868. ENJOINMENT OF MARRIAGE

(وَأنْكِحُوا الْأَيامَى مِنْكُمْ والصّالِحِينَ مِنْ عِبادِكُمْ وَإمائكُمْ إن يَكُونُوا فُقَرَاءَ يُغْنِهِمُ اللَّهُ مِن فَضْلِهِ وَاللَّهُ وَاسِعٌ عَلِيمٌ) .1

"Marry off those who are single among you and the upright ones from among your male slaves and your female slaves. If they are poor, Allah will enrich them out of His grace, and Allah is all-bounteous, all-knowing." 2

(وَمِنْ آياتِهِ أنْ خَلَقَ لَكُم مِنْ أنْفُسِكُم أزْواجاً لِتَسْكُنُوا إلَيها وَجَعَلَ بَيْنَكُم مَّوَدَّةً وَرَحْمَةً إنَّ فِي ذلِكَ لَآياتٍ لِّقَوْمٍ يَتَفَكَّرُونَ) .3

"And of His signs is that He created for you mates from your own selves that you may take comfort in them, and He ordained affection and mercy between you. There are indeed signs in that for a people who reflect." 4
