Their was a beautiful woman, who wanted to get married, but she wanted to get a very pious husband, so she said that she'll marry the man who fasts for the whole year and stays awake and worships Allah all throughout the night.
She was a very beautiful woman, and a lot of suitors wanted to marry her, but they knew they couldn't fulfill the conditions she set. Until this one man stepped forward and said he could fulfill them. So the Imaam got both of them married.
After marriage, the wife observed that the husband did not fast, nor did he stay awake in the night worshipping Allah SWT.
She decided to wait and watch for a few weeks to see if their were any changes. Their weren't, so she filed a complaint and asked for a divorce.
They were both taken to the judge, and the judge asked, "What were the conditions of the marriage?"
The man replied, "They were for me to fast for the whole year and to worship Allah SWT all through the night."
The judge asked, "Did you fulfill them?"
The man calmly answered, "....YES."
The judge replied, "You are lying, your wife has said that you haven't, that's why she's asking for a divorce."
But the man insisted that he had fulfilled the conditions, so the judge asked, "How did you fast the whole year?"
The man answered, "I fasted for the whole month of Ramadan, then kept another six fasts in the month of Shawwal, and according to Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W.S), keeping all of the fasts of Ramadan and then keeping six fasts in the month of Shawwal, is as if you have fasted for the whole year."
The judge remained silent, he couldn't give a reply saying the man was wrong, then he asked, "How did you stay awake all night and worship Allah SWT, when your wife saw you sleeping?"
The judge thought the man wouldn't be able to answer this one, but the man, cool as a cucumber answered, "I prayed Salatul Isha with Jamaat (congregation), the next day prayed Salatul Fajr with Jamaat (congregation), and according to Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W.S), the one who prays Salatul Isha and Salatul Fajr with Jamaat (congregation), it is as if he had stayed up all night worshipping Allah SWT."
The judge sat their looking at the man; the final verdict was about to be delivered...
He said to the man and his wife, "...go, just go, their is nothing wrong with this marriage"...A.n- Assalamu Alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuhu, I have so many topics in my mind that I just want to write it all as soon as possible In shaa Allah. Hope you learn from this one like I did.
