this reply brought me to tears, it was so sweet... jazakllah so much and I wated to ask a question, is marrigae really half of your deen? I didnt know that, I htought it was only a sunnah and as far as I know if you dont someting which is sunnah you dont get sin, if I stay single does that mean I'll get sin and my deen wouldn't be complete? I mean I know many muslims bothers and sisters who have stayed single, they r mashallah really pious and good in their deen but they haven't married not are they intending to marry
Wa iyyaki,Barakallah feeki.Alhamdulillah for everything!
Yes marriage is sunnah,as according to a hadith:
Abu Ayyub, may Allah be pleased with him, said that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, “Four things are part of the sunan of the Messengers: henna, perfume, siwak and marriage.”
I said marriage is half our deen because there is a hadith related to it,which says:
Anas, May Allah be pleased with him, related that the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said,” Any man whom Allah provides with a virtuous wife has been helped to half his Deen, so he should fear Allah regarding the other half.”
Also there is a hadith :
Abu Buhayh, may Allah be pleased with him, related that the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, “Whoever is affluent should marry. If he does not marry, he is not with me.”
Also:
Anas ibn Malik, May Allah be pleased with him, said “A group of people came to the houses of the wives of the prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, to ask about the worship of the Prophet. When they were told, it seemed that they thought that the amount was not sufficient. They said, ‘Where are we in relation to the Prophet?’Allah has forgiven him his past and future errors,’ One of them declared, ‘As for myself, I will pray all night,’ Another said, ‘I will fast continually and never break it.’ Another said, ‘I will withdraw from women and never marry.’ The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace came to them and said, ‘Are you the people who said such and such? By Allah, I have more fear of Allah than you and more awareness of Him, but I fast and break the fast, and sleep, and marry women. Anyone who is averse to my Sunna is not with me.’”
May Allah help us and guide us.Ameen.
