Marriage is One of Allah’s Laws

Allah (subhaanahu wa ta’aala) created our world and the laws that govern IT. Among Allah’s laws is that we need food to survive, air to breathe, rain for vegetation, and so on.
One of Allah’s important laws is that things are created in pairs, and from these pairs, reproduction occurs, Allah says:
“We have created all things in pairs, that perhaps you may remember.”
(Qur’aan 51: 49)
This applies to human beings who are made of male-female pairs as well. Humankind started with our father, Adam, and our mother, Hawwa (Eve). From that pair, Allah (subhaanahu wa ta’aala) created all of the other people, as He says:
“O people! Revere your Lord who has created you from a single soul, created from it its mate, and dispersed from both of them many men and women.”
(Qur’aan 4: 1)
And He says:
O people! We have created you from one male and one female, and have made you nations and tribes so as to know one another. The noblest among you in the sight of Allah is the most pious. Verily, Allah is All-Knowing and All-Aware.”
(Qur’aan. 49: 13)
This continues to be the way of reproduction for humans, as Allah says:

“Allah has given you spouses from yourselves, and has given you, from your spouses, children and grandchildren, and has provided you with good things for your sustenance.”
(Qur’aan 16: 72)
