Marriage in Islam -Workshop attended

The following notes are based on the second of the two day Workshop held in Nov 2010 by Sobia Kamaladdin (wife of Shaykh Kamaluddin Ahmed) on the topic: Marriage in Islam. The workshop was held in Karachi and was addressed only to women. These notes are not transcript of the workshop but simply based on my understanding of the topic.

The workshop was divided into three broad sections:

1. Conflict Resolution Guidelines
2. How to win the heart of your husband
3. Common Marital problems
