State Mufti: Family harmony is key to happiness

|     Syazwani Hj Rosli     |

STATE Mufti Pehin Datu Seri Maharaja Dato Paduka Seri Setia (Dr) Ustaz Haji Awang Abdul Aziz bin Juned yesterday highlighted the importance of establishing a family institution along the principles of Sakinah Mawaddah (peace, tranquility and mutual affection) and Warahmah (compassion).

Delivering the keynote speech at the launching of the Happy Family Conference 2019 at the International Convention Centre, the State Mufti said, “There is no meaning to a family without any tranquility and happiness, and those should be our objectives in setting up a family.

“There are many families that are wealthy and miserable; they are not harmonious and happy because they are wasting time having fun, gambling, clubbing, drinking liquor and consuming drugs. By comparison, those living simple lives are usually calmer, more virtuous and successful in gaining blessings.”

The State Mufti also emphasised the benefits of bonding between mothers and infants, as well as raising children with a reverence for the teachings of Islam.

“When Al-Quran is taught to them, there can be no doubt that it will emerge as their intercessor, (syafaat), saviour and source of blessings,” he said.

He also touched on the subject of marriage, which he described as key to happiness.

“After the wedding…the mutual responsibility begins for the driving forces of the family – the husband and the wife,” he said.

“The husband is responsible for earning a living, and the wife is responsible for managing and administering the household. These are the pillars of a happy family. While they might seem simple, fulfilling them is far from easy.”
