Islam is a religion that put family well-being as one of its priorities. The discourse regarding attitudes and laws in family has long been explained in great length in Islamic familial literatures. However, the focus of the discourse usually inclines towards juridical aspect and general values. It is quite uncommon to find a writing that is authored in policy form which can be utilised as a guideline by the family. Sa‘id Hawwa is a prominent Muslim preachers who was famous for his methodological approach in writing about familial matters. This study aims to run a content analysis on Sa‘id Hawwa’s methodological writing in his Qawanin al-Bayt al-Muslim. This qualitative study utilises inductive, deductive and comparative method. This study finds that Sa‘id Hawwa’s approach very relevant to be applied in other writings on family. This is beacause he uses relax writing style, simple phrasings, avoiding denominational issues and moderate stand when discussing Sufism and denominational indifferences. Said Hawwa also explains using examples and he offers solutions besides using a narrative approach of storytelling based on his own experience. Not only is this approach proper with the need of the today’s society, it should be considered as a guideline for modern preachers in addressing the people they call. Keywords: Methods of writing, Islamic Family, Sa‘id Hawwa, Qawanin al-Bayt al-Muslim   Islam adalah sebuah agama yang sangat mementingkan kesejahteraan keluarga. Perbahasan berhubung tatatertib dan undang-undang dalam sebuah keluarga telah dibahaskan dengan panjang lebar dalam kitab-kitab kekeluargaan Islam. Tumpuan perbahasan biasanya menjurus kepada aspek hukum dan nilai-nilai umum. Jarang sekali ia disusun dalam bentuk perlembagaan ataupun polisi yang boleh dijadikan satu garis panduan sesebuah keluarga. Antara tokoh pendakwah Islam yang terkenal dengan keberkesanan metod dalam penulisan berhubung kekeluargaan ialah Said Hawwa. Justeru kajian ini akan membuat analisis kandungan terhadap metode penulisan beliau menerusi bukunya Qawanin al-Bayt al-Muslim. Kajian bersifat kualitatif ini menggunakan metode induktif, deduktif serta komparatif. Hasilnya, kajian mendapati metode yang digunakan Saad Hawwa ini sangat relevan untuk diaplikasikan dalam penulisan kekeluargaan yang lain. Penulisan beliau yang mudah, ringkas serta padat bukan sahaja dilihat menepati kehendak masyarakat sekarang bahkan ia boleh dijadikan panduan kepada para pendakwah moden dalam berhadapan dengan mad’u mereka.   Kata kunci: Metode Penulisan, Kekeluargaan Islam, Sa‘id Hawwa, Qawanin al-Bayt al-Muslim.
