given by an Imam at a Muslim wedding. This particular speech was
translated from Arabic, I believe. I do not know the author's name:
Wedding Khutbah
"Thanks be to Allah that we praise Him, pray to Him for help; ask Him
for pardon; we believe in Him,We trust Him; and ask Himto guard us
from the evil of our own souls and fromthe evil consequences of our
own deeds. Whomsoever He leaves straying no one can guide him. I bear
witness that there is no God save Allah, who has no partner, and I
bear witness that Muhammad is His servant and messenger, whom He has
sent with truth as a bringer of good news and a warner.
The best word is the book of Allah, and the best way is that of
Muhammad, on whom be peace. The worst of all things are innovations
and every innovation leads astray, and every thing that leads astray
leads to Hell.
Whosoever obeys Allah and His messenger will be guided aright and
whosoever disobeys will cause loss to his own self (and thereafter).
Hereafter,I ask the refuge of Allah from Shaytan, the outcast.
O mankind! Be careful of your duty to your Lord who created you from a
single soul and from it created its mate and from them twain hath
spread abroad a multitude of men and women. be careful of your duty
towards Allah in whom you claim (yourrights) of one another, and
toward the wombs (that bear you). Lo, Allah hath been a watcher over
you. [Surah Al Nisa' 4:1]
O ye who believe! Observe your duty to Allah with right observance,
and die not save as those who have surrendered (unto Him). [Surah Ali
'Imran 3:102]
O ye who believe! Guard your duty to Allah, and speak words straight
to the point; He will adjust your works for you and will forgive you
your sins. Whosoever obeyethAllah and His messenger,he verily hath
gained a signal victory. [Surah Al Ahzab 33:70-71]"
Marriage is one of the most important acts of worship in Islam. The
Prophet Muhammad (Sallallaahu layhi Wasallam) has told us how to live
as Muslims. One of the branches of faith is marriage. It has been thus
narrated in a Hadeeth that when a person marries, he has complete half
of his religion and so he should fear Allah regarding the remaining
half.
Shame, modesty, moral and social values and control of self desire are
just a few of the many teachings of Islam. Furthermore, these are just
a few of the many worships that a person can complete by performing
the ritual of marriage. Through marriage a person can be saved from
many shameless and immoral sins and through marriagehe has is more
able to control his desire. Therefore, the Prophet (Sallallahu Alayhi
Wa Sallam) has said:
"O young men! Whoever is able to marry should marry, for that will
help him to lower his gaze and guard his modesty." [Sahih al-Bukhari]
Marriage is a strong oath that takes place between the man and women
in this world, but its blessings and contract continues even in
Jannah. It is the way of our beloved Prophet (Sallallahu Alayhi Wa
Sallam), and whosoever goes against this practice has been
reprimanded.
Hadhrat Anas ibn Malik narrates:
A group of three men came to the houses of the wives of the Prophet
(Sallallaahu layhi Wasallam) asking how theProphet worshipped (Allah),
and when they were informed about that,they considered their worship
insufficient and said:
"Where are we compared to the Prophet as his past and future sins have
been forgiven?"
Then one of them said: "I will offer the prayer throughout the night forever."
The other said: "I will fast throughout the year and will not break my fast."
The third said: "I will keepaway from the women and will not marry forever."
