The most important decision usually people make is who to marry<\/a> <\/strong>and choose the right spouse. So, It takes more than love to make a successful marriage<\/a><\/strong>. Because\u00a0marriage is<\/a> <\/strong>one of the most recommended acts in Islam.<\/p>\n

Hazrat Muhammad (S.A.W.W) says:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThe person who marries, safeguards half of his religion.\u201d<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Freedom of Choice for Muslims:<\/h3>\n

Above all, Islam has given freedom of choice<\/a><\/strong> to those who wish to get married. The mutual choice of the groom and bride is of the highest consideration. Islam does not allow anyone to be forced into a marriage.<\/a> <\/strong>Marriage is recommended for partners who want to share a common way of life.<\/p>\n

Normally the criteria for selecting a matrimonial<\/a><\/strong> spouse are many such as wealth, job rank, beauty, compatibility, cast, education, character,<\/strong> etc. But the Quran enjoins Muslims to select partners who are good<\/strong> and pure<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

“Women of purity are for men of purity, and men of purity are for women of purity.”<\/strong><\/p>\n

(Quran 24:26)<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Hazrat Muhammad (S.A.W.W) recommended Muslims to select those partners<\/a><\/strong> who are best in religion and morality.<\/p>\n

Hazrat Muhammad (S.A.W.W) says:<\/p>\n

“Do not choose a wife<\/a> for her wealth or beauty. Her wealth will cause her rebellion, and her beauty will cause her corruption. You must consider her faith and religiousness for marriage.” <\/strong><\/p>\n

[Mustadrak al-Vasa’il, On Marriage Ch. 13]<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Find the Right Spouse:<\/h3>\n

Islam has given<\/a> <\/strong>freedom of choice to those who wish to get married. Because the mutual choice of the spouses is given the highest consideration.<\/p>\n

“Do not prevent them from marrying their husbands when<\/a> they agree between themselves in a lawful manner.”<\/strong><\/p>\n

(Quran 2:232)<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Imam Jafar as sadiq said:<\/p>\n

\u201cDo not marry the one you love,<\/a> love the one you marry.\u201d<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This shows that true love grows after marriage and falling in love is not<\/a><\/strong> a pre-condition for marriage in Islam<\/a><\/strong>. However, for the purpose of selecting an appropriate spouse, the two people involved are allowed to see and talk to each other within Islamic boundaries.<\/p>\n

Hazrat Muhammad (S.A.W.W) said:<\/p>\n

“When one of you seeks a woman in marriage<\/a>, and then if he is able to have a look at whom he wishes to marry, let him do so.”<\/strong><\/p>\n

(Abu Dawood).<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

So, the process selection<\/strong> of<\/a> spouses should be a function of a healthy balance between the freedom of choice<\/a> <\/strong>of the spouses and consideration of the influence and consent of the parents<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

“A woman may be married<\/a> for four reasons: for her property, for her rank, for her beauty, and for her religion (and character),<\/strong><\/p>\n

So marry the one<\/a> who is best in the religion and character and prosper.” <\/strong><\/p>\n

(Bukhari and Muslim)<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It is the responsibility of the Muslim community to help those who are seeking marriage<\/a><\/strong> in fulfilling half of their faith. So, To all those who are single and are finding it hard to select the right spouse, seek help from ALLAH SWT to get married<\/a><\/strong>. Make dua to ALLAH for the right spouse as a pious husband<\/a><\/strong> or wife who<\/a> <\/strong>will be a blessing for you, your family insha’Allah.<\/p>\n

ALLAH SWT always knows BEST!<\/strong><\/p>\n
