Not Everyone Marries: Lessons from Imam Nawawi’s Life

Not Everyone Marries: Lessons from Imam Nawawi’s Life

Imam Nawawi, one of the greatest scholars of Islam, is known to have never married. He spent all his time studying, teaching, and writing books that Muslims still benefit from today. It’s not that he didn’t value marriage—he just felt that his purpose was to serve the religion through knowledge, and he didn’t want anything to distract him from that. 

His life shows us that while marriage is a beautiful part of Islam, it’s not a must for everyone. Some people are given a different path to focus on, and that’s okay too.
