The Detrimental Effects of Family Culture

English book, p. 53

By Maulana Wahiduddin Khan

THE DETRIMENTAL EFFECTS OF FAMILY CULTURE Intellectual development is an unfamiliar concept to them. The damage caused by this family culture is that while the people may appear to lead comfortable lives based on material wealth, they suffer from intellectual dwarfism. Engaging them in serious discussions reveals their lack of scientific thinking, knowledge of the universe of facts, and opinions on significant life issues. They may outwardly resemble human beings, but they are merely well-dressed animals. The foundation of family life should facilitate intellectual growth rather than becoming a constant obstacle to mental development.
