Re: 18 and marriage?
Except people nowadays are far less mature than even 30 years ago. Islam advocates early marriage but that was at a time when you were married and popping out kids in your teens because you didn’t live past 50. Things have changed and I feel like people want to get married early just so they can have sex. It’s tough though, people are marrying later, studying longer, all the while your body is telling you to get it on!
Just make sure your brother is not just getting married because he wants to be able to have sex. Also, maybe it’s just my thinking, but I feel like being fully devoted to any one kind of thinking (Islamic or otherwise) and not being open to others leaves one very susceptible and this feels like the first step towards going all mullah and terrorist. I’m sorry if I offend anyone with that comment but people who I’ve personally met who are that devoted to Islam, are very jahil and mullah like.
Lol true. If I think about how much I’ve grown since 18 (and I’m not even that old, in my 20s) I feel like I’m a different person.
