Abstract

Referring to the latest surveys on crisis of family in Bosnia and Herzegovina, the author highlights numerous changes which are destabilizing the modern family. The family system is exposed to the continuous impact of social and internal family changes which are unstoppable and necessary. Because of the obvious crisis, families in Bosnia and Herzegovina and their members need to receive the necessary support on the path of intense changes and numerous challenges. Expert counseling centers within the Islamic Community in Bosnia and Herzegovina would be of tremendous importance, as clearly indicated by many questions of jamaat members about family and internal family relations addressed at their imams, as well as the institution of Fatwa- ul-Ameen.
