Abstract:
The objective
of this project is to look at
how
total marriage is conducted among the
Muslims
in
Plateau State
with the view of identifying the
various
problems that are associated
with it and their prospects.
The institution of marriage is the foundation of all civilized nations and communities of
the world. That is why all religions and
legal
systems have tried as much as possible to regulate
the conduct of marriage as well as its dissolution among its members.
In
Islam
marriage is seen as a sacred contract which a
Muslim
enters into, unless if there
are special reasons. Why he should not. Both
Glorious
Qur’an
and the
Sunnah
of
Prophet
Muhammad (SAW) provided basis for
Muslims
conduct of marriage.
