TRAVERSING THE HIGHS AND LOWS OF MUSLIM MARRIAGE
Are you engaged to be married with preconceived notions about this blessed union? Or are you a newly-wed couple for whom the practical reality of marriage is gradually unfolding? Or is your marriage of many years on the rocks due to myriad factors that affect your relationship? Is the behaviour of your in-laws or your spouse thwarting your efforts to maintain happiness in marriage? Is your privacy in this relationship being compromised?.
Traversing the Highs and Lows of Muslim Marriage provides a comprehensive guide to overcome all the tribulations that serve as the stumbling blocks on the road to a happy, loving, supportive and deeply satisfying marital relationship. It provides clear guidelines on how to build a strong, happy and long-lasting marital bond by dealing constructively with any problems along the way. Abolishing stereotypes, it highlights how Islam emphasises the need for a harmonious, steadfast and highly loving relationship between a husband and wife and safeguards their privacy.
Transcending the cultural bounds that hinder the smooth transition of couples into married life and abolishing stereotypes, the book offers up-to-date, wide-ranging marital advice based on an impressive amount of carefully compiled and well-presented information based on the Qur'an and the Sunnah. It will prove to be your key towards making marriage a joyful and wonderful experience all the way!

Jon Lach of us might know her directly or indirectly - someone who was very talented and bright, with a brilliant mind brimming with novel ideas for the betterment of the Muslim Ummah and the world. She loved to dress up, cook and mingle with her friends, just as much as she loved reading a good, spiritually-charged book of knowledge or attending a lecture by a notable shaykh that would rejuvenate her faith within minutes.
ailsShe was active in the local community, arranging and attending lectures, talks and sisterly get-togethers, where she contributed to 'the life of the party', so to speak. She met everyone at the local Eid prayer with a glowing countenance, and became the object of discreet nudges and knowingly-exchanged glances by 'aunties', 'checking her out' for their sons or brothers.

One day, however, the inevitable finally happened. Amid tears, blessings and lots of bear-hugs, she got married and went off to her marital home. From that day till today, she seemingly 'disappeared'. You heard from a mutual friend about her difficult pregnancy; a year after that, someone informed you that she had had a baby. You asked around for her phone number, but got none. You sent her emails on her email address and added her as a friend on Facebook, but she was always pretty inactive.
Allah "It's her round-the-clock care-giving routine with the baby," you are told. Nodding in silent agreement, you cannot help but wonder. A year or so down the road, you are informed of her husband's financial troubles and about her having to move back in with her in-laws.or
