Waseem - I think most would still marry, but much, much later in life. It would probably look very much like present day mainstream society w/o religious / cultural constraints to having multiple partners along one's journey in life.

Even casual relationships though, can get people attached that didn't expect to. Attached people naturally crave exclusivitity. It's rooted very much in us anthropologically. One can be jealous outside of marriage too.

So true love birds will still wed, eventually. Lots of people who didn't make the cut for Mr/Mrs Right and got into something as someone else's stop-gap measure would feel used.

I think one key reason that getting married is fundamental in Islam is because if you marry, then there are less chances that you will have sex outside of marriage. So I guess marriage serves 2 main purposes in Islam: procreating, and avoiding fornication. Interesting.

that is the worst motivation ever and half the reason you see so much divorce.

F786 - people are not compelled to marry to fulfill their deen. they are compelled to marry because it is a societal expectation and they are afraid they will end up alone.

I wouldn't mind being single for the rest of my life if Islam "allowed" women to have children out of wedlock. Having children someday is of importance to me. Having a man in my life isn't that important. Sometimes having a man in my life is just a big pain in the arse.

Aasmaan: ummm, because its part of our deen. It's fulfilling half of our religion. That's why it's a big deal. We should marry because it's an act of pleasing Allah.

why are people always so stressed aout about getting married?..is there something wrong with being a complete person on your own? If you want kids, adopt them..this whole concept of marriage and the desperate menatlity that comes with it is beyond me.. ;o(
