 Auto-generated transcript:In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. All praise belongs to Allah, the Lord of the worlds. And peace and blessings be upon the honorable Prophet Muhammad and upon his companions. My dear respected brothers, sisters, elders. The topic of my khutbah today is marriage in Islam. And there are two reasons for that. One is that this month and next month we seem to have a spate of those who are who seem to be absolutely determined to commit matrimony. So I thought maybe it's a good idea to give them some idea of what it means. And secondly, this khutbah is, and the one in Baitul Salam, is part of a global khutbah for this Jummah on the subject of Islam, which was started by the Jum'ah Talma South Africa. And for the same reason, which is the amount of absolute proliferation of marriages going bad. And marriages breaking up. So this is a very important part. It's not simply essential for the young people that every time they see a sheikh, they say, sheikh, please make dua, I should get married. And then one month later, they say, sheikh, please make dua, I should get married. And then one month later, they say, sheikh, please make dua, I should get married. And then one month later, whatever. Marriage is perhaps the most important relationship that you are likely to enter into in your life, but also the most complicated. So the first thing to get out of your mind is that marriage is simple. It's not simple. It's very complicated. And you can make your marriage and your home a heaven on earth, or a living hell. That choice is in your hands alone. By you, I mean the husband and the wife. Nobody else. It is your choice alone. And it is a choice. So choose wisely because you will have to live with it. Not anybody else. Allah said in His Kitab al-Qur'an al-Kareem, Wa min ayatihi an khalaqa lakum min anfusih, wa min ayatihi an khalaqa lakum min anfusih, And from His verses, Allah said, Allah said in His Kitab al-Qur'an al-Kareem, Wa min ayatihi an khalaqa lakum min anfusih, kum azwajah, li taskunu ilayha, wa ja'ala baynakum mawaddatun wa rahmah, inna fee thalika la ayatin li qawmin yatafakkaroon. In Surah Ar-Rum, Allah said, among His signs, and Allah called this one of His signs, Jalla Shah Anhu, and among His signs is this that He creates for you mates out of your own kind. So that, and Allah is now, mentioning three reasons for this. So that you find contentment, sukoon with them. And then He said, and therefore He puts in that relationship, mawadda wa rahmah, love and mercy between you. Inna fee thalika la ayatin li qawmin yatafakkaroon. And behold in this, there are signs and messages for people, And behold in this, there are signs and messages for people, who receive the blessings of Allah, who reflect and think, people who have intelligence. As I'm sure most of you know, if you don't know, you should be aware that in Islam, marriage is a legal contract. The khutba for the marriage and all of that is icing on the cake. The marriage is valid even if there is no khutba. It's a legal contract between two people in the presence of two witnesses after the payment of mahram. It's a legal contract between two people in the presence of two witnesses after the payment of mahram. The witnesses, the best of the witnesses is Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala Himself. And the ones making that contract will be accountable to Him. It is therefore essential to understand what they are contracting to do. The ayat of the Quran, which I recited before you, speaks about the institution of marriage and mentions specifically three features that Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala blessed it with. Allah used three words in this ayah. The first word that Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala used is sukoon. And Allah says, وَمِنْ آيَاتِهِ أَنْقَلَقَ لَكُمْ مِنْ أَنفُسِكُمْ أَزْوَاجًا لِتَسْكُونُوا إِلَيْهَا And among His signs is this that He creates for you mates out of your own kind, so that you may find sukoon with them. Sukoon is a word which we also use in Urdu. So those of you who know Urdu, you know what it means. In Arabic, in the diacritical marks, the symbols on the letters, which are added to the letters to modify their pronunciation and meaning, they indicate how the letter is to be pronounced. Fatha, dhamma, kathra and sukoon, these are called haraka. The word haraka means the word that is used in the Quran. It is the word that is used in the Quran. Haraka in Urdu, harkat means movement. So fatha, dhamma, kathra shows whether the letter is to be pronounced as A, E or O. Sukoon is the opposite of haraka. Sukoon is the absence of movement. So when there is a sukoon on a letter, that letter is going over. That letter is in the same place. Sukoon is the opposite of haraka. Sukoon is the absence of movement. Sukoon is the absence of movement. Sukoon is the absence of movement. Sukoon Jeffery is you. Sukoon is the absence of movement...
