How The Muslim Marriage Works

Lay the foundation for a blissful Zawaj!

In Module 1:

Self Work, we embark on a journey of self-discovery. Guided by Islamic teachings, we explore the profound role of individual growth in building a thriving marital life. Here, we ask the question, “What’s Your Vision?” and examine your emotional and spiritual well-being through a “Holistic Health Check.” We will also understand how to “Respond to Triggers” in a manner consistent with the Sunnah.

In Module 2:

Making Marriage Work, we unveil the divine blueprint for a prosperous marriage. Here, we dive into “Attachment Theory” grounded in Islamic principles, delve into strategies for “Building Respect,” and illuminate the power of “Rituals of Connection” in fortifying your bond with your partner.

Module 3

Communication and Conflict Resolution will teach you the art of “Communicating Needs” and “Early Resolution” strategies in line with prophetic teachings. We’ll discuss the Islamic ethos of “Resetting From a Conflict” to ensure peace and respect remains paramount in your relationship.

Module 4

Transitions in Marriage, we explore the art of navigating changes that come with marriage – “New Relationships,” “Adjusting to a New Home,” and understanding the value of “The Healthy Compromise” as per Islamic tradition.
