Several examples of the importance of marriage within the Islamic framework are presented, such as the way Islam facilitated marriage, reducing the requirements of formality and easing the economic burden; the way the Prophet Muhammad encouraged Muslims to marryeven those who had rejected marriage and family to devote themselves to God; the manner in which the Prophet attempted to resolve conflicts within families to ensure the survival of peace within the family; and the way the Qur'an requires assistance for those who wish to marry but cannot due to economic or moral obstacles.
