Yasmin Mogahed – Love, Marriage, Selecting your Life partner and Etiquette in Islam

About this lecture

In this lecture, Yasmin Mogahed explores the Islamic understanding of love — distinguishing true, healthy love from unhealthy attachment and addiction. She explains how love for the sake of Allah (*hubb fillah*) provides a stable, lasting foundation for relationships, while desire-based love is fleeting and destructive, and offers practical guidance on choosing a spouse, performing *istikharah*, and detaching from unhealthy emotional dependencies.
