Marriage is the best way to establish sexual relations and procreation

Allah the Almighty has bestowed a special blessing on marriage. A significant Prophetic Sunnah (S). Contributes to faith’s fullness. Character is a one-of-a-kind self-defence tool. One of the factors that contribute to the development of young men and women’s personalities. Marriage is essential for creating a perfect family, meeting biological needs, and gaining peace of mind. Which is every human being’s innate need. The Islamic Shari’ah has imposed the marriage rule to meet this demand. The great Rabbul Alamin has ordered marriage to legally fulfill sexual needs in order to save mankind from a great curse such as living together. If a Muslim is an adult and capable, it is his religious duty to marry as soon as possible. Marriage is a great act of worship as well as a biological necessity. Marriage is the means of achieving this and subsequent welfare. Marriage elevates people’s lives to a higher level of sophistication, elegance, and holiness. Ideal family structure, biological needs are met, and the peace of mind of the human race by an increase in the following verse of the Quran karime Declares,
ومن آياته أن خلق لكم من أنفسكم أزواجا لتسكنوا إليها وجعل بينكم مودة ورحمة

“This is another sign that He has created for you mates from among yourselves, so that you may be at peace with them, and He has created harmony and kindness between you.” (Surah Rum: 21)

Allah says elsewhere:

اُحِلَّ لَـکُمْ لَيْلَةَ الصِّيَامِ الرَّفَثُ اِلٰى نِسَآٮِٕكُمْ‌ؕ هُنَّ لِبَاسٌ لَّـكُمْ وَاَنْـتُمْ لِبَاسٌ لَّهُنَّ ؕ عَلِمَ اللّٰهُ اَنَّکُمْ كُنْتُمْ تَخْتَانُوْنَ اَنْفُسَکُمْ فَتَابَ عَلَيْكُمْ وَعَفَا عَنْكُمْۚ فَالْـــٰٔنَ بَاشِرُوْهُنَّ وَابْتَغُوْا مَا کَتَبَ اللّٰهُ لَـكُمْ وَكُلُوْا وَاشْرَبُوْا حَتّٰى يَتَبَيَّنَ لَـكُمُ الْخَـيْطُ الْاَبْيَضُ مِنَ الْخَـيْطِ الْاَسْوَدِ مِنَ الْفَجْرِ‌ؕ ثُمَّ اَتِمُّوا الصِّيَامَ اِلَى الَّيْلِ‌ۚ وَلَا تُبَاشِرُوْهُنَّ وَاَنْـتُمْ عٰكِفُوْنَ فِى الْمَسٰجِدِؕ تِلْكَ حُدُوْدُ اللّٰهِ فَلَا تَقْرَبُوْهَا ؕ كَذٰلِكَ يُبَيِّنُ اللّٰهُ اٰيٰتِهٖ لِلنَّاسِ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَتَّقُوْنَ

“It is made lawful for you to go unto your wives (in sexual relations) on the night of the fast. They are a garment for you and you are a garment for them. Allah knows that you acted unfaithfully to (betrayed) your souls, so He accepted your repentance and pardoned you. Therefore you may now approach them intimately and seek what Allah has ordained for you. Eat and drink until the white thread becomes distinct from the black thread of the dawn, then complete the fast till nightfall. And do not approach them if you are in I’tikâf (confining oneself in a mosque for prayers and invocations leaving the worldly activities) in the mosques. These are the limits of Allah, so do not go near them (the limits). Thus does Allah make clear His Verses (Signs) for men that they may become the pious.” (Surah Al-Baqarah: 187)

Allah also said:

وأنكحوا الأيامى منكم والصالحين من عبادكم وإمائكم إن يكونوا فقراء يغنهم الله من فضله والله واسع عليم – وليستعفف الذين لا يجدون نكاحا حتى يغنيهم الله من فضله

“Of you who are in the marriage, make their marriage. And those of your male and female slaves who do righteous deeds. If they are poor, God will enrich them of His bounty. GOD is Bounteous, Omniscient. Those who are unable to get married, let them exercise restraint until Allah, by His grace, relieves them.” (Surat an-Noor: 32-33)

The Prophet (S) said, “Marriage is my Sunnah. Anyone who abandons my Sunnah is not a member of my party.” (Bukhari) Another hadeeth says: “O youth! It is the duty of those of you who are able to get married, because marriage controls the vision, protects the purity of the sexual organs.” (Mishkat)

He further said, “O youth! Whoever of you is able to fulfill the rights of his wife, let him be bound in marriage.” (Bukhari)

There is no place for monasticism in Islam. So people can become full Muslims as long as they do not get married. It is narrated in the hadith- “When a servant gets married, he fulfills half of his faith.” (Mishkat)

“There is no asceticism in Islam and the Prophet (S) forbade living in asceticism. (Daremi)

Finally, the significance and benefits of marriage cannot be overstated. Marriage is the only legal way to start a family. Through marriage, the Prophet’s (peace be upon him) important Sunnah is followed. The biological requirements are met. Faith has reached its pinnacle. Great sins, such as fornication, can be forgiven. Moral character grows stronger. The lineage is still going strong. It is possible to create a joyful society and a perfect family. Both the body and the mind are in good shape mentally. The word “peace” comes to mind. The bond between husband and wife is strong. Above all, both now and in the future.

“That is why there is no chance of being unmarried in Islam without a proper reason. Men and women can become full-fledged Muslims as long as they do not get married. It is narrated in the hadith that when a servant gets married, he fulfills half of his faith.” (Mishkat)

Moreover, marriage is one of the Sunnahs of the beloved Prophet (peace be upon him). In the hadith, Rasool (S) says- “Marriage is my Sunnah. Anyone who abandons my Sunnah is not a member of my party.” (Bukhari)

The Prophet (S), discouraged marriage at unnecessary expense. Marriage at extra cost is unlucky. There is a clear statement in the hadith about how blessings and prosperity will come in marriage. The Prophet (S) said, “The most blessed is the marriage which is less expensive or costly.” (Bayhaqi)

When we look at modern marriages, we can see that they are full of unnecessary or unnecessary expenses. With which many societal welfare works can be accomplished. In many places, the additional cost and demand of marriage causes family strife and misery. This is not in the best interests of the individual family, society, or the state. As a result, according to the Beloved Prophet’s (peace be upon him) proclamation, the highest welfare and blessings in marriage must be achieved by spending exactly the same amount, not just spending it.
