Fiqh of Marriage Course

Before the proposal, at the Nikah, in the first year together, and through every challenge that follows, Islam gives clear guidance for each stage of married life. Yet many couples enter marriage knowing little more than the ceremony.

Kalamullah's Fiqh of marriage course walks you through every stage in order: choosing a spouse, the engagement, the contract and its conditions, the rights of husband and wife, resolving conflict, and the rulings of divorce and Iddah, each explained with its evidence.

HOW IT WORKS

What the Fiqh of Marriage Course Covers

The course begins with the Islamic guidance on choosing a spouse and the rulings of Khitbah and engagement. Students then study the pillars and conditions of the Nikah contract, including the Wali, witnesses, and Mahr, followed by the mutual rights and responsibilities of husband and wife, financial support, and the etiquette of married life.

The course closes with the Quranic steps for resolving conflict and the rulings of Talaq, Khul’, and Iddah. Rulings are taught according to the madhhab the student follows, with other scholarly views noted where they differ.

Before Marriage: Choosing a spouse, Istikharah, the rulings of engagement, and what makes a Nikah contract valid.
Within Marriage: The rights of the husband, the wife, and those they share, along with financial support and the etiquette of married life.
When Difficulties Arise: The Quranic steps for resolving conflict, and the rulings of Talaq, Khul’, and Iddah.

Progress milestone

1. Teachers Trained in Fiqh

Every teacher assigned to Kalamullah’s Fiqh of Marriage Course has formal study in Fiqh from a recognized institution. Credentials are verified before assignment.

Each ruling, from the conditions of the Nikah to the rules of Iddah, is taught with its evidence from the Quran and Sunnah, with the main scholarly views noted where they differ.

3. Private, Discreet One-on-One Lessons

Every lesson is private, so students can ask about sensitive matters openly. Teachers answer with care and refer personal cases that need a formal ruling to qualified scholars.

4. Female Teachers for Sisters

Kalamullah provides qualified female Fiqh teachers for sisters, and rulings related to intimacy and matters specific to women or men are taught by a teacher of the same gender. The preference is honored throughout the course.

5. Practical Guidance for Real Marriages

The course connects rulings to everyday married life: finances, family relations, communication, and resolving disagreements in the way the Quran describes.

COURSE STRUCTURE

How the Fiqh of Marriage Course Is Structured

The course follows the stages of marriage in order, from choosing a spouse to the rulings that apply if a marriage ends.

1. Choosing a Spouse and Engagement:

Students study the Islamic guidance on choosing a spouse, the role of family, the rulings of Khitbah, and what is and is not permitted during engagement.

The teacher also discusses Istikharah and consulting others before making a decision.

2. The Nikah Contract:

The teacher covers the pillars and conditions of a valid Nikah, including the Wali, witnesses, offer and acceptance, and the Mahr, with the views of the main schools where they differ.

By the end of this unit, students can explain what makes a marriage contract valid.

3. Rights and Responsibilities of Husband and Wife:

Students study the rights of the wife, the rights of the husband, and the rights they share, including financial support, kind treatment, and the etiquette of married life.

Each right is taught with its evidence and linked to practical situations.

4. Resolving Conflict in Marriage:

The teacher explains the Quranic steps for resolving disagreement between spouses, including communication, patience, and involving arbiters from both families.

Students learn how these steps protect the marriage before separation is ever considered. Islam forbids harm between spouses, and any student facing harm at home is directed to appropriate help immediately

5. Divorce, Khul', and Iddah:

The final unit covers the rulings of Talaq, Khul', and Iddah, and the rights of both spouses and children after separation.

At the close of this unit, students understand the Fiqh of marriage from beginning to end and can continue into Kalamullah's Comparative Fiqh Course.
