The 6 Things That Destroy a Marriage
Marriage in Islam is about trust, affection and support. Well, both of you must treat each other nicely. It is always a two-sided bond.
Here are 6 Things That Can Destroy Your Marriage:
- 1: Not being sensitive or insightful of your husband's preference. Fixing your relationship should start by fixing yourself first, especially your relationship with Allah.
- 2: Telling your husband what he should be doing or should do all the time. Nobody wants to be told what to do. It doesn't make them want to do it more. They usually interpreted it as criticism. Tell it to him in a sincere and loving way without using sarcasm.
- 3: How we say things makes the difference. We have to learn as women to be mindful of the words that come out of our mouths.
- 4: Holding grudges. Don't let negative emotions fester because you will eventually explode and say things you might regret. If you do that it means the pain is still there and you haven't healed from it. Forgive him and forgive yourself. Don't forget it and just use it as a lesson for you.
- 5: Thinking you are right and he's wrong. It has to be less who is right and less who is winning. Focus on what is wrong in the marriage. Your marriage could be worse but it could be better, there's so much room for improvement.
- 6: Being negative. Thinking and feeling that your marriage won't work is extremely bad. Allah SWT will help us if we increase our gratitude towards him and towards our husbands.
- Not being sensitive or insightful of your husband's preference. Fixing your relationship should start by fixing yourself first, especially your relationship with Allah.
All relationships have ups and downs, happy seasons and difficult seasons, agreements and disagreements. Be mature enough to step up and break the cycle, be on the same team and put each other first. Most of all, go love your person, you chose them for a reason.
