The concept of family security has occupied a prominent position in various humanities studies. This study is based on two basic hypotheses. The first relates to family security. Here, we highlight two points: First, family security is an ongoing, dynamic process. Family security refers to the sense of safety, security, and protection enjoyed by family members, enabling them to safely exercise their political, economic, and social rights, thereby ensuring their status and role in society. Second, security at the private and public levels, for the individual and society, is interconnected and integrated, and cannot be separated. The relationship between them is one of interdependence, influence, and impact, with each affecting and being affected by the other, both positively and negatively. The individual is the core of the family, and the family constitutes the basic cell of society.
The second relates to sustainable development. Sustainable development is a societal process in which all groups and classes must contribute in a harmonious manner. Consequently, the lack of family security leads to insecurity, which will impact the state's efforts to achieve societal development, particularly with regard to the Sustainable Development Goals. This leads us to acknowledge the interconnected, complementary relationship between family security and the achievement of sustainable development goals. This means that development cannot be achieved without family security and a secure and stable citizenry, and vice versa.
Keywords: Family security – Sustainable development – Social security – Domestic violence – Poverty and unemployment.

The family is the foundation of all societies, and constitutions and laws guarantee its protection. The family is the true nucleus and foundation of society, and its security is a necessity for human life, whether as an individual or a family. To the extent that it is secure, individuals are able to exercise their rights and duties. However, the family may face threats and instability. Therefore, constitutions and laws have established guarantees to protect the family\'s security, ensuring that it is encompassed in all aspects of their lives, both materially and morally—that is, all areas of life.

Muslim jurists address the topic of inheritance (as a form of compulsory succession in wealth after death) through detailed jurisprudential rulings that clarify who the heirs are, the reasons for their entitlement, and the specific shares of inheritance they are due—all based on the available evidences in this regard

Muslim jurists have differed in their rulings related to inheritance, leading to the emergence of distinct inheritance systems, which vary in their foundations, characteristics, evidentiary bases, and detailed provisions.
The two most prominent of these systems are: (1) the inheritance system commonly adopted by the majority (Ahl al-Sunnah), and (2) the inheritance system followed by the Imamiyyah (Shi’a) .

In truth, the Iraqi legislator has taken a specific stance on these well-known inheritance systems in Islamic jurisprudence, a stance clearly expressed in the section on inheritance within the effective Iraqi Personal Status Law No. 188 of 1959 (as amended). The most recent amendment to this stance was made under Law No. 1 of 2025 .
This research attempts to explore the features of the Iraqi legal position regarding the adoption of these well-known Islamic inheritance systems. It begins by introducing these systems and highlighting their key differences, then examines the relevant legislative texts and their amendments. Finally, it analyzes the interpretations of these texts by Iraqi jurisprudence and judiciary in order to arrive at a general conclusion about the clarity and effectiveness of the Iraqi legislator’s adopted stance on this matter .

Through this study, in both its realistic and perspective aspects, we seek to explain the legal foundations or principles adopted by the legislator in Personal Status Law No. (188) of 1959 as amended, in a realistic manner through his precise policy of enhancing intellectual security when raising a family, through two methods ( Complete education and care for the child when instilling conceptsIt is correct, disciplined, moderate and not deviant. At the religious, social, legal, and economic levels, in preparation for its reflection on his or her behavior within conservative societies. There is no doubt that the legislator’s interest in this was not a matter of chance, but rather it was planned and deliberate, as he took care to provide these legal principles: (such as alimony, breastfeeding,(custody, proof of lineage, etc.) and creating all appropriate conditions for them, reflects the will of the legislator to maximize the role of the effective family in establishing intellectual security in Iraqi society, even if the reference to these principles was implicit, but we look forward to the foreseeable policy of the Iraqi legislator being regulated A more active and clear legal systemAnd frankly in emphasizing the issue of intellectual security and all aspects surrounding it within the framework of the aforementioned law, and in a manner consistent with the Iraqi Constitution (of 2005 in force) and the relevant local laws, and in a way that achieves a religious, social and legislative balance.
