[quote]I hope I am not being too premature in saying this, but I seriously feel that people today make too many spontaneous decisions - most of them based on where the heart is inclined at a particular moment, while not trying to make longer term sense by using the God-gifted mind.

Same is the problem with divorce rates. The immense influence of Western lifestyle in our societies has been translated by means of an upsurge in the so-called 'feminist' and 'modernist' ideas:

"Stand up for your rights! Be bold!"

"Don't just stay quiet and bear. Act. Act now!"

"It is your right to get a divorce. Islam gives you this right!"

Of course, Islam gives both men and women this right. But if you look at it with a little concentration, you'll discover how it is something undesirable in the sense that it must be a matter of last resort.

I am just suggesting that people should try and keep the word "divorce" out of their heads. They must work to tell themselves that that is not a possibility, because otherwise, that comes forth as 'the easy way out' and bam! I'm divorced!

Keep the thought out of your system and only then will you be committed towards formulating a solution.

Peace to all.
