Is Marriage an Achievement?


 


There's a common misunderstanding where people often equate a wedding ceremony with marriage itself. While we can debate whether an extravagant wedding is necessary or considered an achievement, the real question lies in the essence of marriage.


Some argue that being married isn't necessarily an achievement. But I believe there's no denying that a good marriage is indeed an accomplishment. A good marriage demands effort. It involves raising children, embodying love, patience, and endurance—values that are crucial to the world around us.


Our world suffers from the challenges of building strong homes. Many people struggle with the pressures that come with maintaining a healthy marriage. Infidelity, impatience, financial strains, and emotional instability are all factors that can tear relationships apart. Ultimately, society reflects the strength of our family values.


How, then, can anyone argue that the emotional, spiritual, and economic work required to cultivate a strong, successful marriage is not an achievement? It’s baffling and frustrating, especially in a society that celebrates superficial accolades like Grammys, sports awards, and other recognitions that don’t fundamentally improve the human soul. We rarely give the same respect to the immense work that goes into nurturing a good marriage, despite its scarcity and the chaos caused by its absence in society.


Marriage is hard work. Surrounding yourself with people who downplay the dedication and discipline required for a successful marriage can be toxic. Marriage is so honorable that the Bible uses it to represent the relationship between Christ and the Church. It’s a creation of God, as divine as the sun, the stars, and humanity itself.


So why would anyone dismiss the significance of working on a marriage while celebrating academic achievements like a Ph.D.? Do those degrees foster the love, care, and nurturing that strong marriages do?


We need to rethink our values. It's fine to undervalue extravagant weddings, but we should never belittle the importance of good marriages. The world desperately needs more strong, lasting marriages, as we are all suffering morally and emotionally from their absence.


When I meet couples who have been married for decades, raising children who are now thriving in their own relationships, I recognize true greatness. This is no small feat. For me, a good marriage is, and will always be, an achievement.

The consequences of not paying Zakat!

  The consequences of not paying Zakat! All the decrees of Allah are for the universal welfare of man. Every command and prohibition of Allah Ta'ala has two types of results or consequences. An afterlife will be found and that is the key. The consequences of disobeying His orders are still felt today, though many times people do not realize it. Consequences of not paying Zakat: First of all: Since the wealth of the rich has the right of the poor and destitute, if Zakat is not paidProperty remains the property of others. As a result it is not holy. Allah does not bless impure wealth and the possessor of that wealth is deprived of Allah's mercy. Not only that, the people who do not pay Zakat or Sadaqah, Allah sends worldly punishments like drought and famine on them. The Prophet (PBUH) said, "If a community refuses to give Zakat, Allah punishes them with famine" (Tabarani). Secondly:Rasulullah (SAW) said, "Whoever gives zakat in the hope of reward, there...
