HOW CAN YOU GET A PERFECT PARTNER BASE ON ISLAMIC TEACHING? 
TIP NO#1:

WHAT IS MARRIAGE FOR? 

"When a servant (of Allah) marries, he perfects half his religion; and let him fear Allah with regard to the remaining half." 
(Hadith from Baihaqi)

Marriage in Islam is encouraged for those who have reached the age of physical and psycho logical maturity. It should not be unnecessarily delayed if there is a suitable partner available and the means to establish a family. Divorced people, widows and widowers are also encouraged to re-marry. Religious celibacy is strongly discouraged. Therefore although marriage is not a compulsory duty for all people under all circumstances and due allowance is made for those who do not have the capacity for marriage for one reason or other, the emphasis is nevertheless strongly in favour of marriage as the normal adult status. 
What are the benefits of this positive attitude to marriage?

1, Marriage is a permanent relationship between a man and a woman, which provides for their mutual care, and for the lawful development and expression of love between them. It links physical love with personal care and responsibility towards the partner and towards any children that may be born of the union. 

2. It is only in the context of marriage that a woman is protected for her vital role as the mother of the next generation. Modern experiments with free love, unmarried motherhood and single parent families have only confirmed their disruptive social and economic effects, particularly on women and their disastrous consequences for the next generation. Children need both parents for a secure and well¬ adjusted childhood.

3. The benefit of marriage is not only to the wife and children and to the society at large, but also to the husband. Recent studies in the United Kingdom have revealed that while divorce causes suffering to both partners it appeared to cause even more depression among husbands than wives. The value of a wife in providing psychological comfort as well as physical love should not be under-estimated. The man without the responsibilities and comforts of a wife and family is more exposed to temptations of unlawful sexual relations and deviant behaviour. It cannot be a mere coincidence that the decline of marriage in the western world today has been accompanied by a rise in aggressive homosexuality, pornography, child sexual abuse and the danger of rape - even of small girls and old women.

The Qur'an has referred to the marriage relationship as one of Allah's wonders that enshrines the greatest and most transforming of all human emotions - love:

What makes a Good Blog?

What Makes for a Good Blog?

My friends at Six Apart recently asked me to make a list of blogs that I enjoy. I think they're planning to use it for their new Blogs.com project. Unfortunately, I'm late getting it to them (typical), but if it's still useful, I'll post it here in a day or four.

As I think about the blogs I've returned to over the years -- and the increasingly few new ones that really grab my attention -- I want to start with, ironically enough, a list. Here's what I think helps make for a good blog.

What Makes for a Good Blog?

The concept of true love in Islam

No religion urges its followers to adopt mutual love, affection and intimacy like the religion of Islam. This should be the case at all times, not just on specific days. Islam encourages showing affection and love towards each other all the time. In a Hadeeth (narration), the Prophet, sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ), said: “When a man loves his brother, he should tell him that he loves him.” [Abu Daawood and At-Tirmithi]

In another Hadeeth, he said: “By Him in Whose Hand my soul is, you will not enter Paradise unless you believe, and you will not believe unlessyou love each other.Should I direct you to something that if you constantly did it, you wouldlove each other? Spread the greetings of peace among you.” [Muslim]

Moreover, the Muslim’s affection includes inanimate beings. Talking about the Mountain of Uhud, the Prophet, sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) said: “This is Uhud, a mountain which loves us and we love it.” [Al-Bukhaari and Muslim]

 

In life there are time we need to sacrifice for something. Love, love is of course one of the risky feelings that we feel.

 

It also involves sacrifice. We are sacrifices something over one another to the extent that we are going to drop one thing and raise the other.

 

In my life, I made a greatest sacrifice for love. God know, this is my feeling and how I held to it. I am only a human that sometimes went wrong, but whatever it is I will call it sacrifice.

 

I was 15 before when I started to fall in love.

I was so in love and almost drop my study. My mother told me to choose, study or marriage. She says, when I choose to study, I will go for study, and when I choose marriage then I will go for it.

 

On that early age I witness some of my cousins who finished their studies but they do not have a job, maybe because of racial discrimination in our country.
