Becoming Better People In Marriage

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم 

Marriage is half of the religion. Religion is good character. Man and woman get married because it brings people together. People who prioritize the marriage will become better people and all marriages are capable of succeeding but it needs a prophetic character. People who want to be better will grow as people through marriage. Such marriage completes his/her religion.

 يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلنَّاسُ إِنَّا خَلَقْنَٰكُم مِّن ذَكَرٍ وَأُنثَىٰ وَجَعَلْنَٰكُمْ شُعُوبًا وَقَبَآئِلَ لِتَعَارَفُوٓا۟ ۚ إِنَّ أَكْرَمَكُمْ عِندَ ٱللَّهِ أَتْقَىٰكُمْ ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَلِيمٌ خَبِيرٌ ‎﴿١٣﴾

O mankind, indeed We have created you from male and female and made you peoples and tribes that you may know one another. Indeed, the most noble of you in the sight of Allah is the most righteous of you. Indeed, Allah is Knowing and Acquainted. [Quran, Al Hujurat 49:13]

Marriage is NOT supposed to be easy. It causes you to step out of your comfort zone. Sayyidina Omar radhiyallahu anhu said marry strangers. From that we understand that there is not much benefit in marrying into life you already know because you are not doing anything.

Islam is about dealing with people, not staying home idling, just letting the days pass without changing. Allah created us as a creation that changes (to the better of course).

رَبَّنَا هَبْ لَنَا مِنْ أَزْوَٰجِنَا وَذُرِّيَّٰتِنَا قُرَّةَ أَعْيُنٍ وَٱجْعَلْنَا لِلْمُتَّقِينَ إِمَامًا 

Our Lord, grant us from among our wives and offspring comfort to our eyes and make us an example for the righteous. [Quran, Al Furqan 26:74]
