Abstract
The relationship between philosophy especially epistemology with sciences is considered as an important issue in any science. The purpose of this research is opening the conversation pertaining to the healing of family based on the Islamic culture via the investigation of postmodern epistemological presumptions and its criticism in view of Allameh Tabatabaee. The method of this fundamental research is a qualitative analytical description. Five foundations of epistemological postmodernism including the negation of objectivism, opposition to the subjectivism, historical interlude, negation of post narrations, and priority of language is rejected in view of Allameh Tabatabaee.
The healing of family on the basis of postmodern epistemology along with negation of the truth of family as well as the absoluteness of truth and falsity towards the issues of family believes in the negotiation in family, so the healer is not a specialist out of the family to do pathology by presenting some general decrees and patterns in favor of it. 
Whereas, family healing in view of Allameh Tabatabaee is evident with principles like the natural fact for family, the culminate aim for person, and kind of human in the atmosphere of family, the capability of verification and falsification of issues on family in line with achieving personal and generic perfection as well as the possibility of achieving factual issues on family through the wisdom, nature, revelation, and also the possibility of presenting pattern to the families by the healer. Hence, the family healer is obliged to instruct the family and do pathology and healing by considering the intellectual and belief foundations besides the native culture.
