Love FIQH of 2 Ml Muaadth Allie
A successful marital couple may be defined as being: “a committed team that strives to keep the connection despite and , in fact, with the aid of differences between the members.”
When a man and a woman marry, they commit to meeting certain intense and intimate emotional needs of the other on an exclusive basis.
Generally husbands and wives are willing to do for each other what they themselves appreciate most, but it turns out that their efforts are misdirected because what they appreciate the most, their spouses appreciate the least!
Often failure to meet each other’s needs is simply ignorance of the needs of the other rather than selfish unwillingness to be considerate.
By learning to understand yourself and your spouse as totally unique people with particular emotional needs, you can identify your needs and communicate them to each other.
Rum, verse 21: ((ومن آياته أن خلق لكم من أنفسكم أزواجا لتسكنوا إليها وجعل بينكم مودّة ورحمة إن في ذلك لآيات لقوم يتفكّرون)) “And of the signs of Allah is that He had created for you of you spouses that you might find sakinah[tranquility] by them. And He had placed between you love and mercy. Indeed in that are signs for a people that reflect.”

NB! Knowing what your spouse needs does not meet the need. You must learn new habits that transform that knowledge into committed action.
NB! If any of a spouse’s five basic emotional needs goes unmet, that spouse becomes vulnerable to the temptation of an affair!
AFFECTION: The Cement of a Relationship
Affection: the communication of care. Admiration: the communication of value, appreciation and respect.
To most women, affection symbolises: security, protection, comfort and approval.
Examples of affection include: Hugging Love letters A bouquet of flowers Invitation to dinner Opening and closing doors Walks Back rubs Phone calls Conversations
A hug translated into words says: “I care about you.” “You are important to me and I don’t want anything bad to happen to you.” “I’m concerned about the problems you face and I’ll try to help you overcome them.”
