| Why is it blessed when you get married? |
Sheikh: At what age did you get married?
.
A person: thirty-two.
.
Shaykh: The most dangerous period of a person’s youth is the age of 21-25 years, at that time you were free from all kinds of sins?
.
A person: A little bit of sin is everyone’s Shaykh, are people angels or not?
.
Shaykh: Just because you didn’t get married to prevent yourself from committing a little sin, you didn’t have a lack after marriage because it is said in the Quran that if you get married to protect your character, Allah will take responsibility. You got married to fulfill social obligations, not to protect your character.
.
Person: Yeh I mean… If I got married then my career would have been ruined..
.
Shaykh: This is the second reason for your need to increase after marriage! You want to understand a little more than Allah, the success of the believer is in the pleasure of Allah. You were running towards any success without thinking about the real success? You are told to get married whenever it is time to marry, it is Allah’s responsibility to make you rich. Why did you want to get rich by leaving aside the thought of marriage at the right time?
.
A person: Shaykh, I tried to protect the faith, but why did I not get any reward from Allah?
.
Shaykh: Which thing do you prioritize most during the selection of a wife?
.
A person: I have seen the end of life due to lack and wealth.
.
Shaykh: This is the number three reason for increasing your scarcity. It has been mentioned in the hadith that a person who covets his wife’s wealth during the selection of a wife, his poverty will increase after marriage.
.
Person: Whoops…
.
Sheikh: calm down son! A believer is never disappointed. Believer’s mistake is the size of the foam of the sea, but it is very small to the forgiveness of Allah! Ask for forgiveness from Allah, repent. May Allah forgive you and bless your sustenance inshallah…
