Summary
Marriage partners are part of Allah's decree, yet Muslims are encouraged to pray and strive to find a spouse of good character, religion and responsibility. Islam views misfortune in terms of goodness before Allah, holding that all harm and benefit come from Him. Ease and hardship are tests, so believers are taught to improve themselves and accept His decree. If a couple cannot continue the marriage, Islam also provides a proper solution.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Isteri yang baik untuk lelaki yang baik, manakala isteri yang tidak baik untuk lelaki yang tidak baik.
