Marriage is meant to be an environment where
you keep no secrets from your partner. They
are your confident. You get to know each
other better than anyone else in the world.
The one who you get to be yourself
around.
You don't need to pretend around your partner.
Marriage is about give and take of mutual
fulfillment
and mutual satisfaction.
Now you get to be with your buddy,
your companion, your best friend, and your lover.
You get to grow old with this person
and go on a lifelong adventure of self
discovery.
The one whose soul you fall in love
with.
The love remains constant even after the passion
is gone.
The one whose
steady burning ember
continues of true love
even after the wrinkles have set in, even
after the passion has died down.
Whenever you look at them, you feel contentment
in your heart. Why? Because you're with the
one that Allah has created just for you.
Now the beautiful verse in Suratul Rum where
Allah talks about marriage, I love so much
and I dissect each and every line of
that verse.
It goes like this.
And amongst his signs is that he has
created for you mates from amongst yourselves. He
has created for you mates
from amongst yourselves that you may dwell in
tranquility with them. Ah, my goodness. That you
may live in peace and tranquility
with your partner
and that he has put love and mercy
between your hearts.
