Supplication For Newlyweds

عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا رَفَّأَ إِنْسَانًا قَالَ بَارَكَ اللَّهُ لَكَ وَبَارَكَ عَلَيْكَ وَجَمَعَ بَيْنَكُمَا عَلَى خَيْرٍ

Abu Hurairah narrated:

 

When supplicating for newlyweds, the Prophet (pbuh) would say: 

بَارَكَ اللَّهُ لَكَ وَبَارَكَ عَلَيْكَ وَجَمَعَ بَيْنَكُمَا عَلَى خَيْرٍ

"May Allah bless you, and send blessings upon you, and bring goodness between you."

Lessons:

1. When someone acquires a certain goodness, we are encouraged to congratulate the person and pray that the goodness is blessed

2. When someone is married, it is Sunnah for us to celebrate the individual and the spouse by wishing

بَارَكَ اللَّهُ لَكَ وَبَارَكَ عَلَيْكَ وَجَمَعَ بَيْنَكُمَا عَلَى خَيْرٍ

"BAARAKALLAHU LAKA WABAARAKA ALAIKA WA JAMA'A BAINAKUMA ALA KHAIRIN"

"May Allah bless you and send blessings upon you, and bring goodness between you"

Let’s recite this supplication when congratulating newlywed couples at marriage functions.
