O brother: we all want to betroth that bride; why then do we waste her by a temporary pleasure or the amusement of this worldly lif e?

All t he prais e s and t hanks be t o Allah, t he Lord of mankind, jinn and all t hat e xis t s , and pe ace and ble s s ings of Allah be upon t he Me s s e nge r of Allah, our Prophe t Muhammad, and upon all his family and companions .
