Marriage and Marriage and Marriage

Straight Arrow
By Straight Arrow

I have noticed the threads on marriage and love, it seems some of us are having difficulties in understanding some key concepts of love and marriage and because of one failure case some people thinks that love hurts and marriage is bad.
So I invite you guys to put here some difficulties you have faced in your marriage life and how you got over it so others benifit from your experience and remember if you help others tomorrow others will help you without any interest and here I put a very good websit which I hope you will go throught it and benifit from it.

Please keep it a nice debate and civilzed one.

people should realise that marriage is not the end of the journey and that their life partner is a co-passenger in their onward journey...a co-passenger who joins you to make ur journey more enjoyable.always keep ur focus on the journey and enjoy the sights and sounds on the way,alongwith ur co-passenger.

is an experience ... and ev1 has their own !

I don't think one can set a standard procedure for a 'happy married life' for others to follow ..

besides, something that may b easy for u to say may not b easy for others to implement...

Snessy I spent the whole weekend looking at girls. Everytime I had the cheek to ask them for their phone number, I was completely ignored :(

How great is it to be a man here ;)

Right, so we spent the whole weekend looking at cars, went to nearly every flipping showroom in Doha. Everytime, I had the cheek to ask the salesman a question about the car, I was completely ignored! How great it is to be a woman here!!

Here are few of my extension and not additions

* always walk 2 steps behind your husband,( yeah if u spend 2 hrs on the dressing table than this is possible)

* never look him in the eye,(how could u if u put up a 2 kilo makeup on the upper eye lid)

* never answer back,( bcos it always irrelevent to the topic )

* always have dinner on the table for when he gets home& * always put out when HE wants it!!

( it's not a tough job to rearrange a days old food on the dinner table)...and...

* your answer always should be a'yes',( yeah don't embarres ur self by reveling ur actual intelligence level)

* never mention his mistakes,( because marrying u was the biggest mistake))

* always obey his rulings,( which u forced him to accept b4 getting married to u)

* think as he thinks,( coz he is the only one with brains and not u)

* don't react as he reacts,( coz its a man's job to thrust and u wont enjoy if u react like him )

time(!), communication and actually being interested in what your spouse has to say. being loving for no reason at all, physical intimacy, honesty, patience, understanding, what else? these sounds cliche, but true

For example one time she was upset because I always come late from work but then I decided to come earlier in two days of the week and took her for a nice dinner, something like that.

I started avoiding rude words, guys please list some good advices so others benifit as much as possible.

Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith 7.4 Narrated by Abdullah We were with the Prophet (saws) while we were young and had no wealth whatever. So Allah`s Messenger (saws) said, "O young people! Whoever among you can marry, should marry, because it helps him lower his gaze and guard his modesty, and whoever is not able to marry, should fast, as fasting diminishes his sexual power."

In light of the above guidance of the Messenger of Allah (saws) two things or acts might help you in your battle to fight this severe temptation:

1. if you are able to marry, then marry; and/or,

2. voluntary fasting; for fasting diminishes one’s sexual desires.

people have always been apprehensive of taking major risks and sharing one's life with a stranger is certainly one according to many people.so they just talk and talk about it....in an attempt to seek answers for the questions within themselves.
