A Root Cause of Problems
The shaikh, Dr. Muḥammad ibn Ghālib Al-ʿUmarī, may Allāh protect him, said:
A lot of marital disagreements, or the bulk of disagreements among families and within societies, have their root cause in the failure to make a distinction between rights and obligations.
One of us seeks his rights while neglecting the obligations upon him; a problem then arises because of that, [things becoming unclear], which will not be resolved except by understanding that [distinction].

كثير من الخلافات الزوجية أو عموم الخلافات الأسرية والاجتماعية يعود سببها إلى عدم التمييز بين الحقوق والواجبات، يطلب الواحد منا حقوقه ويهمل الواجبات التي عليه، فينشأ بذلك إشكال لا يحل إلا بفقه ذلك.
