Muslims Worldwide Accept Halal Dating

By Cynthia Sullivan


Halal is an important Islamic principle. It is widely mentioned in the Koran. Without Halal, there is no Islam. Actually, Islam is based around a set of rules that must be followed by Muslims. A religion that does not have rules is dead. It defeats itself. There is no way that a person can be religious and fail to follow religious rules. These rules were established for a reason: so that believers could lead a holy and righteous life. Halal dating is a set of old age rules that offer guidance on how a believer should date.

Halal does not only apply to food. It also refers to the general lifestyle of a Muslim. There is a lifestyle that is considered as Haram. That is because it goes against the teachings of Islam. There are also foods that are Haram. Pork is Haram. A believer must not eat pork. He needs to eat food that has been prepared properly.

Islamic dating should involve the family. Actually, the family should not be excluded. In Islam, family serves a vital role. Life starts with the family and ends with the family. The family can be the nucleus family. If the nucleus family is lacking, the extended family will serve as family. The family is the basic unit of an Islamic society.

Islamic marriage is the best marriage for a Muslim. This marriage will be presided over by a religious person. There will also be people in attendance. Islamic marriages are practiced all over the Islamic world. They are common in Shia as well as Sunni communities. In Iran, Saudi Arabia, and Pakistan, among other countries, they are widely practiced.

Sex before marriage is Haram. Having sex out of the marriage bed is also Haram. Infidelity is not tolerated in Islam as well as in the other major religions of the world. The marriage bed should be kept holy. Two people who are dating need to abstain from sex until they are married. Virginity is highly recommended in Islam.

Islamic dating needs to start with mutual attraction. It should be based on shared love. A husband needs to love his wife and vice versa. A relationship without love is simply dead. There is no need to continue in a relationship that lacks love. Actually, love should be the beginning and end of everything in a true Islamic marriage.

The main goal of Halal is to prevent a culture of joking. Marriage is not something to joke with. It is a lifetime commitment. Thus, it should be approached with care and caution. Marriage is a very serious institution in the religion of Islam. People should only marry if there are compatible and understand the seriousness of marriage.

Halal does not permit a single man and woman to be alone together. That will lead to temptation and temptation will lead to sin. A group date is highly recommended instead of an individual date. In a group date, every believer will watch over another believer. There must be a chaperone during the mingling process. This will be an older and mature member of the family who is married.
