Some of those
with so much money to spend tend to have collection of clothes according
to their needs and desires. From night dress code to party dress code, beach
dress code and sometimes some have special clothes for each and every day of
the week. Likewise many men and women who end up with a number of secret partners.
When any clothing’s
are newly purchased, they are widely praised just as the love shared by the new
weds.
When that
once nice cloth gets old, it’s thrown away and even discarded. For the case of
marriage, the old partners who may no longer be handsome or beautiful are
divorced.
If this is
the case, then what is the intrinsic essence of marriage?
That's why
the aim for marriage is not only for the pursuit of Mawaddah i.e. burning love
that accentuates the physical and worldly appearance. But also any blessed
marriage is driven towards the achievement of sakinah, i.e. tranquillity and
peace. Also Rahmah {blessings}, a sense of love that is based on faith is also
liable for heartfelt togetherness in joy and sorrow.
May Allah
bless us with the ability to build a family of paradise, one filled with
Sakinah, Mawaddah and Rahmah. Aamiin
