Causes of the Proliferation of Divorce and Guidance for the Youth

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, this questioner says: I read a lot, Honorable Shaykh, about the prevalence of divorce among some of the young people in our present time. Why has divorce become so common, and what is the guidance for newly married young people?

Answer:
Divorce is serious and entails great harms that result from it. It was reported from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that he said: . The harms that result from it include the disintegration of the family, the separation of the spouses, and other such harms. Divorce is common among people due to ignorance, specifically due to ignorance and laxity. Also, Satan causes them to fall into these matters because he desires evil for them and wants to separate the spouses; thus, Satan incites them to divorce. Also, the cause is the anger that arises in a person, causing him to rush into divorce or something similar. Ignorance is the cause, so a person must guard his tongue and be cautious with the word for divorce or the term for divorce except when there is a need. Yes.
