Before you get married, make sure you know this:
1. Sakinah (سَكِينَة) – Tranquility / Peace
Emotional and spiritual calm that spouses bring to each other. A sense of safety, comfort, and serenity in each other’s presence.
Marriage should be a refuge from life’s stresses, not a source of them.
2. Mawaddah (مَوَدَّة) – Love / Deep Affection
A deep, active, and compassionate love, not just romantic feelings. Includes care, kindness, and giving to one another.
It’s the bond that strengthens over time.
3. Rahmah (رَحْمَة) – Mercy / Compassion
Forgiveness, patience, and empathy in dealing with each other’s flaws. Especially needed when love might fluctuate or be tested.
A reminder to treat your spouse with gentleness, love and understanding, even in tough times.
وَمِنْ ءَايَـٰتِهِۦٓ أَنْ خَلَقَ لَكُم مِّنْ أَنفُسِكُمْ أَزْوَٰجًۭا (لِّتَسْكُنُوٓا۟) إِلَيْهَا وَجَعَلَ بَيْنَكُم مَّوَدَّةًۭ ( وَرَحْمَةً ۚ) إِنَّ فِى ذَٰلِكَ لَـَٔايَـٰتٍۢ لِّقَوْمٍۢ يَتَفَكَّرُونَ ٢١
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. Indeed in that are signs for a people who give thought.
