Abstract
This paper describes the results of an exploratory investigation into American
Muslims’ marital quality. Respondents were 296 young, well- educated, long- term
North American residents, most of whom lived near a major metropolitan hub.
They reported generally healthy and satisfying marriages, though women reported
lower marital quality than men. Marital problems most commonly included issues
with
1. In- laws,
2. Family or friends,
3. Finances,
4. Differing interests, and conflicting attitudes
5. Sex.
