Awakening Project Survey: "Our Family Life”
The institution of the family is the foundation of any society. We know that Islam places great value on cultivating this unit by emphasizing respecting elders, honouring the father and especially the mother, building bonds with siblings and forging relationships with the surrounding community. For the KSIM, family units have been the source for nurturing social ties, communal bonds and values in youngsters so that all the families contribute to a cohesive community.

Today, however, these roots are constantly under pressure from a fast-paced modern society that gives us little time to spend with our loved ones. As a result, it is difficult to focus on the education of our children. At the same time, divorces are rising, inside and outside of our community and new conceptions of the family unit are becoming the norm. Our elderly people suffer from loneliness and health problems and crave security within a family and communal surrounding.

This is an invitation to you to participate in a survey on our family life. The survey is about how you feel about your life together as a family. We will use what we learn from this survey to inform ourselves on the state of our family life and how together as a community we can bring about improvement through our community institutions. Your input is crucial to make this happen. This is an anonymous survey. No personal identity is asked of you.
