This study investigates the influence of social norms on the handling of LGBT issues among Muslim families. The research aims to understand how social norms in Islamic society influence the way Muslim families handle LGBT members and to identify challenges and opportunities in this context. The literature review method is used to collect and analyze relevant literature from various sources. Data were collected through academic databases between February 2024 and June 2024, using keywords such as "social norms," "LGBT," and "Muslim families." Qualitative analysis was conducted on the literature findings to identify factors influencing family attitudes and behaviors towards LGBT individuals. The results show that social norms, cultural values, religious beliefs, and traditions significantly impact acceptance or rejection of LGBT family members. Despite challenges such as resistance to change, opportunities for positive change exist through education, deeper understanding of religious teachings, and community advocacy. In conclusion, inclusive and holistic change in handling LGBT issues among Muslim families requires a comprehensive approach involving a deep understanding of factors influencing family attitudes and behaviors.
