Elidicious 0 Posted February 19, 2007 (edited) So it should be lived to the max,for the sake of Allah(swt).Inshallah. noooooo these are 2 different things. i read pretty carefully what righteous said. he said :"living life to the fullest" isn't something a Muslim should ever say" and he also said that we must live for the sake of God.You only said: live life to the fullest....(which is not suppsed to be mentioned by muslims...)

Elidicious 0 Posted February 19, 2007 you should want to live your life to the fullest in the sense that you are doing your best to please Allah :sl: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Z19bm 0 Posted February 19, 2007 Sister stop trying to be complicated, I just explained it. What you think to be good in "living life to the fullest" is different to a Muslims idea of "living life to the fullest" I hope that is clear now, Mehmet Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aaqib Ahmed 2 Posted February 19, 2007 (edited) If you read what I put after, By that I mean follow Islam[using large font size is not allowed] to your full potential,worship Allah(swt) to the best you can and really strive to be the best muslim you can be. Strive to reach your full Islamic potential.Live each day as your last. :) So inshallah I made it clear after when I said life live to the max. As we are going off topic,to stop us from being warned,if you want to discuss this further,start a new topic. Edited February 19, 2007 by Aaqib Ahmed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

{(~Genetic Fr3ak~)} 0 Posted May 16, 2007 Its not the age that should be the factor with regards to marriage it is when u attain a state of maturity and stability in your life , the way u perceive life, people and your relationship with them. Now this may range from person to person regardless of age ... just my two cents of over the top smartness Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Muslim-for-Allah 1 Posted April 9, 2009 Asslamo alykom , 18-25 for sure. Alhamdulliah I got married at 21 :sl: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Foxgarden 0 Posted April 13, 2009 25-30! I think that's when people are the most mature. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sampharo 0 Posted April 13, 2009 I think it's a measure of maturity that is important. Maturity varies between many people and cultures. 1000 years ago before schooling and curriculum and the complex demanding life of today, a man's requirement to marry was being a provider, which could have been either a merchant or a craftsman, or someone of knowledge or skill that a wealthy stateman would take into his court. Many people have been known to reach puberty and then get married at the age of 14 or 15, and lead a successful life. Some people got married at the age of 30 and were still immature and frivalous and separation was inevitable. If you are today able to imagine yourself taking a spouse and be responsible for their care and comfort and emotional well-being, and carry out your duties towards your children, then by all means go right ahead. I have a friend from the countryside whose father passed away and has taken care of his family's business from the age of 14, and got married at 16. He's leading a perfect life right now by anyone's standard. Another guy I know is 33 and still want to hop bars and dance salsa, and when you talk to him about settling down you hear a response of a teenager brat. :sl: So it's all relative I think.

Foxgarden 0 Posted April 13, 2009 I couldn't agree more, and while I think 25-30 on average represents the age people are most ready to enter into the bond that is marriage, maturity is a relative term. As Sampharo said, I know people who are over 40 years old and possess no more maturity than a high-schooler, while people exist who are half their age and carry on their shoulders a great deal more responsibility. It all depends on the individual, their upbringing, and how they choose to associate themselves. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iSee 0 Posted December 27, 2009 Whenever you find your soulmate I think..if you're a romantic like me lol I guess it depends on your perception of marriage and life in general as well. I mean, to me it's not about what my family thinks, what my friends think, how old I am, and what my body was designed for as a woman. To me love and marriage has a much deeper meaning and that is why it is not such a simple thing. I would be miserable to marry someone just to make everyone else happy. I don't settle for whatever works on surface, it is more about the soul..that's all for now :sl: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zebanoor 0 Posted December 27, 2009 Yup i agree with the post above. if i was to marry now, id make my husband life hell, i cant cook etc so he would be waking up and making himself breakfast, i cant look after myself let alone someone else. So i guess its when you feel ready and not when your family thinks it time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ewany 0 Posted December 28, 2009 Yes well I think the best age to marry is when you finished all your educations then get your first job then marry. :sl: But marry early is best. But not getting boyfriend/girlfriend early. Thats bad. I don't think you should even have a kind of relationship like that. Kiamah is near and you know what they say "Marriage is half our deen". XD 18-25. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SaracenSoldier 130 Posted December 28, 2009 As soon as a person is capable he should marry. Doesn't have to wait to be 18. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Doc 31 Posted October 25, 2012 I think when person is matured enough and knows they can support a family (not via government hand outs) then marriage ought to be considered. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the sad clown 3 Posted October 26, 2012 I think the answer to this question is contingent upon the socio-economic conditions of the surrounding culture than to any innate characteristic regarding a particular age. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
