An Insight into Love and Marriage “He doesn‟t love me... He doesn‟t talk to me... Why did he get married to me if he‟s going to treat me like this?” I looked at the sister as she had tears rolling down her cheeks and thought to myself... ...What can I do to help you? How can I soften your pain? Whilst at a seminar, a sister approached me in hope that I will take her to the Shaykh and he could give her advice. Much to my surprise, it was her mother in law who was pushing her to do so, due to the pain of seeing her son treat her this way. SubhanAllah, at that moment in time all I could do was to reassure her that things will get better, as well as offering her support by ensuring she was seen by the Shaykh, which alhamdulillah she was. I have used my personal development background and research within this topic to ensure I have presented this topic well with the best and most relevant information. Alhamdulillah, everything has been referenced back to the Qur'an and Sunnah, in hope of ensuring you get the best and attain the pleasure of Allah 'azza wa jal in the process. The material in this book is from my own experience, seminars and lectures with Shaykh Waleed Basyouni, Shaykh Yaser Birjas, as well as personal development seminars with Shaykh Muhammad Alshareef. You don’t have to go through a painful marriage... Allah 'azza wa jal wants you to be happy and so it doesn’t have to be like this - you can learn this now and save yourself from choosing the wrong direction in life. “In Allah we put our trust, whilst doing our best to know the rest.” Though, the main thing for me is being able to assist you in this journey. Hence, I hope you have a great read, gain a lot from this book and may it be a means of moving forward to success. ...And Allah „azza wa jal knows best. Alima Ashfaq Founder of iamAlima
