Marriage is desirable, and it may become obligatory due to a specific circumstance. It is a great benefit and a Prophetic . The problems within it are few compared to its benefits, and they are part of the nature of life. Supplicating for failure in marriage is blameworthy because it is a supplication for something Allah dislikes, and there is a fear that it may be an transgression in supplication. It is better to supplicate for success in what pleases Allah and for the facilitation of good, and to supplicate for a righteous spouse and to avoid marital problems, and to abandon this disliked supplication.
