Threats to marriage stem from a number of sources, including over-emphasis on wealth, ethnicity, family status, physical appearance, professions, etc. These causes can be subsumed under the absence of a proper Islamic mindset. Stated differently, they arise due to a lack of an understanding of priorities in life, which stems from a lack of moral and spiritual values.
Muslims today face numerous challenges from within and from without which threaten their survival as a dynamic community.
These challenges can be categorized as spiritual, moral, intellectual, social and political.
However, none of these challenges, in my view, compare to the breakdown of family life.
