Understanding Islamic Marriage Guidelines and Prohibitions
* It is forbidden for a husband and wife to speak to anyone else about the intimate details of their relationship. (Astaghfirullah- this is common this days)
* It is forbidden for a man to take any part of his wife's mahr without her consent, or to put pressure on her to give up her money.
* It is forbidden to remain celibate and never marry.
* To be castrated.
* To marry two sisters at the same time.
* To marry a woman and her paternal aunt or maternal aunt at the same time - regardless of which is married first - for fear of breaking the ties of kinship.
* For a man to marry his father's wife.
* It is forbidden to make deals in marriage, such as saying, "Marry your daughter or sister to me and I will give you my daughter or sister in marriage", because this exchange is wrongful oppression and is haraam.
* It is forbidden to enter into mut'ah (temporary) marriage, which is a marriage for a period of time agreed upon by both parties, after which the marriage is over.
* It is forbidden to marry except with a wali (guardian of the bride) and two witnesses.
* For a man to propose to a woman when his (Muslim) brother has already proposed, unless the first suitor gives up the idea or gives him permission.
* To make a clearly-stated offer of marriage to a woman who is in iddah because her husband has died, although it is acceptable to hint.
* It is forbidden to make any kind of offer of marriage at all to a woman who has been divorced (talaaq) once or twice (as she may still return to her husband).
* It is forbidden for a divorced woman whose divorce is still revocable to go out of her husband's house or to leave during her 'iddah.
* It is forbidden for a man to keep his divorced wife or to take her back when he does not care for her, because this will only prolong the pain for her and cause her anguish.
* It is forbidden for a divorced woman to conceal what Allah has created in her womb.
* It is forbidden to treat the matter of divorce lightly.
* It is forbidden for a woman to ask for the divorce of another, whether she is married or engaged, so that she can marry the man instead.
* It is forbidden to make a woman hate her husband or vice versa.
* The Prophet (ﷺ) forbade men to speak to women without their husbands' permission.
* It is forbidden for a woman to spend her husband's money without his permission.
* for a woman to forsake her husband's bed, because if she does this without a valid excuse, the angels will curse her.
* It is forbidden for a man to annoy a rebellious wife who has come back to obeying him.
* It is forbidden for a woman to let anyone into her husband's house without his permission, although his general permission is sufficient so long as the rules of sharee'ah are not broken.
* It is forbidden to refuse an invitation to a waleemah (wedding party) with no legitimate excuse.
* To wish a newly-married couple "bi'l-rafaa' wa'l-baneen" (wishing them happiness and many sons), because this is the greeting of Jaahiliyyah, and the people of Jaahiliyyah used to dislike daughters.
* It is forbidden for a man to have intercourse with a woman who is pregnant from another man.
* For a man to withdraw from his wife (coitus interrupts) without her permission.
* For a man to knock on the door and startle his family when returning at night from a journey - but if he has already told them what time he will arrive, there is nothing wrong with it.
* The practice of zihaar (a jaahili form of divorce in which a man said to his wife, "You are to me like my mother's back") is forbidden.
* It is forbidden for a man to show a preference for one of two wives, or to be unfair in dealing with his wives.
* It is forbidden to enter into nikaah al-tahleel, which is where a thrice-divorced woman (i.e., one who has received the third and final talaaq) gets married so that she can then be divorced by the second husband and be free to remarry her first husband.
Wallahualam.
