning life in an ideal family. However, is our family an ideal family? Do we have the qualities of an ideal family? If we do,it is amazing and we have to maintain it, if we don’t meet those characteristic of a ideal family, then we should strive to have one. How do we categorize an ideal family? Is it by the wealth we have or the large number of family members? I strongly believe that an ideal family is a religious home blessed with love, happiness and serenity, it’s a home embroidered with responsibility and empathy, furnished with honesty, loyalty and trustworthiness.
It’s a home that creates a blissful atmosphere within the family circles and overflowing to the community around.Why do we need to build an ideal family?All of us believe in lasting relationship, a true relationship is not built for a reason, a season but for a lifetime. In an ideal family , we built lasting relationship to help each other for extrinsic motivation. When our relationship is lasting it will be secure and we have rooms to create happiness when we are committed in our relationship. A part from that, we can arouse tranquility in our homes if we love and respect each family member.How do we build an ideal family?Is it by making more money, buying more properties, or expending business? Normally, human have the desire to gain wealth for the family, but in reality the inner wealth is more important than the external wealth. So, we must put more effort to gain the inner wealth that’s love. Why did I mention the word, love? It is because I believe to have a strong successful relationship is by opening up the power of love within our hearts as love can enhance human energy which enables the other main components like trust, respect, empathy, sharing, commitment, patience to flow in holistically, inshaAllah.
An ideal family

God brought us together in love
Bind our hearts in trust
Link us together as pearl necklace
Each pearl reflects its own beauty
Being irreplaceable
Let’s open up the power of love within our hearts
To make our love grow strong, true and great
as where there is strong love, there is always endurance
where there is true love there are always blessings
where there is great love there are always miracles………………
making our homes filled with endless blessings..............
Allah Almighty knows best.
La haula wala quwwata illa billahil aliyyul azim
With love and duas always
“Whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day, let him maintain the bonds of kinship.” (Bukhari)
"Rahim(family ties) is a word derived fromAr-Rahman(the Compassionate) and Allah says: I shall keep connection with him who maintains you and sever connection with him who severs you." (Al-Bukhari)
