What do the terms 'sakinah', 'mawaddah', and 'warahmah' mean in the context of marriage?

'Sakinah' refers to peace and tranquility in the family, 'mawaddah' means love and affection between spouses, and 'warahmah' refers to the mercy and compassion that extend to children, especially in raising righteous ones. Together, they describe an ideal, religiously guided family life.
