“Among His signs is that He created for you mates from among yourselves, in order to have tranquility with them and He put love and mercy between your (hearts) : verily in that are signs for those who reflect.” [30:21]
“A man at the masjid was telling me that if it wasn’t for his wife, he would have been destroyed. She struggled with him for 18 years to get him to perform Salah [prayer]. She used to bring him wudu water and he used to throw it away. But with her persistence and struggle, he now prays 5 times a day in the Masjid. He was in tears talking about how much he loves his wife. Don’t take a good woman for granted.”
May Allah grant her the highest level in Jannah and have mercy upon her husband so he may meet her there. Ameen
According to the Prophet, real men aren't those who have big arms and are able to strike fear in the hearts of people. A real man is the one who gifts his heart to his mother and wife and showers them with love and honour in every time and place for the sake of Allah and His Beloved. صلى الله عليه و سلم
- Shaykh Muhammad Aslam
Marry someone who walks on the path of the Prophet of God, because even he has tie rocks to his stomach out of your hunger, your smile shall forever be enough to fill his heart and soul. صلى الله عليه و سلم
- Shaykh Mohammed Aslam
“People talk about love stories and forget that Allah chose for you a spouse before you were even born and made you travel through life just so that one day you could find each other, connect and fulfil the destiny of Allah.”
— Shaykh Mohammed Aslam
"Love isn't just deeply caring for a person when they are looking beautiful and when they are totally free of shortcomings. Love is when you see the lack of perfection of a person, his sins and mistakes, yet you still cry for them because you yearn for them so much. That is Rasoolallah's love for each of us. ﷺ"
~ Shaykh Mohammed Aslam
"If you don't make losing your ego the purpose of your marriage then your marriage will be like hell. Marriage is about purifying your ego"
- Shaykh Muhammad Adeyinka Mendes
"Don't get married because you're lonely, broke, broken-hearted, or unfulfilled in life; get married because you have found someone of the opposite gender who truly mirrors your spiritual approach to The Creator, compliments your personality, and will completely support you in your unique life purpose and mission no matter what."
It was narrated from Ibn Abbas that the Messenger of Allah said: “There is nothing like marriage, for two who love one another.”
There are many, myself included, who felt feelings for their spouse before marriage. The beauty of Islam is that love and feelings for another person are recognized, normalized, and given a place to rest, which is marriage.
Feelings of love are amazing, but the best place for it *is* marriage, not just because of our moral rules on marriage, but because true love is about commitment,
and about supporting another person in the worship of Allah during the best of times and the hardest of times.
Love serves a higher purpose, and for purpose to be realized, there needs to be some structure and some stability.
Alhamdulilah for the love Allah grants us, and the boundaries he gives us for love to blossom into full bloom.
Falling in love = two people taking risks to put their heart on their sleeve and do everything in their power to impress the other person. First in small tiny ways, and then progressing into bigger ways.
You can fall again too if you do what you did at the beginning of your marriage consistently in the present.
Most of the wives of the major scholars married these amazing men whilst they still were ‘nobodies’ and similarly you teach your wife (with gentleness) how to be romantic and it is all a journey.
