Is Islamic marriage like Christian marriage?

A Muslim marriage is not a `sacrament', but a simple, legal agreement include conditions. Marriage customs thus vary widely from country to country. As a result, divorce is not common., although it is not forbidden as a last resort. According to Islam, no Muslim girl can be forced to marry against her will: her parents will simply suggest young men they think may be suitable.
