The Jurisprudence Of Marriage In The Light Of The Quran And The Sunna By Dr Salih Ibn Ghanim Asadlan, Introdution 1.

The Jurisprudence Of Marriage In The Light Of The Quran And The Sunna is a book written by Doctor Salih bin Ghanim Asadlan, university professor at "Imam Muhammad Bin Saud University" in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The following will be a translation of the main chapters and areas of the book.

Introduction:

All praises due to ALLAH who created for us mates from ourselves and put love and mercy between us, verily this is one of the signs of the almighty.
And may peace and blessings be upon Muhammad who ALLAH has addressed saying: "and indeed we sent messengers before you, and made for them wives and offspring..."

As to what follows:

When it has become apparent that the affairs of marriage, Walima (marriage banquet), and the wedding became subjects that people needed much clarity on, i deemed it appropriate to write about this matter, its rules and implications.

I have narrowed the topics in this particular book to the matters of Mahr (dowry), the Walima (marriage banquet), Etiquettes of the wedding night, rights of the spouses, following this with a clarification of the mistakes and negative practices that some people do.

It is my hope that this book achieves its aim, ALLAH is the one able to benefit with it whomever reads it. And i ask ALLAH to put this work of mine in the scale of my good deeds on the day when no wealth or children would be of a benefit except who comes to ALLAH with a clean heart, and may peace and blessings be upon Muhammad, his family and his pious predecessors.
