School and Marriage : The Relationship
I found this in fb, and I thought it would be a bless to share it with everyone. Thanks to my friend Anis and also 'Be Productive Muslim.'
Welcome to the school called marriage:
... A school where you will never graduate,
... A school without a break or a free period,
... A school where no one is allowed to drop out,
... A school which you will have to attend every day of your life,
... A school where there is no sick leave or holidays.
A school founded by God (Allah):
1. On the foundation of love,
2. The walls are made out of trust,
3. The door made out of acceptance,
4. The windows made out of understanding
5. The furniture made out of blessings
6. The roof made out of faith
♥ Before you forget, you are just a student not the principal, God (Allah) is the Principal.
♥ Even in times of storms, don't be unwise and run outside, remember this school is the safest place to be.
♥ Never go to sleep before completing your assignments for the day.
♥ Never forget the C-word, Communicate, communicate,
communicate to your classmate and to the Principal (Allah).
♥ If you find out something in your classmate (spouse) that you do not appreciate, remember your classmate is also just a student not a graduate, God is not finished with him/her yet.
♥ So take it as a challenge and work on it together.
♥ Do not forget to study, study, study your Qur'an αnd Hadith (the only two main textbooks in this school).
♥ Start each day with a sacred assembly and end it the same way.
♥ Sometimes you will feel like not attending classes, yet you have to.
♥ When tempted to quit, find courage and continue.
♥ Some tests and exams may be tough but remember the Principal (Allah) knows how much you can bear.
♥ But still the school is better than any other.
♥ It is one of the best schools on earth; joy, peace and happiness accompany each lessons of the day.
♥ Different subjects are offered in this school, yet love is the major subject.
♥ After all the years of theorizing about it, now you have a chance to practice it.
♥ To be loved is a good thing, but to love is a greatest privilege of them all.
Marriage is a place of love, so love your spouse!
p/s-also a note to myself :)
