Description peace be to you brothers and sisters ^_^



I hope you're all okay

I'm really having a hard time these days when drawing , it's so rare to draw something that can actually have my satisfaction
but I felt that I had to post something (I missed the "submit art" button )

this is half traditional .. well let's say most of it is traditional (watercolors) and I added final retouches digitally (some light effects )

I hope it is good enough ( I know it's not ) ..
well .. critiques are always welcomed ^_^



This is an article by : Dr. Sherif Mohammed

{By getting married you are not just getting a wife, you are getting your whole world. From now until the rest of your days your wife will be your partner, your companion, and your best friend.

She will share your moments, your days, and your years. She will share your joys and sorrows, your successes and failures, your dreams and your fears. When you are ill, she will take the best care of you; when you need help, she will do all she can for you;
The best description that I personally have ever read describing the closeness of the spouses to each other is the Qur'anic verse which says: "they are your garments and you are their garments" (Surah Al Baqarah 2:187).

Indeed, spouses are like garments to each other because they provide one another with the protection, the comfort, the cover, the support, and the adornment that garments provide to humans. Just imagine a journey in the winter of Alaska without garments! Our spouses provide us with the same level of comfort, protection, cover, and support in the journey of our lives on this earth as garments would do in the Alaskan journey.

The relationship between the spouses is the most amazing of all human relations: the amount of love and affection, intimacy and closeness, mercy and compassion, peace and tranquillity that fills the hearts of the spouses is simply inexplicable. Only our Almighty Allah in His Infinite Power, Boundless Mercy, and Great Wisdom can create and ingrain these amazing and blessed feelings in the hearts of the spouses. He says in the Qur'an, "And among His signs is this, that He created for you mates from among yourselves that you may dwell in tranquillity with them and He has put love and mercy between your hearts: verily in that are signs for those who reflect." (Surah Al Rum 30:21)

But Allah knows that the human heart is not a static entity, it is sometimes weak and at times dynamic. Feelings can and do change with time. Love may wither and fade away. The marital bond might weaken if not properly cared for. Continuous happiness requires constant giving from both sides. For the tree of marital love to remain alive and keep growing, the soil has to be sustained, maintained, watered and nurtured.
The Prophet -peace be upon him- said "one would be rewarded for anything that he does seeking the pleasure of Allah even the food that he puts in the mouth of his wife."

Never underestimate the importance of seemingly little things as putting food in your wife's mouth, opening the car's door for her, etc. Remember that the Prophet -peace be upon him- used to extend his knee to his wife to assist her up to ride the camel.
Always try your best to be good to your wife by words and by deeds. Talk to her, smile to her, seek her advice, ask for her opinion, spend quality time with her and always remember that the Prophet -peace be upon him- said "the best of you are those who are best to their wives."}




Salam (peace) ^__^

The colors used here, the anatomy, the lighting, etc. It's all so very beautiful! The piece as a whole is very lovely. I am not Islamic, however I can tell you put your heart into this post. And something about that just makes me smile. 
Again, this is really lovely.

Thankyou for sharing this. I had a look in my Quran translation.
Thought you might be interested, in the translation by MAS Abdel Haleem, it is written this way;

Another of His signs is that He created spouses from among yourselves for you to live with in tranquillity;He ordained love and kindness between you. There truly are signs in this for those who reflect. {The Byzantines 30.21}

you're welcome .. and hanks for your kind comment

as for the translation .. actually there's many translations and I just choose the one that I felt that it fits more .. since I usually read Qur'an in arabic ..
thanks again ^^
