Abstract
The current research study aimed to explore the availability of educational requirements that assist in achieving family cohesion within the secondary-school Islamic education curriculum in Palestine. The study also aimed to propose educational requirements for the secondary-school Islamic education curriculum needed to achieve family cohesion in the Palestinian society from Islamic education teachers' and supervisors' points of view in Tulkarm. A descriptive-analytical research design including both quantitative and qualitative research methods was used in this research study. The validity and reliability of the research instruments including a content analysis instrument with 18 requirements and an interview protocol with 3 questions, were already robust. The first and second parts of the secondary-school Islamic curriculum textbook were chosen from the study population as a sample for the present research. Two supervisors of Islamic education from the educational directorate "Tulkarm" were selected using a comprehensive survey approach to be involved in the sample for the study, in addition to 7 teachers of secondary-school Islamic education from Tulkarm were selected using a simple sampling technique. The study findings confirmed a total of 69 recurrences for the educational requirements to achieve family cohesion within the secondary-school Islamic education curriculum as following; 27 recurrences in the two textbooks of the 10th-grade (39.13%), 33 recurrences in the two textbooks of the 11th-grade (47.83%), and 9 recurrences in the two textbooks of the 12th-grade (13.04%). Supervisors and teachers emphasized the critical role of educational requirements for the Palestinian family and society from different perspectives. They have also reported that these educational requirements are few, and suggested more requirements that could assist in achieving family cohesion within the Islamic education curriculum. Based on the study findings, it has been recommended to balance the recurrences of educational requirements that assist in achieving family cohesion within the Islamic education curriculum, in addition to redesigning the secondary-school Islamic curriculum textbooks to meet family cohesion in light of the era of information and communication technology and challenges faced by the Palestinian family.
