Islam is a great and true religion.
It has described almost every part of
men and women life in its education.
Marriage plays an important role in
human life that's why there are many
details about islamic marriage in quran
and islam. Through Marriage, the conjugal
relationship between a man and a woman
becomes lawful. It provides a legitimate
outlet for recreation as well as procreation.
Islam regards sex as natural and good,
but restricts it to the partners of
marriage so as to ensure the responsibility
for its consequences.
Marriage
in Islam?
Marriage
in Islam is a recommended as a religious
requirement.
"Marry those among you who are
single and (marry) your slaves, male
and female, that are righteous"
(Quran 24:32)
Prophet Muhammad
(SAW) declared:
"When the
servant of Allah marries, he has fulfilled
half the (responsibilities laid on him
by the) faith; so let him be God conscious
with respect to the other half".
(Mishkat)
Marriage, in fact, is specifically considered
the tradition (sunnah) of Prophet Muhammad
(S) when he declared:
"Marriage
is my Sunnah, whoever disregards my
(sunnah) path is not from among us".
(ibn Majah)
Islam discourages celibacy and encourages
marriage, as Prophet Muhammad (S) recommended:
"Whoever is able to marry, should
marry". (Bukhari)

Encourage
Marriage to Discourage Immorality
[24:32].
You shall encourage those of you who
are single to get married. They may
marry the righteous among your male
and female servants, if they are poor.
GOD will enrich them from His grace.
GOD is Bounteous, Knower.
[25:74].
And they say, "Our Lord, let our
spouses and children be a source of
joy for us, and keep us in the forefront
of the righteous."
[30:21].
"Among His proofs is that He created
for you spouses from among yourselves,
in order to have tranquility and contentment
with each other, and He placed in your
hearts love and care towards your spouses.
In this, there are sufficient proofs
for people who think."
Quran
gives its philosophy on Islamic Marriage
as:
“And among
His Signs is this that He created for
you spouses of your own kind, that you
may dwell in tranquility with them,
and He has put love and mercy for one
another: verily in that are Signs for
those who reflect.” (Quran 30:21)
