| my brothers in Islam.... By getting married you are
not just getting a wife, you are getting your whole world. From now until the
rest of your days your wife will be your partner, your companion, and your best
friend. She will share your moments, your days, and your years. She will share
your joys and sorrows, your successes and failures, your dreams and your fears. When you are ill, she will
take the best care of you; when you need help, she will do all she can for you.
When you have a secret, she will keep it; when you need advice, she will give
you the best advice. She will always be with
you: when you wake up in the morning the first thing your eyes will see will be
hers; during the day, she will be with you, if for a moment she is not with you
by her physical body, she will be thinking of you, praying for you with all her
heart, mind, and soul; when you go to sleep at night, the last thing your eyes
will see will be her; and when you are asleep you will still see her in your
dreams. In short, she will be your whole world and you will be her whole world. The best description that I
personally have ever read describing the closeness of the spouses to each other
is the Qur'anic verse which says: "They are your garments and you are their garments" (Surah Al Baqarah 2:187). But Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala knows that the human heart is not a static entity, it is sometimes weak and at times dynamic. Feelings can and do change with time. Love may wither and fade away. The marital bond might weaken if not properly cared for. Happiness in marriage cannot be taken for granted; continuous happiness requires constant giving from both sides For the tree of marital
love to remain alive and keep growing, the soil has to be sustained,
maintained, watered and nurtured. Remember that you will be rewarded by Allah
Subhanahu wa Ta'ala for any emotions you show to your wife as the Prophet (saw)
said : "One would be rewarded for anything that he does seeking the
pleasure of Allah even the food that he puts in
the mouth of his wife". Never underestimate the importance of seemingly little things as putting food in your wife's mouth, opening the car's door for her, etc. Remember that the Prophet (saw) used to extend his knee to his wife to assist her up to ride the camel. Try to always find some time for both of you to pray
together. Strengthening the bond between you and Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala is
the best guarantee that your own marital bond would always remain strong.
Having peace with Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala will always result in having more
peace at home. | |
