Why Marriage
In islam unlike other religions like christianism , marriage is requested , RASSUL ALLAH SALLA ALLAHU ALEIHI W SALLAM said " there is no celibacy in islam" n there is hadith when 3 men decided to serve ALLAH , ne of them decided not to marry so RASSUL ALLAH SALLA ALLAH ALEIHI W SALLAM said that he married n those who refused this r not from him .if someone not then we can only be amazed because its badly needed in this era..
if w consider marriage in its religious context , ALLAH subhanahu w taala created male n female to b close n to populate earth n achieve ALLAH's message . n HE SUBHANAHU W TAALA made it as a sign of HIM " we min ayaatihi"
in behaviour context , marriage is a protection from bad evils in society .it's to do what ALLAH created in us in its legal way as sis aya mentionned , JAAZAHA ALLAH khairan .
marriage , in its social context , is a contract to build a family which is the first condition for a survival of societies n it's a way to create new relation between families .
in emotional side , it's a desire of both n woman to live togethr , to build a family , to share life together .
some pp see it as a traditional , old habit n w know what happened ion some societies of free cohabitation n single mothers but all these matters have so bad impact on relations n on societies too .
in a hidith our beloved prophet MUHAMMAD p.b.u.h says that those who can marry should marry and those who cant should fast as fasting abstain from sexual activities..
and one can raise new generation ,build new relations with other families,fulfill sexual desires without marriage but we have seen these societies who do so..they hav no social system,taking sleeping pills very common,psychological disorders a lot and rape cases a lot..
so OUR CREATOR knows the best way for us..
And one more thing ....before u get married...plz read an authentic book which tells u about "Biwi kay hukook" if ur a man...and if ur a women read "hokar kay hukook" taakay aap apnay husband ya wife pay koi zulm ka karain...kuinki Allah paak is not in the least zaalim....aur woh zulm karnay waloon ko pasand nahin karta....aur jispar zulm hota hai uskay aur Allah kay beech koi deewar nahin hoti....agar uskay dil say koi aah nikli...toa woh zulm karnay waalay ko zaroor lagti hai....thats a guarantee from Allah....so dont do anything to anger him....cuz agar woh badla laynay pay aayega...toa saatoon zameen aur aasmaan ki taakat milkar bhi us shaks ko bacha nahin sakti....i know two publication houses which are authentic....but u should always check khud say...ek hai" Darussalam publication " aur ek hai "International Islamic Publication House "....koi bhi help chahiye feel free..humko khushi hogi if Allah paak chooses me as the zariya to help someone...jazakallah hu khairan.....assalam-o-alaikum warahmatullah hi wabarakatuhu....chow chow !!! ::smile

Reading the Quran but Practising Something Else
PREVALENT CULTURE
There is a prevalent culture among Muslims where they only view the Qur'an as a way of gaining reward for reciting out loud the Arabic words correctly. Such people think that they hold the Qur'an in high esteem, but this only keeps them away from studying the Qur'an as they should. Parents teach their children how to pronounce the Arabic words and send their children to evening schools to learn to recite the Qur'an correctly. Such people do not deny the importance of the Qur'an, but their idea of the role of the Qur'an is extremely mistaken and shallow. It is merely to either gain reward for each letter recited or to validate Salah by reciting some short chapters. Members of this majority group may even enjoy listening to recitations of the Qur'an, not because of the message in the Verses, but to appreciate the melody, or for relaxation purposes!
What Islam is, is merely everything else they hear outside of the Qur'an. Such people consider themselves highly religious, while they hold such an ignorant approach to the Qur'an. They recite the Qur'an frequently, but the recitation does not have any bearing on them. Then, they take all their religious guidance from outside the Qur'an - they think those practices amount to fulfilling their duty to the Qur'an. Many of such ignorant people's ideas and practices are even against what the Qur'an has to say, while they are not aware of it - or are aware of it but deliberately ignore thinking about it, laying excuses such as 'I am not knowledgeable enough' or 'I am a layman, more knowledgeable people have said this, who are you and me to question?'
REAL PURPOSE OF THE QURAN IS TO GIVE GUIDANCE
The real purpose of the Qur'an is to give guidance to the individual human being who has been created to worship Allah. The Qur'an's guidance is in its meanings, not in the pronunciations of its Arabic letters. The guidance of the Qur'an is a mercy, cure and light for the true believers as it reveals many unknown secrets such as Allah's power, reasons to happening of events around us, and the true nature of Allah's religion. The Qur'an has been necessarily made easy to understand. But this majority have been bereft from this blessing, all while they are deceived into thinking they are following religion perfectly as they are fulfilling their own idea of what the purpose of the Qur'an is.
"We have sent down to you a Book containing your message. Do you not understand?" (Qur’an 21:10)
Thinking one is fulfilling their obligations toward the Qur'an by simply carrying out rituals such as prayer and fasting, without making the effort to find out what the Qur'an actually says about religion is a great deception. This is because the Qur'an is a Book to reflect upon, to learn from and to gain the necessary insight and wisdom it gives to be a real believer, this is a duty upon anyone who wants to be a Muslim. One cannot possibly be a true Muslim without having necessary knowledge and understanding of the Qur'an. If one only learns about the Qur’an from books written about the Qur’an, written by people, and does not feel the necessity to learn from the Qur’an directly himself, he is only deceiving himself. Allah mentions this ignorant approach in the words, “Or do you have another book which you study?”(Qur’an 68:39).
Worship based on make-believing that Qur'an is being followed in the flow of the majority and under blind trust of leaders without a personal attachment to the Qur'an and knowledge of the Qur'an, holds little or no value in Allah's sight.
Let us ask ourselves: how much do we know about the Qur'an? Not superficial knowledge like the number of chapters or verses, or which city a chapter was revealed in, but the message in its Verses and their many intricacies and secrets. How much wisdom have you gained from the Qur'an? Have you read the entire Qur'an even once in your own language? How many times a day do you refer to the Verses of the Qur'an as you lead your day to day life? Are you sure whether any of your outlooks are from the Qur'an, or is your religion muddled?
“The words of your Lord are complete in its truth and justice. Nothing can change His Words – He is the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing. If you obeyed most of those on earth, they would lead you away from the path of Allah. They follow nothing but speculation – they are merely guessing.” (Qur’an 6:115-116)
"This too, is a blessed Book which We have sent down – follow it, and be conscious of your Lord, so that you may receive mercy – lest you say, ‘Books were sent to two communities before us: we were not aware of what they studied’, or ‘if only the Book had been sent down to us, we would have been better guided than them.’ Now your Lord has brought you clear evidence, guidance, and mercy. Who could be more wrong than someone who rejects Allah’s Revelations and turns away from them? We shall repay those who turn away with a painful punishment." (Qur’an 6:155-157)
It is clear that being heedless of the Qur'an will lead to losses in this life and the Hereafter as Allah will call all people into account their level of adherence to the Qur'an.
“Surely, the One who decreed the Qur’an to you will summon you to a predetermined appointment. Say: 'My Lord is fully aware of who it is that brings the guidance, and who has gone astray.' " (Qur’an 28:85)
FOLLOW THE BOOK OF ALLAHAs stated in the verse, all people are responsible for adhering to the way of life decreed by Allah in the Qur'an. Without direct knowledge of the Verses, practicing alleged claims about the Qur'an and following the majority, may not have any value in the sight of Allah. Many people who do not have any Quranic insight or wisdom spread claims about the Qur'an's verses which are a far cry from the verses' true meanings. They usually get away with it as their audience have also been conditioned to simply follow 'sayings' about the Qur'an, rather than the Qur'an.
It is only when one opens his eyes and begins to comprehend the Verses of Allah, can he begin to follow the Book of Allah and hope to become a true Muslim.
"...Indeed there has come to you from Allah a Light and a Clear Book. With it Allah guides whoever follows His good pleasure to the ways of peace and brings them out from the darkness into the light by His permission: He guides them onto a straight path" (Qur'an 5:15-16)
All Muslims must consider their position in religion in relation to the Qur'an. Reciting the Qur'an without a sincere effort to understand the verses directly will not enlighten the human soul.

Zindagi k gehre bhedon ko mai smjha teri baton se,
Mai tere hath k takiye pr ab b rat ko sota hon,
Maa mai ik chota sa bcha hon teri yad mei ab b rota hon.

BE GRATEFUL.  You have to develop in yourself the sense of gratitude. You should be thankful for what you have. But youshould recognize that there are things you can do to improve your life.
IT'S ALL IN THE MIND.  We are unhappy because we think we are. Unhappy people are attached to their unhappiness. They refuse to change. When one thinks negatively, then he attracts negative thoughts. If you think that a tragedy will fall on you, somehow you fulfill it. Unconsciously, you make it happen.
MONEY ISN'T EVERYTHING.  People accumulate more and more money but the amount of happiness they can "buy" gets smaller and smaller. Although more money may bring greater feeling of empowerment, studies show that personal relationships, spirituality and feelings about oneself most directly influence well-being.
DISCOVER THE BEST FRIEND IN YOU.  We can all change for the better. You can be happy even with yourself by discovering the best friend in you. Get real. Don't be hard on yourself with those high, unattainable goals. It's time you don't look for happiness outside you.

Islamic Quotes: 14 ways to Happiness l
LEARN TO RECEIVE BLESSINGS.  Think of the little things that make you happy or the people that give you assurance where you're good at. This is called receiving. Most of us have reasons to be happy,only that we don't see them or we take them for granted. We need to have little eyes and little hearts too, and realize that all things that make us happy have been there all along.
HAVE SOMEBODY TO TURN TO.  Even if you're in turmoil, there are people who will support you. But often we stick with people who make us very unhappy. If you're unhappy, seek people who will nurture you or look for a partner who will serve as a well-spring of inspiration.
BE HOPEFUL.  Hoping is better than being optimistic since it's whole and real. Because sometimes, one's optimism can be a denial of hardship . It's easy to be optimistic about things, but inside you,you're anxious about them. Hoping is deeper. It's something you look forward to even when you recognize the difficulties and pains. The more hopeful a person is, the more he recognizes how bad the situation is, and lets himself to bear it. In the end, he knows it will bear good results. You don't deny difficulties. You're touching ground instead.
KEEP THE FAITH ALIVE.  There'll be points in your life when you can't handle problems alone. Think about SOMEONE who's more powerful,and who loves you dearly to take care of you. Having faith in ALLAH will give you hope.
SHARE YOURSELF.  You can actually give intangible gifts even without your conscious effort. People will tell you later that you've helped them, and gradually, you will feel you're making a difference in their lives. That's a deeper gift. When you help others, they affirm you by saying, "You're good." Then you realize that you're a good person and your goodness is not merely based on meeting deadlines or getting a raise. It's more of proving your self-worth based on being loved for who you really are and not simply for the result you can deliver or the money you can contribute to the company. This strengthens your positive attitude towards difficulties in life.

14 Ways to Happiness
Asalam-0-Alaikum
ACCEPT THE PAINS. You must get in touch with your situation. Sometimes people deny their hardship, thinking that if they don't face them, they will be happier. But it's the other way around. Allow yourself to go through the pains.
CHOOSE NOT TO STAY IN PAIN. They say this is "self-empowerment". You can either be bitter about the pains and feel very powerless. Or you can do something and feel powerful enough to handle them. It's a choice to live with or without pain
FORGIVE YOURSELF, OTHER PEOPLE. But before forgiveness comes in, think about how other people hurt. Then realize that you can see yourself for what you actually are and not how they want you to be. So finding happiness is no longer rooted outside, but it's inside you - what you see, how you view things, what you want. Then it leads to your choice : to live your life with yourself.
TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR LIFE. We sometimes allow ourselves to let other people, circumstances, or pains in the past to rule our lives. So we become very unhappy and very bitter because we live blaming others on who we are, where we're at, or how we should be. It's an exhausting process because you'll forever be blaming other people. Don't be bothered by what others think who you are or the standards they set. Take responsibility for your life.
LEARN TO LET GO AND TRUST YOURSELF.  To be happy means learning to let go of expectations from yourself or from other people. You can't always have your way. At work, you can't always be sure your strategies will work or your plans will happen. But before you let go,have a deeper trust in yourself.
