The purpose of this paper is to study the ethics in the Holy Koran that focus on family relations. The Holy Koran explores: Allah's supreme power and authority, the accountability of individual human beings for their actions during this life, the transient nature of our current life, and the inevitability of an afterlife. Islam considers the concept of family to be mandated from Allah, therefore Islam prohibits to live single, that is, celibacy. In matters between husbands and wives, Islam also permits polygamy. Islam permits the Muslim to marry more than one woman in order to resolve some very pressing human problems, individual as well as social. Also, the prophet Muhammad said that the wives are covers for the husbands and the husbands for the wives. We have come to the conclusion that the ethics in Islam is based on the Holy Koran and Hadith ,namely, Muhammad's sayings. In matters between parents and their children, Islam teaches that it is most important for children to respect their parents. According to Koran 17:23~25, it is said that, “filial piety is the source of all virtues.” Islam does not forgive the undutiful son or daughter if they don't follow the teachings of Allah. But it must be noted that there is still room for argument about resolving the complicated and inscrutable problems between the ethics in Islam and the social surroundings against Islam in the future.
