The issue of domestic violence is very important because of the contradictions it holds between the function of the family that exists as an educational institution regulating the behaviors of its members within the framework of innate feelings of love and tenderness and the practice of various forms of violence within this institution. Domestic violence forms differ up to the point of psychological and physical abuse.
It is not a local phenomenon, but a global phenomenon. The study tries to explain what domestic violence is, its different forms and consequences. It further includes the status of domestic (family) violence in Egypt and the constitutional and legal framework surrounding it.
