This book safeguards the institution of marriage, the most important and yet so delicate of all the human relationships in the light of Islam and the sayings of our Prophet (PBUH) hadith which is so dear to us and leads our path towards not only our worldly happiness but also towards your ultimate life. This book is comprehensive formula to lead a happy married life if we really act upon what is said in this. Language is so comprehensive and argument is so simple that is understandable for anybody who can read simple plain English.

Writer/Physician

“Together Forever" is an interesting compilation and collection of "advice" and "wisdom. There are relevant quotations from Qur'an as well……….. A book on good moral behavior and relationship - benefits those who not only read and absorb it but also act upon it. For 'values' without becoming a way of life are useless Although, the book concentrates on the institution of marriage, it prescribes the ingredients if not the formula of a good life. …….. The material has been gathered with effort and certainly would assist in learning curve of any human being. ……

Lawyer/Compare, PTV)

.……..I think that this is a very important book, because it guides you to the path of a real and righteous life. I really wish that every man and woman thoroughly goes over this book before and after getting married. By writing such a book, Faiez Seyal has done a very good and praiseworthy job as our new generation is in dire need of such books and I congratulate him for this.

Novelist/Fiction writer/Columnist/Patriot

……..I highly recommend Together Forever, as it is a blessing for the Pakistani society and a must-read for every single household. If it were in my hands, I would make sure that all to-be-wed couples read it for an entire month before they tied the knot. It should be given away in the dowry and it should become so common, that no wedding takes place without it. If we sincerely want to save the values and family life of the Pakistani society than it is vital to come out with this book's translation, and come out with it soon!……. Pakistan needs a thinker, philosopher, sociologist and a spiritually enlightened scholar like Faiez Seyal.

Playwriter/Teacher

…Mr. Faiez H. Seyal produced yet another useful and informative study comprising different aspects of marriage. It certainly can be very helpful, providing advice to modern couples regarding relationship blend with the teaching of Islam. No doubt it is worthy and valuable contribution to build a healthy marriage with ever-increasing love, peace which is the biggest requirement of mankind at present.

Editor, Weekly Family Magazine

Wow, what a compilation! If only we could all understand these nice and simple things right from Day One, marital life would be a bliss. A must read for youngsters also for it's all about the necessities of a happy married life. It's a guide to prepare them for the change in their lives, which they rarely ever get from elsewhere. For others, it is never too late for both parties to try.

HR Manager, Packages Ltd./Housewife

We lack knowledge about our religion's teachings, despite the fact that we are Muslims and also belong to an Islamic society. This is the main reason behind the many social problems that we have ,including having women that are badly treated by their inlaws .I think "Together Forever" is a book that should be read by the elders of the household as well, so that they alter their expectations from their daughter-in-laws . This will not only make the girl's life easier, but even the mother-in-law will heave a sigh of relief from the constant tussle between the two! If we want a society free from all evils, then we must definitely have many more of such books.

Housewife/Working Women

“Together Forever" has been formulated in a brilliant way to get the message across to the young generation of our society. What I like best about this book is the fact that every point towards marital bliss is supported by some Qur'anic verse or Ahadith - The Ace Team really does know how to teach Islamic values to a society that is full of misconceptions-well done.

A brilliant piece of work integrating the positive beliefs of Islam which are so often overlooked with the positive thinking of behavioral psychology. …author has drawn from personal experiences as well as given excellent anecdotes and metaphors to explain the theories, which are predominant in modern day psychology.

“The book has such a convincing power that flaws of our mental make-up prop up and insist upon us to correct our outlook towards life.”

Renal Physician

Everyone must read this book that bridges the gap between the ideal world and the real world we suppose to live. Read it and use it.

At a time when we are fast becoming mannerless, Seyal tries admirably well in giving us our manners back. And in doing so, he enriches our identity by re-linking manners to the solid tradition of Islam.

Institute of Policy Studies

An excellent and certainly the most complete book on this subject..…the material is definitely of use in all cultural backgrounds. …is a “must have” and “must practice” for Muslim families.

Director Administration, National Commission on Human Development

The book discusses the very important yet oft ignored sphere of Islamic philosophy; Manners. I believe, that the author has rendered a great service for Islam by communicating these Islamic teachings in a self-contained book…..

Director Marketing, Citibank

It covers all aspects of mannerism comprising the life from birth to grave. It is a must for every family. Parents must ensure that their children read, understand and practice it in its true spirit.

General Manager, Fauji Card Project

Seyal could not have chosen a better time to bring out a book about good manners which actually concerns the civilities of day to day life specially when the western media is full of inhuman & barbarous acts attributed to a section of Muslim Ummah.

TV Artist, Director and Writer

What we as Muslims have forgotten in the wake of foreign mannerism is well refreshed. If it was upto me, I would introduce this book as a part of syllabus in the schools and also monitor its practice.

Country Consumer Bank Head, ABN-AMRO Bank

….. It bases itself on guiding principals of Islam, which without any doubt will remain the most valid source for a resolved beautiful and harmonious existence forever if understood and interpreted in a balanced manner hence it is a very useful reading.
