Going About A Muslim Marriage

By Walter Olson


There is a lot that usually takes place during a union such as this. The most important part however is the signing of a marriage certificate which legalizes the union. During the entire process, a man is supposed to be put in a separate location until after the reception is over. Most of these are not carried out in the mosques as many people would presume. Below is information on Muslim marriage.

In this religion, polygamy is allowed. The prophet allows men to marry the woman that they please, but this should not exceed four. The only requirement is that these men should be able to take care of all of them. This tradition is however being slowly wiped away due to civilization.

Dating is not allowed as persons of the opposite sex are not even allowed to intermingle. They are advised to marry as soon as they can. All marriages are arranged which means that they cannot choose the partner they like most. Selection is based on factors such as education faith and class.

A Muslim man is allowed to marry a Christian woman but a Muslim woman cannot be married by a Christian man. The reason as to why this law is one-sided has not yet been established. There are however two conditions which need to be met. The first is that the christen woman must be a staunch one. The second one is that it is not supposed to be a Muslim who turns into a Christian.

Appearance is everything. This was the first thing that the couple noticed in each other just due to the fact that they have now become one does not mean that one is supposed to neglect themselves. This is what will make the husband be tempted to cheat on them. Cleanliness should always be at the top of their lit.

Divorce is allowed in this religion. It should however be considered as an option when the couple as tried all they can and heir problems are not only affecting them but also their children. Once one is divorced, they only are allowed to be married gain a maximum of two times and thats it.

In order for marriages to last, it is important for husbands to be fully aware of how they are supposed to treat their significant other. It is good for them to compliment their wives when they do a good job. This helps foster love between the two. On the other hand, it is important for them to find the best means of dealing with their wives when they do wrong without having to include domestic violence.

To sum up the above information, its important for the newlyweds to know that just like any other type of marriage across the world, it is not an easy affair. A person is supposed to give it their all and have lot of patients while at it. Each party is also required to give respect to one other so that they can work n the long run.
