BLESS OUR MARRIAGE





















Oh Allah, bless our marriage


and let it be a means for us

to become closer to You

in love and devotion.

Let it be a source of untold blessings,

happiness and joy.


Oh Allah, let our marriage

be a way for us

and our families to enter Jannah.



Ya Allah,

protect our marriage

from the whisperings of Shaytan.

Give us the strength

to live together in justice,

equity, love and, mercy.



My Lord,

let this marriage

bring untold blessings

to us individually, to our families,

and our children Insha Allah.



Oh Allah,

give us the love

which you had blessed Muhammad (Allah's peace and blessings be upon him),

and Khadijah (may Allah be pleased with her)."

ROMANCE YOUR SPOUSE

You're my sunshine and my all-year-round valentine

Roses for my love one

On my knees, I present you the roses

At a favourite corner of our house

At the talk on 'Romance Your Spouse'

We won this book in one of the games

MY VALENTINE OR TURPENTINE BUT NOT SERPENTINE
Ended the week with a talk on 'Romance Your Spouse'. The talk was conducted by a married couple who shared on how to maintain a good relationship with your spouse. Some games were played and points on what make a successful marriage was shared.
We ended up having dinner at Safra and discussing what the presenter had shared. A marriage need not have two individuals to be on the save wavelength to make the marriage a success. You just need to be able to ride each other's waves. People stay in love because of chemistry, or because they remain intrigued with each other, because of many kindnesses, because of luck. But part of it has got to be forgiveness and gratefulness.
We have been married for 23 years. We have our ups and downs and our fair share of tears and laughters. We inject humour in the relationship to soothe the bruised nerves and tight situations. But we believe that chains do not hold a marriage together. It is threads, hundreds of tiny threads which sew people together through the years.
