What is Love?; Sustaining a Marriage; Appropriate Behavior - Maulana Syed Muhammad Rizvi

- Family Day holidy in the province of Ontario, Canada

- What is the basis of a family in Islam?

- Marriages are sustained by love between a couple. What is 'love' and how does it play a role?

- Quoting an article by a neurology professor regarding the concept of 'falling in love'

- The Islamic perspective, the main criteria for marriage consists of 2 items

- What does Islam say regarding love in a marriage?

- Differentiating between internal feelings of love, and it's outward expression; and the sharia view on both aspects

- Various verses of the Qur'an talking about a 'spiritual disease', regarding inappropriate behaviour stemming from harmful internal thoughts

- In the days of the #MeToo movement, it should be easier to understand the emphasis that Islam has in maintaining the boundaries of decency between opposite genders.

- Islam has talked about these issues clearly; it doesn’t wait until a high-profile case like that of Hollywood producer, Harvey Weinstein, reaches to the court.

- Formal, business-type, interaction between opposite genders with aura of decency is accepted but any kind of social interaction is not allowed.

- The prohibition in Islam starts from physical contact: shaking hands. The message is simple: no touching.

- Touching upon Qur'anic verses mentioning the plots of the Shaitan to make us stray

- Islamic emphasis upon controlling your eyes and gaze
