<br />
Islam gives us the following 5 elements that are essential to help rekindle our relationships.<br />
<br />
<b>1. Smile Often</b><br />
<br />
The Prophet used to smile often. So much so that the sahaba would say They never watched anyone smile over him.<br />
<br />
A simple smile can sometimes be very powerful in making a relationship strong.<br />
<br />
Dear Husband or Wife; we all have long and strenuous days. Rather than bombarding your spouse with complaints on first sight, then engage them with a smiling face.<br />
<br />
The Prophet also told us that easy smile is an act of charity.<br />
<br />
<b>2. Say Sweet things</b><br />
<br />
Prophet Muhammad would say:<br />
<br />
"Whoever believes in Allah and the Day of Judgment permit them Say good or keep silent."<br />
<br />
It's very simple to nitpick at our spouses. We are about each Other the time.<br />
<br />
Rather than searching out flaws, point outside qualities.<br />
<br />
Try to make it a new daily habit of complimenting your spouse.<br />
<br />
<b>3. Don't Get Carried Away by Anger</b><br />
<br />
When Ali married Fatimah, the Prophet (peace be upon him) Gave him amazing words of information.<br />
<br />
Advice so significant that the Prophet repeated it three times:<br />
<br />
"Don't get Angry".<br />
<br />
He did not tell him restrain you anger, but rather do not become mad in the first location.<br />
<br />
We get angry at our partners for the silliest things, from The way they squeeze the toothpaste bottle to how they wash the dishes.<br />
<br />
Chill out. Instead, smile and say something sweet.<br />
<br />
<b>4. Go Out Together</b><br />
<br />
The Prophet would spend quality time together with his spouse.<br />
<br />
He did not live a separate life under the same roof.<br />
<br />
He would go on walks with his wife, travel with his wife, And seek her advice. He would participate in stimulating conversation.<br />
<br />
When was the last time you took spouse out for a nice dinner (not speaking about curry in a hurry) or went outside for a cup of coffee?<br />
<br />
<b>5. Say "I Love You"</b><br />
<br />
The Messenger of Allah was not afraid to profess his love [http://aboutislam.net/shariah/prophet-muhammad/a-home-based-on-love/].<br />
<br />
Our religion is built on it as Allah states:<br />
<br />
"My love is guaranteed for 2 who adore one another for My sake".<br />
<br />
He'd frequently speak of the Fantastic affection he had for his wife Khadijah.<br />
<br />
"Her love was given to me as Rizq" he was quoted as saying.<br />
<br />
You are likely unable to remember the last time you said it to our partner. That is not recommended in Islam.<br />
<br />
<b>Conclusion:</b><br />
<br />
So there you have it:<br />
<br />
Smile, Say Something Sweet, Don't Get Angry, Go Out and Say " I Love you" -- remember and practice.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13290515452356323278noreply@blogger.com0
