Re: Imam Intervention
Quran and sunnah is the book of marital counseling, human behavior and human psychology.
Quran and sunnah did not contain clinical research on human behavior and psychy. They are books for moral guidance and personal well being. Yes there is valuable advice to the extent how a husband and how a wife should behave and treat each other and also what are the rights and responsibilities of spouses . But if people are not following those guidelines and breaking all the religious , marital , parental , obligations Quran and Sunnah and Imam cannot help you. What if husband and wife are in deep depression and that depression is causing all the marital problems then you need Prozac, Abilify , Zoloft and/or marital counseling in addition to ait a karima ka khatam.
Do not get me wrong . I believe in the power of duaa. I believe in divine intervention , but I am a practical man too and seek practical solutions for real world problems.
Do not look for things in Quran and sunnah which are not there. Quran and sunnah does not provide a formula for Muslim ummah to make a nuclear bomb you need scientists ,engineers , physicists and books of science and technology to achieve that task. You need Dr. Qadeer not a Imam to tell you what what Quran and Sunnah has to offer in this matter.
