Bismillah Hir Rahmaan Nir Raheem
Assalaamu alaykum wa rahmatuallahi wa barakatuhu
Loving Allah & Allah's messenger first
The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, says: "Three qualities, if found
in a person, will help him have perfect faith: Having Allah and His Messenger,
peace and blessings be upon him, as the most beloved ones, loving a person only
for the sake of Allah and hating getting back to Kufr (disbelief) the way one
hates to be thrown into fire."
Lower Gaze & Guard Modesty
“…believing men and women should lower their gaze” (An-Nur: 30). The couple,
however, are not permitted to be alone in a closed room or go out together
alone.
Hadith says: "When a man and a woman are together alone, the Shaytan (Satan)
makes their third."
Lovers to be united
Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said: “There is nothing
better for two who love each other than marriage.” (Sahih Al-Jami`, 5200)
Consent before marriage
The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "The widow and the divorced
woman shall not be married until she has consented to that and the virgin shall
not be married until her consent is sought.
Criteria for marriage
The Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, says: “A woman may be
married for four things: her wealth, her lineage, her beauty and her commitment
to religion. Choose the one who is religious, may your hands be rubbed with
dust [i.e., may you prosper]!” (Agreed-upon Hadith).
Al-Tirmidhi HadithHadith 5592 Narrated byThawban
The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "My reservoir is like the distance
between Aden and Amman in al-Balqa'. Its water is whiter than milk and sweeter
than honey, and its cups are as numerous as the stars in the sky. He who takes
one drink of it will never thirst thereafter. The first to come down to it will
be the poor emigrants, those with dishevelled heads and dirty clothes, who do
not marry delicate women and do not have doors opened for them."
Ahmad, Tirmidhi and Ibn Majah transmitted it, Tirmidhi saying this is a gharib
tradition.
Souls Get along whom they recognise
Imam Ahmad ibn Hanbal (may Allaah have mercy on him) narrated in his Musnad
the hadeeth of ‘Aa’ishah (may Allaah be pleased with her): A woman used to go
to Quraysh and make them laugh. She came to Madeenah and stayed with a woman
who also made people laugh. The Prophet (blessings and peace of Allaah be upon
him) said: With whom is So and so staying? She said: With So and so, who makes
people laugh. He said: “Souls are like conscripted soldiers; those whom they
recognize, they get along with, and those whom they do not recognize, they will
not get along with.” The original version of this hadeeth is in al-Saheeh.
Surah Isra 17 verse 80 Say: "O my Lord! let my entry be by the Gate of Truth
and Honor and likewise my exit by the Gate of Truth and Honor; and grant me
from Thy Presence an authority to aid (me)."
Ameen.

Al-Tirmidhi HadithHadith 2482 Narrated by AbuHurayrah (May Allah be pleased
with him)
Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) used to say, " O Allah, grant me benefit
in what Thou hast taught me, teach me what will benefit me, and increase my
knowledge. Praise be to Allah in all circumstances. I seek refuge in Allah from
the state of those who go to Hell."
Tirmidhi and Ibn Majah transmitted it, Tirmidhi saying this is a tradition
whose isnad is gharib.
Transliteration:an Abi Hurairah (radiya Allahu anhu) qaal:
qaala Rasul Allah (salla Allahu alayhi wa sallam):"Allahumma infa'ni bima
'allamtani, wa allimni maa yanfa'oni wa zidni 'ilman, alhamdulillahi alaa kolli
haal, wa a'odtho billahi min haali ahlil naar."
