MUHAMMAD’S TEACHINGS TO MANKIND
“ The Prophet, peace and blessings of God be upon him, said, "Aliy! three [things] you should not delay: the prayer when it is due, the funeral [prayer] when it (the enshrouded body) arrives, and [the marriage of] a single woman when you find her a suitable match(1)." Footnotes: (1) A suitable husband: i.e. a man who is similar in religion, freedom, righteousness, and family background and who is able to support his family. ”
