قرآن اور بائبل کے تناظر میں خاندان کے افراد کے مابین حقوق و فرائض کا تعین، ایک تجزیاتی مطالعہ

Abstract

The family comes into existence by the mutual connection and mixing of individuals and the society is formed from the family. Therefore, individuals, family and society are interconnected. In view of the importance of family system, as much emphasis has been given to this aspect of life in Islamic teachings and as much as the teachings are described in any other system of life, even if they are inspired or not found uninspired. The development of society depends on individuals. Unless every individual fulfills his responsibilities well, the society will not be able to progress and the responsibilities can be determined only by "divine revelation". The specialty of which is that they are moderate and universal without the most comprehensive defects. Family is a permanent institution where there is strong bond and relationship between individuals. For the stability of this institution, it is necessary that its members are aware of their duties and perform them well because this is where the concept of public welfare is connected. Women and men are the main pillars of this institution on which the edifice of the family stands. Both of them have individual personality and both of them are builders of society, therefore both of them have certain rights and responsibilities. Below, the analytical study of these responsibilities is being presented in the light of Quran and Bible.
