marriage Archives - Just One Reason

A lecture titled “20 Points to Love” by Shaykh Riad Ouarzazi:

Exchanging gifts, (It develops love between you two) it does not have to be materialistic.
Spend time together. Just you and your wife. (Vise versa)
“The look of love”. Just by looking at your wife you should know what she likes.
Warm greetings.
Praise the wife. Never compare her with someone else. Applies both ways
Participate together in the household chorus. Your work is not only outside!!
Kind words, they are Sadaqah.
Spend time OUT together.
Peaceful gatherings.
Husband has to be balanced with the YES/NO.
Show your interest, support, and care.
Change your routine. Surprise her/him.
Pamper her/him.
Don’t hide your feelings. You should be able to talk to each other (Never in front of the children).
Call her/him by her/him beautiful names
Don’t talk about your problems before bed.
Show THANKS…Jazakallahu Khair
Apologize
R-E-S-P-E-C-T
Contemplate the Seerah.

UPDATE April 2019: This post was originally published in 2012, and has gone through many revisions. However, in recent years, Sh. Omar Suleiman and the Yaqeen Institute for Islamic Research have conducted an impressive, in-depth study of this topic. So we have completely updated this page to reflect this groundbreaking research and the articles and videos they have published.

It’s important to note that for over 1400 years, the age of Aisha (ra) was never a topic of discussion. It’s only in recent years that Islamophobes have brought it up as a point of debate, and unfortunately it has also become a cause of doubt among Muslims.

The following video is the conclusion of a 4-part collection titled, “More Than Just a Number: Perspectives on the Age of Aisha (ra)”. In it, Sh. Omar Suleiman does an excellent job of breaking down this hotly debated topic, including the historical context of the time, and helps us end this debate, once and for all.
