The importance of marriage (Nikkah) can be over emphasized in our society.

Good evening fellows on steem blockchain, it is with honour and gratitude for me to be back again in the house with my fellow steemian and today I would be sharing my experience on the lesson learnt on a program watched on TV station about the importance and impact of marriage in our society.

Going by the definition of marriage which my brotherhood in Islam called it Nikkah, it is the solemnization of two becoming one, why we called it solemnization is that all the people involved come together with decision of becoming one.

Even in Islam what make marriage to become qualified one is what we called dowries and witnessed to that effect should be in pubic. There is a Quran verse which say something about Nikkah in surah An-nisa 4: 3,4. This is what justify the above statement and as a man you are chance to marry as many as four in number because so that you won't fornicate around and if you cant act equitably among the four you are advised to marry one.

If I continue to bring verse that talk about that in Quran we won't go to the importance of marriage in general. But I would restrict myself to the main important of marriage.

• Islamically it is the sunnah of our holy Prophet Muhammad (SAW) and this is what he said about Nikkah; "Koola rosuulu lahi (SAW) tunkahu l marha li arbaha (li jamooliha, li nasabiha, li diiniha, li mooliha".

• in our society today, when you are married you are seem to be a responsible man or woman and people would accord respect to you as a married man compare to young person who is yet married.

• people see you to be a reasonable person who would think front and back before applying his knowledge on whatever situation such person he facing and you are seeing as crime free person. This mean before you put your stake on line you would consider your family first.

But it is normal to have many advantages That attribute to marriage but on the other side of this we have some many difficulty faced nowadays while people don't want get married in our society today particular among the youth of this generation.

• While consulting some youth who I thought is eligible by age to have marry in my area some based the issue why some of them were still yet not married on the economy of the nation at large. They further explained that you must have a reasonable source of income before you can think of considering marriage and in this country where you can boast of getting job when you graduate from institution. I was told that it not age matter that determines whether you would get married earlier but what you would feed the family with which is the source of income for raising the family.

• Another person based is on point on freedom of association, he explained that people don't get married at earlier stage because they also want to socialize first before they got hook up finally with one person.

But after all the wide consultation from people, I concluded that, mostly the economy of this nation contributed a lot to people to avoid marriage at earlier stage of their life because there is no job to fetch them cash to survive but nevertheless should we attached it to the economy alone. I quite believed In the Quran verse that Say if you are fearing poverty and you don't want get married, do what he pleased your God and leave the rest with our creature.
