قرآن حکیم (شرح آیات منتخب)

خانواده؛ یکی از بزرگ‌ترین نعمت‌ها

این آّیهء به یکی از بزرگ‌ترین نعمت‌های خدا به بشریت یعنی خانواده اشاره کرده که اساس جامعةٌ بشری بر آن بنا شده و ادامة حیات انسان نیز به آن بستگی دارد. ازدواج زن و مرد» علاوه بر تضمین بقای نسل انسان» موجب آرامش هر یک از آنها به وسیلةٌ دیگری می‌شود و روحیةٌ تعاون و همکاری که انسان‌ها به شدت به آنها نیازمندند نیز در این محیط شکل می‌گیرد. هر یک از اعضای خانواده به نوعی به دیگری خدمت می‌کند و بدین ترتیب» نیازهای یکدیگر را برآورده می‌کنند و جامعةٌ عظیم بشری در این گروه‌های کوچک به حیات خود ادامه می‌دهد. بی‌شک اگر انسان‌ها این رابطةٌ زیبا و تکوینی را قطع کنند و بخواهند بنیان خانواده را از بین ببرند» تیشه به ریشةٌ خود زده‌اند و دیر زمانی بر روی کرةٌ خاکی نخواهند ماند؛ چرا که هیچ نهادی نمی‌تواند جای این محیط گرم و باصفا را پرکند. > **پانوشت صفحه (منابع):** > ۱- المیزان» ج۰۱۲ ص ۲۸۸ > ۴ نمونهء چ۱۱ ص ۳۰۲ > ۲ نمونه ج۱۱ ص ۲۹۰ > ۵- المیزان» ج۰۱۲ ص ۲۹۴ > ۳ المیزان» ج۰۱۲ ص ۲۹۲ > ۴ نمونه چ۱ ص ۳۰۲ ۵ المیزان» ج۱۳, ص ۲۹۴ ۶- پیشین» ص ۲۹۷ > **Cited sources** (grade before any load-bearing use): Tafsīr Nemūneh, al-Mīzān.
