Marriage secrets

It’s common nowadays for married couples to go out into society and speak about their spouse, their detailed relationship, discosling private affairs, and revealing intimate secrets. These gatherings, social events, and close circle’s tend to breed lots of distrust. One minute they share a home, a bed, and the next they speak about it. This is why Islam promotes purity and honesty. It has come to protect our household from disfractions. It develops a family value that is binded by love, respect, and the pursuit of Allah’s pleasure. Therefore, if we know that we have this distasteful habit of revealing our spouse’s secrets or complaing perpetually about them in public or to our relatives, we have to refrain from it immediately. Allah has given a severe warning for such people and most importantly, its negative effects could appear sooner than later. It could ruin the marriage and plant distrust between the couple. Thus, we should realize that marriage behaviors are a reflection of our iman and it is a perfect combination of trust, obedience, mutual respect. It’s a covenant of truthfulness and secrecy, in attempt to work things out together just like a team coming together with a game plan.

In another hadith, the Prophet (salah allahu ‘alayhi wa salam) said, “One of the greatest trusts before Allaah on the Day of Resurrection will be a man who was intimate with his wife and she with him, then he spread her secret.” [Muslim]

Happy marriage

A reminder for our blessed Muslim sisters, may Allah preserve them all and keep them steadfast. Indeed, acquiring a happy marriage through the teachings of our beloved Prophet (salah allahu ‘alayhi wa salam) is the way to eternal comfort, happiness, and a blessed home, bithinillah ta’ala.
