I have personally seen many individuals, both men and women, being held back by an idealistic frame of mind. Their mindset is influenced by media, other married people, and other sources which lead them to expect that some ideal person/package is waiting somewhere in this world for him or her to marry.

You are still in school or in college or in middle of looking for a job to get settle, and you are asked by the family about getting married. What to do? Go for marriage and see what happens or settle yourself first and then marry. 

Every human has physiological and psychological requirements that need to be fulfilled.  Islam being the most natural religion of all is a strong advocate of marriage. The Prophet (PBUH) said “there is no celibacy in Islam”. Islam never recommends extremes in any matter of life including marriage for its believers.

Thinking of getting married? Do you know the exact rationale behind this decision? It is very important to be mentally prepared before going into marriage. Often couples wonder after marriage why they married in the first place.

Marriage is a sacred institution. It is commonly said that God has made pair for everyone but the two people are united only when God desires. This world is very large. It is divided into a number of cultures and civilizations. Every civilization has some past. The ancient practices and the rituals that have been taking place since centuries play a great role in influencing the culture of every society.

Muslim marriage as in other faiths is a sacred institution. It is a moral contract binding between a Muslim man and a Muslim woman. Muslim marriages are performed according to the laws of the Islamic Shariah. Islamic marriages are generally arranged marriages by the parents.

Muslim conferences and conventions (like the one being held by the Islamic Society of North America & Muslim American Society, Imam W. D. Mohammad, this Labor Day weekend) are just one of the many places Muslims in North America often meet potential spouses either to make a decision or to initiate the marriage communication process.

Other places include fundraising dinners, regional seminars, lectures, at the home of a relative or friend, and the local mosque.
