Why am I required to do Premarital Counseling?
Why is Counseling useful?
- PMC seeks to enable the bride-to-be and groom-to-be to have a strong, healthy relationship, assisting them to think about, and prepare the foundation, for a stable and mutually satisfying marriage.
- We want to help you understand and prepare for the challenges in your relationship.
- PMC will help to prepare you for marriage and not just for the wedding day.
- It is meant to slow you down and help you think about the relationship.
- Topics addressed in premarital counseling are intended to highlight ways to handle the relationship according to Islamic teachings, in order to enhance the marriage.
- The discussion will help you do your emotional homework now before you marry rather than dumping a lot of unvoiced expectation on your partner after the marriage.
