In essence, we need to remember six things to attain a blissful marriage … three Do’s and three Dont’s. We have heard many talks on Nikaah, but here is something that we can reflect and ponder on – The letter ‘A’ … There are many A’s we can add on, but the first ‘A’ which we should all have … Every husband, Every wife … is ‘ALLAH’
If you don’t have Allah in your life, then your life is not going to be a life of bliss and happiness. Forget it! Each one has got a responsibility firstly to Allah. Husband and wife are married yet there is no Salaah in their lives -There is no tilaawat of the Qur’aan – There is no Zikrullah – There is no mention of Allah and His Rasul Sallalahu alaihi wa sallam’s name in their home – How do we expect barakah to come? – How do we expect our wife to fulfill our duties? – How does the wife then expect the husband to fulfill her duties? We have to learn Deen – We have to connect ourselves to Allah – Then and only then will we enjoy our life – Otherwise it will be a life of sin and ghufflat (heedlessness) – Totally oblivious to Allah Subhanahu~Wa~Ta’ala as though He does not exist! – Let us change our conditions – Allah Subhanahu~Wa~Ta’ala will give you that peace, serenity and enjoyment in your life … If you obey Allah Subhanahu~Wa~Ta’ala …
