The entire article completely ignores what Islam says about marriage and sacred the institution/relationship is. It also defines marriage within a narrow scope without any horizon. In today’s Arab World many women are highly educated, highly successful in their careers and also highly successful as wives/married women. I would not ask any young girl that question & if I had to compare her to a bride it would be in the sensing of a complement i.e. being beautiful as women tend to appear at their finest when getting married.
