Preparing for Marriage? Join AboutIslam Second Premarital Workshop

Are you currently engaged, actively looking to get married, or hope to be married sometime in the future? If yes, AboutIslam second premarital preparation marriage webinar is for you.

AboutIslam second premarital workshop, to be held on Saturday, December 17, is moderated by Sister Hana Alasry, the founder of SALIM Life Coaching.

“There is a common saying that “love is blind.” But, the reality is that love can also be blinding, meaning it doesn’t allow us to see some of the real issues that can cause tension in a marriage… even leading to its end,” Sister Hana told AboutIslam.

“A workshop like this is essential for every Muslim who is currently engaged or hopes to be married in the future. It sheds lights on difficult topics and questions that can easily be overlooked in the midst of the excitement.”

In this workshop, participants will gain valuable insight into the top marriage-ending topics, go through activities to strengthen essential skills for the success of marriage and see examples of how to navigate the most difficult premarital topics.

“The research on this topic is staggering, premarital preparation reduces the risk of marital conflict and especially divorce. I have had many friends who, in the rush of emotions, committed without going through thorough marriage preparation,” Sister Hana added.

“They have expressed their regrets and some are even on the verge of divorce over topics that could’ve been brought up before the marriage contract as brought up.”

Sister Orsolya Ilham, in charge of AboutIslam counseling service and Family Page, added that this year’s webinar is unique and different.

“This webinar is not only for those who plan to marry soon. Getting to know ourselves in a marriage and adapting to each other takes time,” she said.

“If you are a newlywed, this workshop is ideal for refining the skills you will need to navigate through marital challenges.”

In this Webinar:

While last year’s masterclass was information heavy, this year’s workshop has been distilled to the most essential topics with practical activities to hammer concepts in.

The target of this workshop is engaged individuals or really any Muslim who hopes to be married or remarried.

It is much easier to educate ourselves on these marriage-enriching skills prior to marriage than to wish that we would’ve thought things through before committing.

List of Times and Places Where Dua is Accepted

A short reminder regarding the recommended times of dua . And I think what you need to know here is that the recommended times of dua or recommended things that can cause your dua to be accepted, can be divided into two sort of large groups: Am I Good Enough to Make Dua for Myself? Situations where your dua is accepted. Times where your dua is accepted So I’m going to very briefly mention them one after the other as much as possible. As for situations where your dua has been accepted: – The person who has been wronged or oppressed . – A person who finds themselves in severe difficulty after a calamity has struck. – The person who is traveling. – Someone who is fasting. – The one who is reciting the Quran or has just recited the Quran – Someone who is performing Hajj or Umrah or jihad. – The one who is making dua for someone in their absence . Because we know that when you make dua for someone in his absence an angel says: “ Ameen and to you”. – A person...

Ghuraba (The Strangers): Nasheed with English Subtitles

Islam began as something strange, and it shall return to being something strange, so give glad tidings the strangers. (Sahih Muslim 145) This famous nasheed has many versions; this one is from Muhammad al-Salman and has the subtitles in English embedded. [We are] strangers and we do not bow the foreheads to anyone besides Allah  […] Transliteration to help in the pronounciation:  Ghurabaa’ wa li ghairillaahi laa nahnil jibaa Aisha Stacey  wrote in an article for Aboutislam.net : “I think that many of you would agree that being Muslim in the 21st century makes you well acquainted with being strange. It might even be a metaphor for random, as in you have been randomly selected. […] many converts to Islam will tell you about feeling as if they were strangers, before finding Islam. They will speak of feeling that they belonged somewhere else that their lives were just slightly off center. They often speak about a vague sense of knowing they were not like everyone else...

Taqwa – Living the Main Purpose of Ramadan

Taqwa is a major purpose for the month of Ramadan. The people of taqwa are those who do the things that they are commanded and avoid the things which Allah has made prohibitive. And evidently, to reach a state of taqwa requires vigilance, it requires patience and sincerity. The verse is pertaining to fasting I found in a single set of verses in chapter 2 starting at verse 183: O you who have believed, decreed upon you is fasting as it was decreed upon those before you that you may become righteous. ( 2:183 ) A Collective Act of Worship Allah is telling us that fasting has been made obligatory and then Allah tells us that just as it was prescribed for those before us. We often get asked this question in Ramadan, “how’s the fast going for us?” And if we gave ourselves a moment to think about it, we see that Allah Most High has made the fast inside the month of Ramadan easy for us because we know that there is a collective spirit to fasting; we know that we’re not alone in this ...
