“Do people actually know their rights and responsibilities in a marriage before getting into one? 🤔 Like genuinely know them, not just have a rough idea. I feel like a lot of people go into marriage with expectations but without actually understanding what Islam says about what you owe your spouse and what they owe you. And then when things get hard, that's where it falls apart. “
Someone asked the above significant question here. But it was quite unfortunate that I didn’t get to answer before I lost track of his page. But incase him or anyone here comes across the answer below find it worth reading.
“I completely agree with this. I think many people fail to realize that they need to deeply understand their specific rights and responsibilities before entering a marriage. Too often, couples rely on oversimplified, cultural scripts. For example, a woman might think, "My husband will provide, and my only job is to bear children and maintain the home." Meanwhile, the husband thinks, "As long as I provide a roof over her head and financial support, I’ve fulfilled my role." They enter into marriage assuming these bare minimums are enough, without ever discovering what is truly required to sustain a healthy relationship. Neither gender takes the time to study the actual scriptures to understand their divinely appointed roles, let alone how to practice them with emotional intelligence.
The reality is that marriage in Islam is explicitly defined as a partnership built on mutual emotional sanctuary, not just a financial or physical transaction. As the Quran states in Surah Ar-Rum (30:21): “And of His signs is that He created for you from yourselves mates that you may find tranquility in them; and He placed between you affection and mercy.”
From a legal standpoint, the Nikah is a binding sacred contract (Mithaqan Ghaliza). While Islamic law clearly outlines fixed legal thresholds—such as the husband's mandatory financial maintenance (Nafaqah) and the wife’s right to her own independent wealth—it was never meant to be executed as a cold, transactional business arrangement. The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) elevated the legal contract into a moral code of deep companionship, stating: “The best of you are those who are best to their wives.”
It is deeply saddening that we don’t communicate our actual feelings, needs, and expectations before marriage to gauge true compatibility. There are thousands of crucial pre-marital questions out there that couples completely bypass. We need to remain genuinely curious about our partners and learn what truly makes them happy. Marriage is not about doing what you think is sufficient; it is about actively fulfilling what matters most to your partner. Their happiness becomes your business. And if you realize during the talking stage that you cannot fulfill their desires or make them happy, have the maturity to leave them alone. Let them find their rightful match ahead.”
Super interesting that you can’t report a profile you suspect of being a bot. There are so many bots on this site and I believe Muzz likes it like that as a way to make it seem like they have a lot of members.
Every Desi mum, directly after hanging up the phone with relatives back home:
As Salam Aleikum . Having been on Muzz for about two weeks now, I didn't want to just rush into the community feed and start posting immediately. I wanted to lay low first, observe, and really experience how the app works. All I can say is... "Wow!"
It has been an eye-opening experience, but if there is one major takeaway I have so far, it’s this: many of us really need to work on our communication skills. Trust me, I say this because I had to learn the hard way myself. In the past, I had to take a step back, figure out exactly where and how my own communication was falling short, and consciously make significant improvements. It takes effort, but it changes everything.
Because of that journey, I highly value meaningful interaction now. If you are looking to connect, let's bring our best communication etiquette forward. Healthy conversations, mutual respect, and genuine effort make all the difference. Looking forward to connecting with those who value the same! Barakallahu Feek
Every man wants to marry a woman who gives him peace, but many men forget that woman's peace is a reflection of how he treats her.
Marriage is about partnership not being dominant to each other… talking about what are our opinion about something and show the proof,
Anything can be talk nicely not judging….
I just remembered when this girl posted a picture of the sunset on her story and captioned it “subhanallah tingz”. It was too funny
