Marriage is a contract as well as a sacrament; therefore, it encompasses both a sacred aspect and a lawful contract. The contract aspect arises from the mutual consent and agreement to cohabit, while the sacred dimension derives from its religious significance. A successful marriage thrives on qualities like tolerance, adjustment, and mutual respect. If either party is unwilling to live harmoniously with their partner, the relationship is unlikely to be a happy one. Prolonging such a relationship would only breed animosity and frustration between spouses. Hence, to preserve the sanctity of marriage, minimise unhappy unions, and prevent wasting precious years of their lives, it sometimes becomes necessary to dissolve such marriages by way of divorce.

Parental instigation refers to the influence or intervention that parents impose on their child's marriage, either directly or indirectly. This can manifest in various ways, such as offering unasked advice, criticizing the partner, or even attempting to interfere in personal decisions. While some level of parental guidance is natural, especially in cultures where family plays a central role, excessive or unwarranted interference can create tension in a marriage.
