What happens at a muslim marriage?
Muslim Wedding has two aspects, one is Relegious, and the other is Social aspect. Relegious cerememony is very simple. The Bridgroom arrives at Mosque, or Bride's house with his relatives. The relegious leader takes consent of the couple, The Bride normally does not sit among the crowed, she is inside another room, so, her Father, Uncle or some other relative with a couple of witness go there and seek her permission and consent for marriage. The bride has to say it loud. Then those witness come to male section and announce that bride has consented. The relegious leader (or anyother Muslim with sound relegious knowledge) recites verses from Holy Quran and Quotes the Sayings (Hadees) of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). The bridegroom is asked if he accepts the bride as her wife, and he accepts loudly all the participants become witness of the marriage, and they are declared Couple. Normally Dry Fruits and sweets are offered to participants of the occasion (Nikah), which may lead to a dinner or the bride or her father/Guardian sets an amount as "Mehar" which is bride's right to receive immediately or at a later stage. The amount is based on mutual understanding and prevailing financial condition of the bridgroom. The bride goes with the family of her husband to her in laws. The husbans has to invite family and friends at a Lunch Dinner or reception next day or within few days of marriage, this event is called Walima, and it is mandatory to those who may afford it, the extent is from few grains to a lavish dinner.... anything.
Socially, there are many traditions and customs associated with this function now, and marriage ceremeomony may last for few days owing to different occasions, pre-marriage events and post marriage events. The Muslim marriages are also colourful events, as the local culture and tradition are blended with the mentioned above relegious ceremony, so there may be a little musical enetertrainment, get togathers, dinners and lunches and active participation of Friends of the couple. In most cases the male and female stay separate for all the events, but liberal and modern society marriages are like combined parties.
The Norwegian philologist and literary historian Gunnar Hoest has little known about him. There is no information on him being married at all.
Can you get permanent alimony after 10 years of marriage?
Only a few states allow for permanent alimony because such an institution is generally frowned upon. As of this writing, only 3 states in America allow for permanent alimony, which are Massachusetts, Mississippi and Tennessee. The reason why many states fell out of favor with this is because permanent alimony was deemed too harmful to the payer and prevented the payer from beginning a new life. Were the payer to remarry and have children, the financial burden would be detrimental to the new family (which are now victims of the permanent alimony).
What do you do when hubby thinks he is king?
Answer When hubby thinks he is king, then let him hold the title all the time. A good king should be a great provider for his flock. He should dress his lady to the hilt with the finest of clothing and jewelry. Run his credit cards up and when he asks you why you did such a thing, tell him it's because you are the Queen of the house and you want him, the King, to treat you like the Queen you are. That should sicken him of playing King.

What are some promises of a man to their mistress?
he wants to be with you and he gives himself to you,
...how about i will leave my wife to be with you.
No, absolutely not. If you don't love her, you are doing her a big disservice by marrying her. How do you think she will feel about being married to someone that doesn't love her but has done so only out of obligation? How do you think she will feel later on when you DON'T learn to love her and you end up leaving her for someone you do (once her kid is 10-years-old and she's wasted ten years of her life on you)? She will feel used and much more hurt than she will if you don't marry her now. She is entitled to be with someone that loves her, and if you marry her, you will be taking away her opportunity to find someone that does. (Later, she will resent you tremendously for that.)
Plus, you can never predict whether you'll "learn to love her" or not. It's impossible to force yourself to love anybody, and if you don't love her now, what's there to make you change?
Why not hold off on the marriage part and date for another year or so? See how you feel about it then.
ANSWER
Ok, No one, and i mean no one should marry because there is a child involved. I'm sorry this is a difficult situation but you should marry someone because you love them and not just even because you love them but there are very many other things to take into consideration when getting into marriage. so be careful. If you think it will work out to marry them, i sure damn hope you're right 1,2,3, 4 years down the road. Important thing is be there for your kid Be the good father. thank you!
AnswerYes. In fact, there was a time when marraiges were arrainged and the couple only met when they were first married. They grew in love or were miserable. The fact that you know this girl and like her means you will eventually grow to love her and respect her. She deserves a husband to father the child and this child deserves a family. Get married for the child and stay married. AnswerI don't think you should marry this girl right away. Get to love her first, then ask her to marry you. It also depend on age. If you are mature enough to know for sure you will grow ot lvoe her, this would be a great time. Remember, there's no harm in waiting! AnswerIn my personal opinion it's not. Marriage is something that should be saved for people that LOVE each other. Not because you made a choice to not use protection ( not that it's what you did) or that you "might" eventually grow to love her. That's not what marriage is about. You can raise a child without marriage. It's a choice to make a commitment with the mother of the child. Make a commitment with yourself to be in the child's life. But your choice to marry someone to eventually grow to love someone would be much worse then having a child out of wedlock. That is a disservice to you, her, and the child. That is a marriage that is set up to fail.Make a commitment, see what happens. If you are going to grow to love her... then it will happen even if you just make a personal commitment to work on you, and this relationship and raising a child. So waiting to get married isn't going to hurt anything, it will help you NOT be a statistic ( in the marriage department anyway) Yes love grows, but marriage isn't going to make that happen any faster, better, longer, lasting, any of the delusions that some people think that marriage is about. It's harder then most think. It's work, it's daily. It's not what makes love. It's what you have before that matter. Marriage is not a tool. What did you have before you got married? What did your relationship consist of before you got married? What would marriage do for your relationship? Marriage is not easy.. a lot of people have this grand illusion that you will be IN LOVE forever. That simply isn't true. If you talk to those people that have been married for 65 years. They tell you, you fall out of love. That doesn't mean you don't love your partner. It just means that IN LOVE honeymoon, shiney, glimmer in your eyes, all romance, floating in the clouds, pack your lunch with notes and kisses, scatter rose petals everywhere for you feelings aren't always reality. Of course love is always there... but reality sets in... and life grips you and it's not all romance. It is the good the bad and the ugly that make it. When the honeymoon is over, the chrome is wore off, you have some hurt feelings, you don't feel so lovey dovey anymore.. yeah. I do believe you should have already grown that love before you commit to death do you part for a thought of eventually growing that love... That true love.. that love that when you think of living your life without, makes you sick to your stomach. That love that inspires you, makes you mad, yeah sometimes hurts your feelings. Even misses the important things to you. The love that would go to ends of earth for you.. the love that stands with you. It's something that you can't find a word for. It's integrity. You don't eventually grow that, when you got it, you know it. Don't marry it for the possibility... wait and see.
AnswerIt is sad is that most of the people who answered this question are not thinking about the child. It is selfish to think only of your own happiness when you've made the decision to bring another life into this world. I take Dr. Laura's stand on this issue. I don't agree with everything she says, but when it comes to children she has the right view. Since birth, EVERYTHING you do should be for the child. If you are not thinking of that child, then you do not deserve him/her. If you don't love the mother and cannot marry her, then at least you should live close by and be a VERY active father. You might even consider a marraige of convenience where you simply get married and live in the same house, but separate rooms. You don't have to sleep together and you should not date (stay faithful like any other marraige because it would mess that child up to bring others into his/her life). This way you can be parents for the child. Just a thought.Answer
As a single mom, I would advise you not to marry her. The best thing for the child is love and support, and he or she can get that from his or her mother. I agree that everything you do should be for the child. That is why you find a good pediatrician, take pre-natal classes and vitamins and learn how to burp properly. Sometimes, the best thing for a child is having two parents who are not married, but are happy. If you fall in love with the child's mother, get married. Have more kids even! The most important thing for the child is for him or her to know that they are loved. They will understand the family dynamic and one day everything will be explained to them. Love your child, care about his or her mother, be there, be a good father, an active father. A sham marriage on top of all of the stress of parenthood would make matters worse, in my opinion. At the very least, wait. I've been through the single parenthood thing...my son is 9 months old. Be true to yourselves and don't get married.
EVERYONE LOOSES THERE COOL SOMETIMES , BUT IF HE HAS HIT U OR SHOVED YOU OR PUT HIS HANDS ON YOU IN ANYWAY THIS IS NOT EXCEPTABLE AND I WILL BET MY LIFE THAT IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN ,I KNOW ITS HARD TO THINK OF LEAVING YOUR HUSBAND CONSIDER COUNCELING GET HIM HELP ANGER MANAGEMENT WORK WITH HIM AND IF HE REALLY WANTS TO CHANGE AND HE REALLY LOVES HIMSELF AND YOU ,, YOU CAN MAKE IT WORK - IF HE DOESNT YOU WILL LIVE A LIE AND FUTURE INCIDENTS WILL OCCUR
Most people have something attractive about them. If you find yourself entertaining sexual and/or intimate feelings towards someone other than your spouse, stop it. Get away from the lure if possible... they are merely the bait of sin because your mind has given them that quality. If removing yourself from them is not a feasible option, ask yourself if that person means more to you than your word to God and your eternal relationship with him.
Answer 2: Think about your vow to your mate before God and others. Grow up and put the brakes on, put your eyes elsewhere. Think about the consequences long and hard of getting involved with someone who is not your mate. The treachery and hurt you could cause to a spouse, children, friends and family. According to the Bible a person who is attracted to someone other than their mate has already committed adultery in their heart. See Matthew 5:27,28 and Matthew 15:19.
There is no quiz that is going to give you an answer to this one. I do know what you are talking about because I see my girlfriend of 30 years making a total fool out of herself with a so-called very good looking friend of hers and has a tit for tat game playing relationship with this man and does this right in front of her husband. Everyone knows that she is playing with fire and an emotion affair is called 'flirting!' Beware! I have two male friends (their wives are my good friends too) and we have witty sayings back and forth, but there is certainly no sexual attraction and no affair in sight. YOU are in control of your relationship and it's time you started to take control and start communicating your feelings to your husband. Let him know you don't care for the behavior between them no matter how innocent it is. Ask him how he would like this scenario reversed. Then you start communicating with your girlfriend and be crafty about it. Say something casual like, 'Men! Boy they can sure get under your skin. I was talking to a friend the other day and she's having problems with her husband bantering back and forth with a female friend of theirs and she thinks somethings up. I wonder if it's true?' She'll get the message loud and clear if there is anything going on. All you can do is communicate your feelings to both your husband and your best friend and there may not be anything to this problem you feel you have. Many women who know their friends husband will banter back and forth, hug or give a peck on the cheek, but there is nothing going on other than what you see with your own eyes. If your husband is flirtatious then you need to get some control over him and tell him straight up that he'll hit the bricks if he continues with his behavior. It's fine to banter with the opposite sex, but it depends on the subject line and also no long kissing, too much touching (other than a hug when greeting them or when the person is leaving). If he isn't flirtatious and is shy he may well not know how to handle this girlfriend of yours. Sometimes men try their best by being nice simply because they don't know what else to do. Enter the wife! I've had to do this with my own husband (shy and awkward with other women.) He complained to me it makes him nervous when a woman is too up close and personal with him and he truly is all thumbs. Once a yacht builders wife was actually throwing herself at my husband and chasing him around the yacht and as he went by for the third time he mouthed quietly, "Help." Finally I did interfere discreetly and told my husband I had something to discuss with him and to come sit next to him. That ended that! Why play games, just ask them together and see how they react. IF you feel that something was/is going on, you have the right to know. It takes two to tango and if this is going on they both stepped way over the boundaries and respect that they should have for you and themselves. People hiding an affair don't generally do so in the open and especially in front of the girlfriend or wife. That's why it's called cheating!
Origin of wedding anniversary?
Wedding anniversary has been invented or proposed by a woman, who after so many years after their first wedding, and now with a family, become bored that even her husband had neglected, forgot his matrimonial duty of kissing his wife as an expression of his love and affection. By way celebrating a milestone of marital success and to remember the passionate days of the relationship, woman first proposed to the husband to rekindle their love and partnership so they could go honeymoon, kiss and make love again. Those people who witnessed the celebration imitated until many people today continue to follow such tradition for wife's sake. John Bolinas, Toronto, Canada
Should marriage be done only once?

Explain how a Christian marriage service may help a couple in later life?
- A Christian marriage service could help a couple later in married life because of the symbolic reference to the couple's love for each other.
- The rings that are placed on the couple's fingers will remind them of their love for each other. They are able to just look at the ring on their and remind themselves of that special day. If they are going through a rough patch in their marriage, then being able to remind themselves might stop them splitting up and getting a divorce.
- Also, the vows the couple makes on their wedding day are the promises the couple have made to each other before God. In the vows it says 'In sickness and in health' and 'till death do us part'. This part of the vows show the couple and witnesses that they intend to stay with each other forever.
- At a Christian marriage service, there is a vicar or priest to represent God. God intends marriage to be life-lasting, and I think that the fact there is a vicar there in the service representing God makes the whole service that much more meaningful, and may make the couple stay with each other even though times may be hard in the future.
- She really isn't related to you as a sister at all. Your parents were made Godparents to he by her own parents so you are free to date her or marry her as she is not biologically related to you.
- In regards to the question above aIve unhappy for years, my husband is verbally abusive and controlling I wanted to leave him but he uses the children as leverage since I made the mistake of confessing the affair to him he know tells me that if I leave him I will only be a Sunday mom. He still continues his controlling ways, I can't go out alone, he keeps track of my phone bill, hacks my email, tracks my friends on my personal page online, he brings up the affair almost everyday, he blames me for all the problems in our relationship, I ask him for us to go to counseling and he tells me to find one because he is to busy to look for one.
- Cheating appears to be the easy way out for some people. You have to face the fact you are no longer in love with your husband and retain a lawyer and file for divorce and shared custody with your children. You are being unfair to your husband and your children by continuing to love another man and lying to your husband. Eventually the lie will catch up to you. Seek legal advice and do your husband a favor and set him free and also do your children a favor and not stay in a loveless marriage because eventually you will more than likely try to see your lover again. Someone will catch you and you could well lose your children if you continue on as you are, not to mention how you are hurting your husband.

Cheating on your spouse is never a good idea. Sooner or later he will find out, or at the very least suspect something is going on. Anger and resentment will simmer on both sides and eventually you will find yourself in a far worse situation than than the current one. Divorce can be nasty, and the months or years before the divorce can be an utter nightmare--take it from one who knows (although is was my husband who did the cheating). Have you discussed with your husband alternate ways to satisfy your needs? He has hands and a mouth, and there are tons of toys out there. If you have discussed this with him and he has rejected the idea, then you need to ask yourself which is more important to you: your love for your husband or sex. Consider how you would feel if he was the one cheating. If you want a child, you can adopt or be artificially inseminated. If you truly feel that you cannot be happy without an active sex life with another man, save both yourself and your husband a world of pain and make a clean break.
