From the choice of spouse to the quality of life of the couple between responsibility and predestination, by Alfaki Sakinah (2)

How to ensure the development of your couple? Many Muslims unite quickly without knowing the ins and outs of this deep commitment and this act of worship that is marriage. Some marry to achieve a specific objective – to love and be loved, to raise children, to live one's love in a lawful way, etc. – , others want to flee (anti-objective) a dreaded thing – the family home, loneliness , etc. – . However, it is important to aim first for divine approval.

The ambition of this book, as of the previous one, is to recall the objective of marriage – to make us grow and flourish on the physical, emotional, cognitive and spiritual levels – and to draw from the source the advice of our religion to found the basis of a solid and blessed couple, then to explore the avenues (pitfalls and tricks) which have proven themselves and which can ensure the durability of the couple. Love is a desire to love, to commit to achieve a union – a us – from two different beings, this is the challenge that awaits the couple.

We will see in this Volume 2 how to make marriage - which is half of faith - a haven of peace and a daily blessing, from the reasoned choice of the spouse, through the prayer of consultation, to end with the effort on oneself on a daily basis – it is the completion of faith – in the implementation of the entrusted divine deposit (faith) according to the trials (uncertainties) of life. We will also discover the key role of the spouse in becoming aware of certain faults revealed, and therefore to be reformed, and of certain qualities to maintain and develop in order to enrich the couple, to blossom and grow in the way of God.
