THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm As-Sabt. 8th day of Rajab, 1445AH (Saturday, 20th January 2024).
*_FAMILY PLANNING IN ISLAM_*. BismilLah.
The institution of marriage and the want to have children was the custom of the best of creation, the PROPHETS and MESSENGERS chosen by ALLAH. ALLAH says about them
"And indeed I sent messengers before you and made for them wives and offspring" (al-Raad 38).
The best example for the believers is the example of the PROPHET MUHAMMAD sallallahu alaihi wasallam, who married and had children. These Prophets and Messengers are the people whom Muslims should look to emulate. ALLAH says
"They are those whom ALLAH has guided. So follow their guidance" (al-Anaam 90).
Islam has forbidden celibacy (state of not being married), monasticism (life of monks & nuns) and castration (removal of the male glands) for such purposes. The Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi wasallam made this clear when he told those companions who were considering acetic forms of life: "I pray and I sleep; I fast and I break my fast; and I marry women. Whoever turns away from my way of life is not from me." SubhaanAllah. To be continued tomorrow in Shaa ALLAH. *_May ALLAH keep guiding us all and protect us from any satanic influences_*. Aameen.
