 It's important that individuals are allowed to be their individual selves within the context of marriage so as to be fulfilled. For me to have fulfillment in my life, I need to be able to participate and do and be active in what I like doing. And of course, my wife is the same. But it's also important that we don't get lost in those two different worlds and that there is a common ground. There was a survey that was done a few years ago called the American Muslim Marital Quality Survey and they found the five biggest problems between marital couples. One of them was that two people have differing interests and differing interests can split people apart because your interest is what you spend quality time participating in. And quality time is time that's very valuable to me and if our quality time is spent in two different worlds and we never connect and there's no mutual time that we enjoy doing activities, we enjoy participating in something together, then that's a cause for division where you will slowly and emotionally divide from one another and that's dangerous for a relationship.
