1) Love between husband and wife
The Messenger of Allah said:
“There is nothing like marriage, for two who love one another.” [Sunan Ibn Majah 1847]
2) Marrying a virgin
The Messenger of Allah said:
'You
should marry virgins, for their mouths are sweeter, their wombs are more
prolific and they are satisfied with less.'” [Ibn Majah 1861]
Jabir bin Abdullah (RA) said:
“I married a woman during the time of the Prophet and he said: 'Have you got married, O Jabir?' I said: 'Yes'. He said: 'To a virgin or to a previously-married woman?' I said: 'A previously married woman.' He said: 'Why not a virgin so you could play with her?' I said: 'I have sisters and did not want her to create trouble between them and me.' He said: 'That is better then.' ” [Ibn Majah 1860]
3) Marrying a good, pious & religious woman
The Prophet SAW said:
“A woman may be
married for four things: Her wealth, her lineage, her beauty or for her
religion. Choose the religious, may your hands be rubbed with dust (i.e., may
you prosper).” [Ibn Majah 1858]
In another Hadith, the Prophet SAW said:
“Do not marry women for their beauty
for it may lead to their doom. Do not marry them for their wealth, for it may
lead them to fall into sin. Rather, marry them for their religion. A black
slave woman with piercings who is religious is better.” [Ibn Majah 1859]
4) Seeing woman when planning to marry her
Muhammad bin Salamah said:
“I proposed
marriage to a woman, then I hid and waited to see her until I saw her among
some date palm trees that belonged to her.” It was said to him: “Do you do such
a thing when you are a companion of the Messenger of Allah?” He said: “I heard
the Messenger of Allah saying: 'When Allah causes a man to propose to a woman,
there is nothing wrong with him looking at her.' ” [Ibn Majah 1864]
In another Hadith, it is reported:
Mughirah bin Shubah wanted to marry a woman. The Prophet (ﷺ) said to him: “Go and look at her, for that is more likely to create love between you.” So he did that, and married her, and mentioned how well he got along with her. [Ibn Majah 1865]
5) Announcing marriage/nikah (making it public)
6) Arranging daughter's marriage without her willingness & acceptance
“A girl came to the Prophet SAW and said:
'My father married me to his brother's son so that he might raise his status
thereby.' The Prophet gave her the choice, and she said: 'I approve of what my
father did, but I wanted women to know that their fathers have no right to do
that.' ” [narrated from Ibn Buraida: Ibn Majah 1874]
7) Sending Proposal
The Messenger of Allah SAW said:
“A man should not propose to a woman to whom his (Muslim) brother has already proposed.”
8) Marriage is Sunnah of Prophet Mohammad SAW
9) Nikah controls sexual desires & lowers gaze
10) Best time & recommended month for marriage
Aisha May Allah be pleased with her said:
"The Prophet (SAW),
married me in Shawwal, and he consummated the marriage with me in Shawwal, and
which of his wives was more favored to him than I." 'Airhuh used to like
marriage to be consummated with her female relatives in Shawwal.
11) Prohibition of temporary marriage
Ali Ibn Abu Talib (RA) narrates that:
The Messenger of Allah forbade on the Day of Khaibar, the temporary marriage of women and (he forbade) the flesh of domestic donkeys." [Ibn Majah 1961]
