His Eminence Sheikh Ali ibn Abdur-Rahman al-Huthifi, may Allah preserve him, delivered the Friday khutbah entitled, “Marriage: Its Virtues, Benefits, and Rulings”, in which he talked about marriage, showing its virtues and most important benefits for the individual and for society as a whole. He also cast light on some of the rulings related to marriage as stated in the Noble Qur’an and the purified Sunnah, including, among other things,moderation in the amount of the dowry paid to the bride (mahr) and the desirability of early marriage if its requirements are fulfilled.
