Abstract

This study aims to analyse the role, duties, and functions of parents in the concept of education based on QS. Al-Tahrim verse 6. The research method is to use a qualitative research method with a literature study approach. For data collection techniques, references are used from various interpretations, books, and journals related to this study. In QS. al-Taḥrīm, verse 6, the function of parents in educating children emphasizes Allah's command to every believer to protect themselves and their families from hell, which implicitly shows the strategic role of parents as the primary educators of the family. In addition to fulfilling biological needs, the role of parents in education includes educational roles, protection, examples, supervision, and affection. Classical interpretations such as al-Ṭabarī and Ibn Kathīr, as well as contemporary interpretations such as Quraish Shihab, found that parents have the responsibility to teach religious knowledge, guide morals, and provide examples of daily life. In addition, this study shows that the role of parents is also related to the theory of sociology of education and contemporary psychology, which places the family as the main source of socialization in the formation of children's personality and moral resilience. To face the challenges of globalization, technological advances, and moral decay, the protective role of parents is becoming increasingly important in today's era. Therefore, verse 6 of QS. al-Taḥrīm can be understood as a broad conceptual framework, which is normative-religious and useful for building family education. According to QS. al-Taḥrīm verse 6, the function of parents in educating children is a multifaceted mandate that directly impacts educational success and family safety. Optimizing this function will produce a generation that is faithful, has noble morals, and is able to face the challenges of the times. Conversely, ignoring this function can lead to a moral and spiritual crisis in society.
