Maintaining family ties (Silat al-Rahm) refers to the act of connecting and bonding with relatives and family members. This practice holds a high status in Islamic and Iranian culture and is considered a key factor in fostering social solidarity and individual growth. The purpose of this article is to examine the effects and consequences of maintaining family ties in modern human life—an era where the growth of technology and social changes have altered people's lifestyles, sometimes leading to a decline in family connections. This research employs a qualitative analysis method and a study of religious and social sources to investigate the impact of maintaining family ties on improving morale, reducing stress, strengthening empathy, and promoting mental health. Furthermore, the negative consequences of severing family ties have also been discussed. The results indicate that maintaining family ties not only creates peace and increases motivation in individuals but also acts as a preventive factor against mental and social problems such as depression and feelings of loneliness. Finally, given the positive outcomes of maintaining family ties, it is recommended that individuals, under all circumstances and even by utilizing technology, strive to maintain and strengthen their family connections.
