This workshop is sponsored & hosted by (IHW) every 6 months, to help provide constructive stronger marriages in our community.
Our mission is “stronger marriages build stronger families, stronger families build stronger communities”.
Our aim is to 1) bring together those that are ready for a life long commitment and 2) to bring those that are already in a life long commitment, prepare them with specialized skills & Knowledge required to evolve.
This one day workshop under the guidance of Hajjah Sabah Beydoun focused on how to work together and build a stronger marriage through developing a variety of essential qualities/traits & active cooperative/participation skills that ensure a successful happy relationship along with the motivation necessary to accomplish.
“Evolving into the right person”
Marriage is not like a house you walk into, they have to be built from day one and all the way to the end of your life……..a construction of knowledge and love.
Islam teaches us that through a marriage ceremony one is committed to making the effort to move from the state of “I” to the state of “WE” therefore it views both partners as a team instead of two separate individuals.
After the warm welcome, in order for us to get to know each other better participants were asked to introduce themselves using categories on the wall chart, they filled when they arrived.
Participants took a short break for prayer and lunch.
The main topic powerpoint was presented titled (Creating a Great Relationship). Followed by a short video on how to manage conflict since conflict is inevitable, but how to manage conflict is in one's own hands. After the video participants were asked to answer questions given to them about the video as they were divided into groups and asked to discuss their answers with their group.
We received a lot of positive and constructive feedback- please inbox us your contact information to be included in the next meetings!
