Lesson
Islam is a natural religion and
complete Rule under practice for the entire life of human being. It shows the way
of acquiring betterment and welfare for the life in this world and Hereinafter.
Islam contains completely upon the entire sections of human life. There is none
problem of the life solution of which it doesn't explain and there is no
direction, commands about which it doesn't issue.
Collective life of the mankind begins
from family. If the family life is successful and the relationship between
husband and wife are in well condition then it is evident that every person
will find oneself in a very good atmosphere. He may be able to do his work with
good manner. The children will find superior models for themselves and they
will follow their elders on the straight path at the time of their maturity. So
Islam makes better the family life of a Muslim. The husband and wife have
central position in the dynasty. If there are good relations and mutual
cooperation between them, then each child of that family will go ahead upon the
way of improvement step by step easily. But if the relationship between husband
and wife is in worse condition and they are disunited due to their thoughts and
deeds, then it is much difficult for them to move forward collectively, and
their misunderstanding will prove fatal also for their children.
Islam is also apprised this side of human
nature and determines lawful to the divorce in case of pressure. If any person
wishes to divorce, then he should do so after deep meditation. If the woman
feels lamentation due to her husband’s behavior, then she may also be gotten released.
But the Divine Law of Religion has imposed some orders and restrictions to
realize the importance of married relationships of man and woman, for instance
if the husband has devised firm resolve of divorce and doesn't reconcile during
the period of ‘iddat (term) after the second divorce, moreover he
divorces her wife third time, then he can’t re-marry with her after it. If he
wants to re-wed then its condition is very harsh. That is to say; any other
person would have to wed the divorced woman, do the act of intercourse with her
and then either divorce her with his will or he dies, and then thereafter she
has to complete her ‘iddat period. This remarriage is called literally Halaalah. But after this Halaalah
the re-marriage can only be done in this form while both of them establish
according to the orders of Allah Almighty, because they both have to think
about paying the rights of one another, and have to believe in it. Otherwise
situation of the destruction of one another’s rights and their mutual quarrels
will come again. And they both will fall in sin.
Holy Messenger (grace, glory,
blessings and peace be upon him) has cursed those men in one Hadith out
of his Sayings, who make it (divorce) their profession, because a man weds a
divorced woman for the purpose that he will divorce her again, so that her
first husband may re-marry this above-mentioned woman.
Sorrow that we, the Muslims didn't
recognize the rights of these questions and made the religion droll. Which
restrictions were imposed by the Divine Law of Religion on divorce, didn't care
for them. As and when we wanted, we divorced without thinking. Whenever the
anger subsided, we gained our wits, began to lament and we chose unlawful forms
of Halaalah. All this badness grew due to carelessness from the
religion, ignorance, foolishness and not respecting the problems.
