2- The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) used consult his
wives in important issues and sought their opinion. As happened
on the occasion of Hudaybiya treaty. The Prophet Muhammad
(peace be upon him) consulted his wife Umm e Salmah (may
Allah pleased with her) and followed her suggestion.(5)
And these are his teachings but the question is: do we try to
follow his footsteps?

If you will adopt the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) as
your ideal and role model you surely will avoid many problems of
your marital life, such as Talaq, separation, divorce, and many
other social and family issues.
Why Marriage?
Some of our brothers and sisters may say Dr. Sahib! We are in
the twenty first century, the age of internet, open sky, online
shopping and international friendship. Now, the whole world has
become a small room in communication and information then why
marriage? Do we need the old and outdated traditions?
I will say and advise those brothers and sisters; in fact you are in
illusion.
First of all you are a Muslim and your ideal is the Prophet
Muhammad (peace be upon him). The honored messengers and
Prophets got married and had wives and offspring.

And suppose another person, or one of your friends who is in his
seventy, who is also sick, and weak but he is surrounded by his
wife, son, daughter, grandsons and granddaughters, please, tell
me who is more satisfied with his life; you or your friend? Who is
more confident; you or your friend? Who is more honored and
blessed; you or your friend?
