READ DISCLAIMER BEFORE PROCEEDING
- 1 2 - CONCLUSION
IN THE PRECEDING pages, an
attempt was made to shed light on issues concerning the sexual relationship of
a husband and wife in light of the Qur'an, Prophetic statements and texts of
both classical and contemporary scholars. It has not been easy to discuss such
a delicate topic in an open and frank manner, given the nature of the topic and
given the natural bashfulness of a human being.
However, upon seeing many of
our classical and contemporary scholars not only discussing these issues but
explaining the finer details of it too, I embarked on this journey keeping in
mind the statement of Allah Most High, "Surely, Allah is not shy of
[expounding] the truth" and keeping in mind the statement of the Tabi'i,
Mujahid, "Sacred knowledge is not gained by a shy or an arrogant
person". I felt it was of paramount importance that Muslims seek Islamic
knowledge relating to all areas of their lives, and that they do not shy away
from certain aspects of it because of cultural taboos or constraints.
I hope I have gone some way
towards achieving what I had set out to do. I pray this work is a source of
much benefit for married couples, Insha 'Allah. I ask Allah Most High to
make it purely for His sake, and that He forgive me for any mistakes that may have
been committed, Amin Ya Rabb al-'Alamin.
