Three Quranic Moral Traits for a Successful Family

God's guiding message to humanity is complete and applicable in every time, place, and circumstance. It provides a blueprint for salvation and specifies the keys to success down to the minutest detail. Yet, Islam is simultaneously simple and easy to understand, a quality that can be discerned from the verses of the Holy Quran. Consequently, Quranic guidelines not only describe the lofty qualities that result in the improvement of humankind, but also what earns the pleasure of the Creator. One such verse addresses Prophet Zakariyya (p) and his family, and the three simple characteristics that opened the door of God's blessings for them. The lesson embedded within this verse is rooted in the benefits of deep faith, excellent character and good actions, and it is a code for every person who is seeking closeness to their Lord. This concise booklet expounds upon the three qualities exemplified by Prophet Zakariyya (p) and his family by dissecting their significance in light of the Holy Quran and the traditions of the Ahl al-Bayt (pbut) so that the true believer can easily learn God's principles and apply them to every aspect of life.
