Mufti Ismail Menk tweeted on these 2 subjects and I think I should share them with all of you.
On naming our children:
When naming our children we should ensure a beautiful meaning rather than an exotic sounding name void of meaning. Some parents ignorantly choose names that have a bad meaning just because it sounds good. The child then grows up being called a bad name. To avoid distortions, it is wise to choose a name that will be pronounced with ease by the community the child will grow up in.
On marriage:
A growing number of young do not realize that marriage is not a perpetual honeymoon. Marriage is a great sacrifice and a major adjustment is required for it to be blissful. What is the point of looking good together according to the world when the whole house is in disarray. In marriage, humble beginnings result in more appreciated relationships that last longer in most cases.
Something for us to ponder.
Till then.
