Abstract:
This research delves into the ethical principles governing kinship relations, focusing specifically on the principle of beneficence (Ihsan) and the rule of respect and honor (Ihtiram wa Takrim). The study is conducted through the lens of the philosophical and ethical perspectives of the contemporary Islamic scholar, Allamah Muhammad Taqi Misbah Yazdi. By analyzing his works, the research aims to elucidate the conceptual foundations, scope, and practical implications of these two principles within the family and extended kinship network. It explores how Ihsan, as active goodness and exceeding obligatory limits, complements the fundamental duty of respect and honor towards relatives. The study investigates the hierarchical nature of these obligations, their interaction, and their role in fostering resilient, compassionate, and ethically grounded familial bonds, ultimately contributing to the moral fabric of society from Allamah Misbah Yazdi's viewpoint.
