Muslim Marriages in the USA experience a 37% divorce; more than 50% are dysfunctional; and 80% develop serious problems within the first 5 years that lead to breakups. In the process a lot of human resources are wasted, children’s development is stunted and there is an unhappiness that envelopes our community. The problems are compounded by cultural clashes with the western society we live in and our inability to reconcile them both. This situation can be reversed if persons thinking of marriage, parents and newlyweds are given the right perspectives.
