Waleematu Nikāh is worship, and it is meant to be easy.
It was practically done inside the house at the time of the Prophet ﷺ; they had public spaces then but they all chosed to hold it at their homes, even not inside the Masjid.
Today, we copy non-Muslim events. This leads to wrongdoing and debt from expensive halls.

Providing for a man by taking on his financial responsibilities may feel like love in the beginning—but over time, it can slowly take away from his growth.
Instead of helping him rise, it can unintentionally make him dependent, comfortable in a role he was never meant to stay in. What starts as “cute” or temporary can later turn into frustration, imbalance, and even resentment on both sides.
In Islam, the man is entrusted to be the provider—the qawwam. This isn’t a burden placed on him to struggle alone, but a role that gives him purpose, responsibility, and accountability before Allah.
And the woman is not meant to carry that weight. She is honored with a different role—one that nurtures, supports, and builds the home without being consumed by financial pressure.
When a woman steps into providing out of necessity, that’s one thing. But consistently taking over his responsibility can limit his potential to grow into the man he is meant to be.
Support him. Encourage him. Make du’a for him.
But don’t take away the very responsibility that will shape him into a stronger man.
A balanced system exists for a reason—and when both roles are honored, there is sakinah, stability, and barakah in the marriage.

The cursed nikaah halala which the hanafis say it's praiseworthy and permissible
There is only valid way of doing nikah, which is to have the intention of living together as husband and wife for one’s lifetime. A planned one-night’s nikah is no nikah. It is simply zina.
According to the Hanafis, if a husband and wife split up and they wish to reconcile but they cannot because an irrevocable talaaq has been issued. Upon learning about this, a third person decides to help reconcile the marriage. So he marries the divorcee, consummates the relationship and divorces her. All this happens without him divulging his intention to anyone else. This will be permissible.
What Islam says about this type of marriage.
The muhallil is the one who marries a woman and divorces her so that she can go back to her first husband, and the muhallal lahu is the first husband.
Abd al-Razzaaq (6/2650 narrated that ‘Umar ibn al-Khattaab (may Allah be pleased with him) said whilst addressing the people: “By Allah, no muhallil or muhallal lahu will be brought to me but I will stone them.”
This applies whether he states his intention clearly when doing the marriage contract and they stipulate that when he has made her permissible for her first husband he will divorce her, or they do not stipulate that and he intends it to himself only.
Al-Haakim narrated from Naafi’ that a man said to Ibn ‘Umar: I married a woman and made her permissible for her first husband, and he did not tell me to do that and he did not know. He said: No, marriage should be based on genuine intentions; if you like her then keep her, and if you do not like her then leave her. He said: At the time of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) we would regard that as zina. And he said: They will still be adulterers, even if they remain for twenty years.

Patience With Women
Shaykh Abū Bakr Ibn Al-Labbād rahimahullah had a sharp-tongued wife, to the point that one day, she said offensive speech to him.
So, his companions said to him, “Divorce her and we will fulfil her right.”
He replied, “I fear that if I were to divorce her, a Muslim would be trialled with her, and perhaps Allāh has spared me a great calamity through her. Indeed I have preserved her with her father, for I had proposed to a group and they all rejected me, but he married me off, and treated me beautifully. Then, should I repay his kindness by divorcing his daughter?”
And he used to say, “For every Muslim is a trial, and she is my trial.”

"Man calls his wife to the bed"
What should a man do if he sees a woman whose beauty amazes him? The role of the wife in answering the call of her husband to intimacy.
Imām At-Tirmidhī (d. 279H) stated: “Chapter: That which is has been revealed concerning a man who sees a woman and becomes amazed with her [beauty].” Then he reported [with his chain narration] that Jābir Ibn Abdullah said:
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم رَأَى امْرَأَةً فَدَخَلَ عَلَى زَيْنَبَ فَقَضَى حَاجَتَهُ وَخَرَجَ وَقَالَ إِنَّ الْمَرْأَةَ إِذَا أَقْبَلَتْ أَقْبَلَتْ فِي صُورَةِ شَيْطَانٍ فَإِذَا رَأَى أَحَدُكُمُ امْرَأَةً فَأَعْجَبَتْهُ فَلْيَأْتِ أَهْلَهُ فَإِنَّ مَعَهَا مِثْلَ الَّذِي مَعَهَا
“The Prophet ﷺ (salallāhu ʿalaihi wasallam) saw a woman, so he went to [his wife] Zainab (RA) to fulfil his need. Then he came out [to us] and said: ‘Indeed when the woman approaches, she approaches in the image of a devil (i.e., the devil makes her enticing). So when one of you sees a woman that he is amazed by, let him go to his wife,
-- for indeed with her his wife the same as what is with that woman.’”
(Reported by At-Tirmidhī, no. 1158. Graded saheeh by Shaikh Al-Albānī. See As-Saheehah, no. 235)

The words of Ibn Al-Qayim, almost 700 years ago...
Read carefully and take heed!
“There is no doubt that allowing for the women to mix freely with the men is the origin of every trial and evil, and it is from the greatest reasons for the descending of punishment which encompasses everyone just as it is from the reasons for corruption of the general and specific affairs.
Mixing between men and women is the reason for the increase of fawaahish (lewdness) and fornication, and it is from the reasons for general death and contagious diseases.
When the prostitutes mixed with the hosts of Musa and began to commit acts of faahishah (prostitution) amongst them, Allah sent the diseases to them so that in one day 70,000 people died. And the story is well known in the books of tafsīr.
So from the greatest reasons for general death is the abundance of al-Zināʾ (fornication) brought about by allowing women to mix freely with men and walk amongst them beautified wearing makeup. If the rulers knew what that contained from corruption of the dunyā and the people under their custody with regards to the religion, then they would be the most stern in the prevention of that.
ʿAbdullāh ibn Masʿūd (may Allāh be pleased with him) said: “When al-Zināʾ spreads in a village then Allāh permits its destruction.”

A man doesn't need the permission of his wife or parents to get married again!
He needs to be a real man, financially capable of opening 2 houses, being fair and just and also wise in dealing with both wives.

Your Imam might not say this before marriage… but ignoring it can cost you your peace.
Please marry someone who is close to your level of imaan and your halal–haram ratio. Don’t marry a “project” thinking you’ll fix them. That mindset doesn’t build marriage, it builds resentment and ends in divorce.
Compatibility in Islam is not just about vibes or families getting along. It’s about how seriously you both take Allah’s commands in your everyday life.
Look at the halal–haram ratio in practical terms:
- One of you won’t miss salah, the other “prays when I can.”
- One is careful about , the other sees it as “normal in today’s world.”
- One lowers the gaze and guards modesty, the other follows anything and everything online.
- One prioritizes halal income, the other is comfortable with “it’s not that serious", you cannot succeed without riba in this dunya.
- One is striving to memorize Qur’an, the other barely engages with it beyond Ramadan.
- One wants a simple, barakah-filled life, the other is chasing dunya at any cost.
These are not “small differences.” These are foundational fractures.
And even if you marry someone on a similar level, ask the harder question:
Where are we both trying to go?
Are you both content staying where you are… or are you actively trying to grow?
- Is he willing to earn less temporarily to pursue Islamic knowledge and live within halal limits?
- Is she willing to simplify her lifestyle while focusing on Qur’an, deen, and building a home with barakah?
- Are you both okay sacrificing certain comforts for the sake of Allah?
Many marriages don’t break because of lack of love, they break because of different directions in deen.
You’ll see it all the time:
- A couple starts off non-practicing. The husband becomes practicing, and suddenly expects his wife to wear niqab overnight. She’s not there yet. The gap creates tension, then distance.
- Or the wife grows in deen, while the husband doesn’t pray, deals in riba, and brings in haram income. She feels spiritually suffocated. The marriage collapses.
Growth is beautiful but misaligned growth can break a marriage.
Before you marry, have honest conversations:
What does your deen look like in 3 to 5 years?
What are your non-negotiables?
Where are you flexible and where are you not?
And be real about your own journey.
I’ve personally said no to proposals where I was asked to compromise on my niqab or where my goals like memorizing Qur’an were dismissed as “too much" or being extreme in deen.
And I’ve seen sisters rejected for wanting more modesty, or for being too active in the community, or not fitting someone else’s rigid expectations.
This goes both ways.
Also stop rushing reverts into marriage. Give them space to learn Islam, to breathe, to build a foundation. And please, leave the outdated obsession of fetishizing white reverts behind. This is deen, not a trend.
And one more thing:
If someone says, “This is how I am, I won’t change take it or leave it,” believe them. That’s not confidence that’s a lack of growth mindset. Their ego is guiding them and not the deen of Allah.
Choose someone who is humble enough to evolve. Who takes criticism. Who listens to their spouse.
It’s better to be single and at peace than married and constantly struggling in your soul.
Don’t marry someone far above you that you feel overwhelmed…
And don’t marry someone far below you that you feel alone in your deen.
Marry someone who is walking towards Allah at a pace you can walk together.
🤲 May Allah grant us spouses who grow with us in iman, who soften with reminders, and who walk with us towards Jannah until our last breath. May Allah protect us from unions that distance us from Him, and bless us with hearts that remain sincere, humble, and open to growth - Allahumma Ameen.

If a woman becomes sharp-tongued, her place in a man’s heart and home does not last long.
Ibn Al-Jawzi rahimahullah said:
“A sensible woman, if she finds a righteous husband who suits her, should strive to please him and avoid anything that may hurt him. If she harms him or does things he dislikes, it can cause him to grow tired of her, and those feelings may remain in his heart. Then, if he gets the chance, he may leave her or choose someone else. He may find another, while she may not find someone in return. And it is known that even something pleasant can become tiresome—so what about something disliked?”
Shaykh Al-Islām Ibn Taymiyyah said:
“After the rights of Allah and His Messenger, there is no duty upon a woman more important than the right of her husband.” [Majmūʿ al-Fatāwā 32/260]

A stable marriage needs more than just love. It needs emotional safety.
Love is important, but it’s not always enough to handle stress, misunderstandings, or hard days. What makes a relationship strong is when both partners feel safe—safe to speak, safe to feel, and safe to be themselves without fear of being hurt or judged.
Emotional safety is built through patience, kind words, listening, and choosing to respond with care even during disagreements.
When love is combined with emotional safety, the relationship becomes calmer, stronger, and more secure.

He said: "My Lord! How can I have a son, when my wife is barren, and I have reached the extreme old age."

*Today’s Topic: Intimacy and Sexual Rights in Marriage in Islam*
Marriage in Islam is not just a social contract. It is an act of worship, a source of tranquility, and a protection for the heart, body, and soul. Allah says in the Qur’an that spouses are garments for one another — covering, protecting, beautifying, and comforting each other. Among the strongest pillars of this bond is intimacy. But let’s be honest — this is one area many people misunderstand, misuse, or completely ignore.
Intimacy is a right, not a favor. In Islam, intimacy is not something one spouse begs for or earns like a reward. It is a mutual right. Just as a husband has desires, a wife also has desires. Just as a man seeks comfort, a woman also seeks warmth, affection, and connection. The Prophet ﷺ made it clear that fulfilling each other’s needs is part of righteousness. He even taught that intimacy between spouses is rewarded like charity, because it protects both from sin. So this matter is not small. It is _‘ibadah_.
When intimacy becomes a weapon, homes suffer in silence. Some women, when there is conflict, turn intimacy into punishment. They become still like a log of wood — no response, no warmth, no effort. Some completely deny their husbands access for long periods. Others show coldness, silence, or emotional distance in bed. Let’s be clear: this is not just about physical denial. It is emotional disconnection. And over time, it can destroy a marriage quietly. Islam does not support using intimacy as a weapon of control or revenge. Yes, disagreements will happen. Every marriage faces tests. But dragging those issues into the bedroom, turning a place of mercy into a battlefield — that is dangerous.
But balance is important, and this topic must be handled with justice and wisdom. A woman is not expected to respond with love if she is being oppressed, neglected, disrespected, or emotionally abused. Islam does not command blind submission. It commands mutual kindness — _mu‘āsharah bil ma‘rūf_. So if a man is failing in his duties — no care, no affection, no provision — then he should first fix himself before demanding his rights.
The bedroom reflects the heart. What happens in the bedroom is often a reflection of what happens outside it. If there is no communication, no appreciation, and no emotional connection, then intimacy becomes dry, forced, or even resisted. But when there is kind words, gentle touch, respect and understanding, then intimacy becomes natural, beautiful, and fulfilling.
Spice it with mercy and effort. Islam encourages spouses to please each other, not just physically, but emotionally. A wife should not act lifeless or uninterested, as if she is doing a chore. And a husband should not behave like intimacy is his right alone without caring about her feelings. There should be playfulness, attraction, effort, cleanliness, and emotional readiness. The Prophet ﷺ was gentle, romantic, and attentive. He didn’t rush, force, or neglect emotional connection.
There is also a strong warning. The Prophet ﷺ warned against consistently denying a spouse without valid reason. Not as a threat, but as a reminder of how serious this right is. Because when halal is blocked, haram becomes tempting. This is why protecting intimacy is actually protecting the entire marriage.
Final reflection: Marriage is not just about cooking, providing, or raising children. It is also about meeting each other’s deepest needs with mercy, patience, and sincerity. To the wives: Do not let anger turn you into cold stone in the place where love should live. To the husbands: Do not demand warmth if you are bringing coldness into her life. And to both: Fix what is outside the bedroom, and what is inside will naturally heal. A successful marriage is not one without problems. It is one where both partners refuse to let those problems destroy their bond. May Allah bless our homes with love, understanding, and halal satisfaction. Ameen.

Just as a man seeks comfort, a woman also seeks warmth, affection, and connection. The Prophet ﷺ made it clear that fulfilling each other’s needs is part of righteousness. He even taught that intimacy between spouses is rewarded like charity, because it protects both from sin. So this matter is not small. It is _‘ibadah_.
When intimacy becomes a weapon, homes suffer in silence. Some women, when there is conflict, turn intimacy into punishment. They become still like a log of wood — no response, no warmth, no effort. Some completely deny their husbands access for long periods. Others show coldness, silence, or emotional distance in bed. Let’s be clear: this is not just about physical denial. It is emotional disconnection. And over time, it can destroy a marriage quietly. Islam does not support using intimacy as a weapon of control or revenge. Yes, disagreements will happen. Every marriage faces tests. But dragging those issues into the bedroom, turning a place of mercy into a battlefield — that is dangerous.
But balance is important, and this topic must be handled with justice and wisdom. A woman is not expected to respond with love if she is being oppressed, neglected, disrespected, or emotionally abused. Islam does not command blind submission. It commands mutual kindness — _mu‘āsharah bil ma‘rūf_. So if a man is failing in his duties — no care, no affection, no provision — then he should first fix himself before demanding his rights.
The bedroom reflects the heart. What happens in the bedroom is often a reflection of what happens outside it. If there is no communication, no appreciation, and no emotional connection, then intimacy becomes dry, forced, or even resisted. But when there is kind words, gentle touch, respect and understanding, then intimacy becomes natural, beautiful, and fulfilling.
Spice it with mercy and effort. Islam encourages spouses to please each other, not just physically, but emotionally. A wife should not act lifeless or uninterested, as if she is doing a chore. And a husband should not behave like intimacy is his right alone without caring about her feelings. There should be playfulness, attraction, effort, cleanliness, and emotional readiness. The Prophet ﷺ was gentle, romantic, and attentive. He didn’t rush, force, or neglect emotional connection.
There is also a strong warning. The Prophet ﷺ warned against consistently denying a spouse without valid reason. Not as a threat, but as a reminder of how serious this right is. Because when halal is blocked, haram becomes tempting. This is why protecting intimacy is actually protecting the entire marriage.
Final reflection: Marriage is not just about cooking, providing, or raising children. It is also about meeting each other’s deepest needs with mercy, patience, and sincerity. To the wives: Do not let anger turn you into cold stone in the place where love should live. To the husbands: Do not demand warmth if you are bringing coldness into her life. And to both: Fix what is outside the bedroom, and what is inside will naturally heal. A successful marriage is not one without problems. It is one where both partners refuse to let those problems destroy their bond. May Allah bless our homes with love, understanding, and halal satisfaction. Ameen.

A nikah done simply and quickly is more blessed than a wedding that took two years of loans and show.
We made marriage hard. Islam made it easy. We chose society over sunnah.

Do Not Exhaust What Allaah Has Not Made Endless
بســـم اللــه الرحــمــن الـرحـــيــم
People often fail to realize that they can push someone to a point where the person no longer wants anything to do with them except salam. This applies to friendships, marriages, and even family.
Many assume that love guarantees endurance — that because someone loves you, they will continue to tolerate disrespect, neglect, or emotional harm. But this is a mistake.
Every person has a limit. And when that limit is reached, they may choose peace over connection. Even the most patient and kind-hearted individuals can reach a breaking point.
When someone constantly feels unappreciated, misunderstood, or mistreated, the heart begins to withdraw. And once the heart withdraws, repairing that bond becomes extremely difficult.
What many people neglect is this: Allaah distributes forgiveness among His servants just as He distributes provision, īmān, and strength.
Not everyone has been given the same capacity to forgive.
Some people can overlook repeatedly, while others, once their limit is reached, cannot return to what they once were. This is from the wisdom and decree of Allah.
So do not deal with people as if their forgiveness is guaranteed.
Do not test the limits of those who care about you. Do not rely on their patience as something permanent. Do not assume they will always forgive, always return, or always understand.
Because one day, they may not.
Just as you would not waste wealth knowing provision is limited, and just as you would guard your īmān fearing its loss — then do not take lightly the hearts of people.
Forgiveness is a provision. And provisions, once exhausted, are not always restored.

Every relationship will get boring after a few years. This is because you pretty much know everything about the other person and there's very little mystery left.
Most people think, we don't have that spark anymore or we don't feel those butterflies.
What we need to understand is love is not a feeling. It's a commitment to choose a partner every single day, physically and emotionally. We need to normalize the fact that it is going to get difficult sometimes.
It's not always the laughs, the smiles, and the fun that you see. And I think as a generation, we should stop romanticizing the Hollywood kind of love. And that's why people quit when it stops being fun and they go look for something else because the spark is gone, that's not how it works. If you want somebody to never give up on you and love you unconditionally, then you do the same.
We all need to understand that when two people with different upbringings and different personalities come together, there are going to be differences and there are going to be fights. That's the truth, right? And if you ever hear a couple say that they don't fight at all, please know that they're lying. No matter how compatible they are, fights are bound to happen.
That's why relationships are both difficult and beautiful. And all the efforts that you take to make it work is worth it.
