Islamic marriage, or *Nikah*, is a sacred union based on mutual consent, respect and commitment. It establishes rights and responsibilities between the spouses and is part of a spiritual process to build a life together according to the principles of Islam.
Several verses in the Quran emphasize the importance and wisdom of marriage in Islam:
Surah AR-RUM verse 21
And among His signs is that He created for you from yourselves mates that you may dwell in peace with them, and He placed between you affection and kindness. In that are signs for people who reflect.
Surah Ar-RA'D verse 38
Surah AN-NOUR verse 32
