Abstract

Abstract
The most basic word in the Holy Qur'an refers to the concept of family. The present article aims to discover its basic meaning and conceptual scope by analyzing and describing the lexical and Quranic uses of the word "Ahl" and based on that, reinterpret "Ahl" in verse 6 of Surah Tahirim. The results of the research are that among the 5 meanings expressed for "family" in the word, its basic meaning is human and family, and the other 4 meanings go back to the meaning of human, and in the Qur'an in the meanings: nuclear family, extended, The inhabitants of a place, those who live with a person, the followers of the holy books. Therefore, it seems that this word in verse 6 of Surah Tahirim can be interpreted to different levels of the family and at least it can be extended to mercy and relatives, as a result, God in this verse calls all relatives to compassion and efforts for guidance and happiness of all levels. The family is ordered from nuclear to extended in order of priority, and to protect them from the fire of hell with various educational methods, including the commandment of the good and the prohibition of the bad.
Key words: Ahl, family, conceptualization, Holy Quran, Aiah 6 of Soorah Tahrim
