Happily Ever After: Communicating Love in your Islamic Marriage

Sisters only!

Course summary: As a society we often tout the merits of marriage and strongly encourage our youth to “complete half their deen.” However, once the wedding is over, couples are sometimes left to flounder on their own with little or no guidance. Unfortunately, many of our Muslim marriages today are ending in divorce because of faulty expectations and a lack of support, preparation, understanding, care and mercy along with poor communication skills. Learn how to communicate better in all your relationships to strengthen one of the most important relationships you will build in this duniya. Whether currently married, single, divorced, or occupying any other marital or premarital space, this seminar provides a platform for learning the ins and outs of how to communicate love to build stronger Muslim marriages.
