Abstract

Building a sakinah family remains a significant challenge amid changing social conditions, economic pressures, and increasing marital conflicts. Religious counselors play an important role in strengthening family resilience through Islamic guidance and counseling. This study aims to analyze the strategies employed by religious counselors in fostering sakinah families in Lima Puluh Kota Regency. This research employs qualitative field research with a descriptive-analytical approach. Primary data sources were obtained from 3 religious extension workers and 2 relevant religious figures, while secondary data are derived from academic literature, official documents, and related research. Data collection techniques include interviews, observation, and documentation. Data are analyzed through data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that religious counselors employ several strategies, including premarital guidance, family counseling, religious education, conflict mediation, and community-based outreach. These strategies emphasize Islamic family values, effective communication, mutual responsibility, and conflict resolution. The effectiveness of these efforts is influenced by community participation, institutional support, and the accessibility of counseling services. However, limited human resources, insufficient facilities, and varying levels of public awareness remain significant challenges. This study highlights the importance of strengthening religious counseling programs, improving institutional collaboration, and developing adaptive approaches to support harmonious, resilient, and sustainable sakinah families.
