“Life satisfaction” is one of the ideals of each person and community to achieve “individual comfort” and “social peace”. Since human being is a social being, mutual satisfaction between people who interact with each other is one of the most important factors for the fulfillment of “life satisfaction”. When speaking of “satisfaction” as a descriptive word for two-sided relations, one side is described as “well-pleased” (Arabic: RAZI) and the other is described as “well-pleasing unto him/her” (Arabic: MARZI). Therefore, three assumptions can be considered for each mutual relation: (1) both sides are well-pleased (razi) with one another, so each side is also described as well-pleasing (marzi) unto the other side; (2) one side is well-pleased and the other side is unpleased. This assumption practically is divided into two sub-assumptions (i.e., in one assumption, A is pleased and B is unpleased, and in the other assumption B is pleased while A is unpleased), so one side is also well-pleasing unto the other and not the vice versa; (3) both sides are unpleased, so none of them is described as well-pleasing unto the other one too. It is obvious that the first assumption is the best one and the third is the worst. We must try to replace the third position with the second one and then the second position with the first one. But the question is how it is possible.

One of the most important issues is belief and recognition of God which is considered as one of the most urgent needs of human beings and acts such as an intellectual light that shows the direction for human life and gives meaning to it. It also can help human beings distinguish between clean and real life from ordinary and natural. Lifestyle is one debated issues in all aspects of human life in the context of different cultures and backgrounds. Also, the family is of vital importance as a place for happiness and misery of individuals and society as well as the foundational dimension of human life. So discussion of lifestyle is very necessary in the family life debate. Theism as the first religious belief clarifies the way of life for families and has many effects in the lifestyle of family such as strengthening the faith, physical and mental health, mental peace, unity, optimism and finding meaning in life, boosting morale and giving satisfaction, virtue, easing problems and creating a spirit of tolerance.
