Surah Ar-Rum 30:21:
Among His signs is that He created for you mates from among yourselves, in order to have tranquility with them and He put love and mercy between your (hearts) : verily in that are signs for those who reflect.
Ahmad (5/282) Tirmidhee and Ibn Majah from Thawbaan, Saheeh ul-Jaami 5355: The Prophet (may peace and blessings be upon him) said: “The most perfect believer in faith is the one whose character is finest and who is kindest to his wife.” Sunan Ibn Majah, Book of Marriage, Number 1847, Sahih: Ibn Abbas reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “We do not see for those who love one another anything like marriage.” At-Tabarani, Al-Mu’jam Al-Awsat, Number 6067: Abu Huraira reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “The basis of reasoning, after faith in Allah, is loving kindness toward the people.” Sahih Muslim, Book 32, Number 6225: Abu Huraira reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Verily, Allah will say on the Day of Resurrection: Where are those who love each other for the sake of My glory? Today, I will shelter them in My shade; a Day when there is no shade but Mine.” |
