This article is devoted to the issue of women's resilience in sustainability of family life on the example of the poems “Shah-Name” by Firdawsi and “Khamse” by Nizami Gyanjevi. Coexistence and peace in society are in many ways associated with the stability of families and the culture of family upbringing and the key to social well-being is, first of all, were in the hands of women and their steadfastness in preserving family life. In general, the corner-stone of the family, that is creating a home-hearth and raising children is considered as one of the important and key issues in human society, and it occupies a special place in the history of Persian-Tajik literature, since a prosperous healthy family and a decent upbringing of children are the factors of welfare and development of countries in all societies. Moral and educational teachings in this matter in conjunction with the issues of healthy family, fulfillment of maternal responsibilities and proper education of children expounded in these two great literary productions play a constructive role in raising a prosperous family in modern society as well. For example, one of the main issues raised in an artistic vein in separate poems “Shah-Name” by Firdawsi and “Khamse” by Nizami is that one creating a family merged into a worthy couple, which would peacefully coexist in the family. In our a medieval literature writers touching upon this issue based on their literary outlook gave it a special development. Firdawsi in "Shah-Nam", which is the national epos of the Iranian peoples, puts the morality of women in the first place in family life. Nizami in the five poems of "Khamse" considers the greatness of women to be a guiding thread. In the examples analyzed in the article the attitude of two outstanding Tajik poets to the depiction of exemplary stability of a healthy family targeted at preserving of family life is clearly visible as highly elevated.
