Abstract
This article explores positive behavioural practices among married Muslim couples in Terengganu that contribute to harmonious family life. Using a qualitative design through semi-structured interviews with nine participants, the study identifies key themes of marital well-being, including mutual respect, patience, shared responsibility, emotional support, tolerance, communication, and spiritual practices. The findings reveal that sustainable happiness within a family is closely tied to Islamic moral values. The study concludes that positive marital practices among Muslim couples in Terengganu are grounded in Islamic ethical principles that promote sakinah (tranquility), mawaddah (affection), and rahmah (compassion) within the family.
Keywords: Positive marital practices, Muslim family, Terengganu, Islamic ethics
