Chapter: Bringing the bride to her husband
Al-Matalib al-'Aliyah 1636 — Bringing the bride to her husband
اُردوEn
حَدَّثَنَا زَكَرِيَّا ، ثَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ حُجَيْرٍ ، عَنْ طَاوُسٍ ، قَالَ : " لَا يَتِمُّ نُسُكُ الشَّابِّ حَتَّى يَتَزَوَّجَ ".
It is narrated from Imam Tawus (may Allah have mercy on him) that he said: "A young man's worship, abstinence and piety do not reach completion until he is joined in the bond of marriage."
What is meant by this saying is that during youth marriage is a strong shield of protection against the desires of the self and against temptations; and as long as a person has not safeguarded his chastity and purity through marriage, his acts of worship do not acquire the composure of heart and spiritual maturity that are the aim of servitude. That is why marriage holds fundamental importance for building a righteous society and for attaining individual piety.
