I feel mutual understanding from both ends is one of the key ingredients to a successful marriage. Apart from this love, clear communication, and honesty are vital as well

A Good Marriage

After being happily married for 28 years, Dr. Phil shares some of his thoughts about what makes a marriage work.

The quality of a relationship is a function of the extent to which it is built on a solid underlying friendship and meets the needs of the two people involved.

You get what you give. When you give better, you get better.

If you put your relationship in a win/lose situation, it will be a lose/lose situation.

Forget whether you're right or wrong. The question is: Is what you're doing working or not working?

There is no right or wrong way to fix a relationship. Find your own way that works. But recognize when it's not working and be honest when it needs fixing.

Falling in love is not the same thing as being in love. Embrace the change and know that it takes work.

You don't fix things by fixing your partner.

Intimacy is so important because it is when we let someone else enter our private world.

You don't necessarily solve problems. You learn how to manage them.

Communicate. Make sure your sentences have verbs. Remember that only 7 percent of communication is verbal. Actions and non-verbal communication speak much louder.

You teach people how to treat you. You can renegotiate the rules.

I overlooked this point, it is to ask Allah for guidance through the challenges and to be patient.

Watch the movie, 50 first dates.... if we can be as loving & caring as we were in the beginning, then we will make it with Allah's blessings.

husbands: please dun take things for granted, pls dun show ur bad habits to ur wife like burping loudly, farting...keep it to ur self....

wives: pls dun get fat! Keep the nagging and bad habits to ur self.

treat each other with respect like if it was the first date.
