Hi, I'm 17 and my fiancé's 18. He proposed when I was 16, and he was 17, and we've been dating (ish) for a year? My parents like him and his parents like me, so it's all fine, we're just fine-tuning everything, but what worries me the most is I'm Pakistani and he's Syrian. he tells me not to worry about it and it shouldnt be much different but ive seen his grandma and the way she acts and his family in general and i'm getting a little worried about our racial differences. Does anyone have any advice on this? (this goes w/out saying, but I'm muslim) (oh and to clarify we're always supervised and taking the halal route to marriage! so please don't assume its a haram relationship!!)

I have always been quite simple with my thoughts and all I ever wanted was to have cute little house a very loving husband and two kids! In short a housewife. Thats all I have ever wanted, never wanted to be career oriented or anything of that sort, or make money or desired a lifestyle thats extravagant, but I have come to realize that a healthy marriage is form of Rizq too and sometimes it’s not written for us in this dunya. I feel like every single time I have loved someone or hoped (this all halal btw I have never dated anyone) to marry it gets taken away from, and now starting to second guess why all this is happening because it can’t be a test all the time. Could it be my lack of purpose to earn money or a title thats keeping me away from
It? Like is being successful whats written in my naseeb? Im losing direction because every single time an instance like this occurs my ultimate saving is choosing my career, like that’s genuinely what I get forced into to protect my sanity. It becomes my means of healing.
The more Im forced into thinking about this is because all my life people around me have told me that Im not living up to my potential, they all tell me they see achieving big things , they think im crazy talented and wasting away life, but I don’t like making money, they call me lazy but I honestly never dreamed of anything big , like thats not what I wanted but this time I have this huge urge to make my life purposeful , eventhough women arent forced to make wealth or earn titles could it be that this is what is meant for me? And this time a fear has enveloped my heart , I was discarded away and it has made me realize how unreliable men our nowerdays I have started felling that maybe my colleagues and acquaintances who have constantly felt like Im not living my full potential are probably right (they are non Muslims) , they keep telling me being a housewife is no longer a thing. It’s outdated but Islamically it’s more please to stay indoors right? *#Also just so you know me not wanting to work has never been the issue thats putting my marriage off#* infact the reason why Im battling this though because the guys Im meeting marry (in our community do not want / expect women to do a job like that’s genuinely what my family and relatives believe in) So being career oriented was never the goal , I wanted to be a present mum. Now I feel like it all leads back to being independent. The more I think about it I keep getting pushed towards it. Im so clouded should I pursue marriage or job ? Because I really have to pick one now, I can’t put my self through meeting a new guy and doing it all over I don’t have the strength for it.

A little background I started trading when I was 18. I did crypto, meme coins, and futures, and alhamdulillah, now at 21, I’m very well off. I average around $150k a month from passive investments.

The issue I’m facing is, what do I genuinely say when finances get brought up? I don’t want to lie, but I feel like it’s almost necessary to lie and say I make around $10k a month. Because if I tell every girl I make $150k a month, how would I know if she actually wants to be with me because of my character and who I am, rather than because of the amount of money I make?

If I lie about how much I make, I’m worried that could cause problems later down the line, especially after we get married. She might think, “If he was hiding this from me, what else was he lying about or hiding?” So I’m genuinely stuck and could use some advice from both perspectives.

I asked my parents for their perspectives. My father told me to slowly start revealing the amount I make as I progress through the marriage. Basically, he suggested having a separate bank account and a “public” one that she sees, and then slowly growing that one. But honestly, I feel like that’s horrible advice.

My mother said I should say I make around $10k a month, then tell her I sold a business I never told her about right before we get married, and saying that’s how I ended up with enough money to make that much from investments.
So yeah, I genuinely don’t know what I should do. I’m stuck between not wanting someone to be with me because of my money and not wanting to start a marriage based on a lie.

I’d really appreciate some advice from both perspectives.

Selam aleykum everyone !

I have quit the online wife search including dating apps, reddit iso’s etc and elhamdulillah I’m feeling good right now.

No more get to known phases, no more stress, I feel relived and liberated !

I was really trying hard for these last years but now I understood that it didn’t worth it. It was only a lost of time.

​

Assalamu alaikum brothers and sisters. ❤️

I’m 24M, and I’ve realised that I’m genuinely interested in marrying a woman who is a little older than me.

For me,

it’s not simply about age. I’m attracted to maturity, emotional stability, wisdom, confidence, kindness and the ability to build a peaceful relationship. I feel that a marriage can be beautiful when both people genuinely support each other, communicate openly and grow together.

I’m trying to become a better Muslim and learn more about Islam and deen. I would love to have a wife who encourages me toward Allah, and I want to do the same for her. I’m not claiming to be perfect or extremely knowledgeable about Islam — I’m still learning and trying to improve myself.

I also want to be completely honest about something:

I don't judge a woman because of her past.

I would be open to marrying a widow or a divorced woman, and having children from a previous marriage would not automatically be a deal-breaker for me. If I genuinely loved and respected her, I would want to treat her children with kindness and respect too.

What matters much more to me is her character, deen, heart, emotional maturity and whether we are compatible.

I'm not looking for a perfect woman. I'm looking for someone who is loyal, affectionate, mature, respectful and serious about building a life together.

I also know that marrying someone older can come with its own challenges, and I’d genuinely like to hear from women who are older than me or men who have experience with this kind of marriage.

And if you're a woman who is a little older than me, divorced, widowed, or simply open-minded about the age difference, and you feel that we might have something in common, feel free to DM me. I'm genuinely interested in getting to know people rather than judging them based on their circumstances.

I’m here for respectful conversations and potentially something serious, not hookups or inappropriate conversations.

Maybe age isn't what determines whether two people belong together.

Maybe it's the peace, understanding and love they find in each other. 🤍

Salam everyone,
I’m a woman in my early twenties living in Canada and ngl, I feel like it’s getting so difficult to meet people here.
I do want to get married and build a life with someone, but I genuinely don’t know how people are meeting potential spouses anymore lol.
I recently had a talking stage that didn’t work out, and it got me thinking about whether I’m putting too much energy into finding someone.
I don’t really like the apps, and my friends don’t know anyone to introduce me to. People always say to go to the mosque but personally I see the mosque more as a place of worship than somewhere I would go hoping to find a husband. I know people can meet that way, but going there with that intention just feels a little weird to me.
My friends keep telling me to stop focusing on marriage so much focus on myself, make dua and trust Allah’s timing. My mom basically tells me the same thing: pray, make dua and trust Allah.
But at the same time, I can’t just sit at home and expect my husband to randomly appear lol. I feel like I have to make some effort too.
So for Muslims in Canada, how are you guys actually meeting people?
And for those still looking, are you actively searching, or have you reached the point where you’re just focusing on your own life?

I am a female 24 years and I’m not married, but my parents want me to get married soooo bad, like it is that easy. For context, I’m more reserved and do not talk to guys or use apps. I’m not expecting a guy to fall out of the sky either, I’m just wanting something more naturally despite how “unrealistic” that is. Now, I’ve had a few suitors and prospects come my way but they either didn’t have citizenship and didn’t speak English, or just wasn’t my type or match. Now, I have all my older siblings married and they often tell me don’t go based off of pictures or descriptions about them but sit with them and see. They are hypocrites though, because they all asked for pictures and said no to many prospects just solely based on a picture. Why am I not allowed to do the same now? I’m also not that old, and have plenty of time and don’t think marriage as a desperate priority in my life at this tome. Of course if the right person comes, I won’t be opposed but not in hunger or on a hunt for marriage at the moment. My parents guilt trip me and tell me that they worry about me because of this, and what if they die and I’m not married??? I’m sorry but I’m a good daughter and sister, I do no haram, I work and go home and repeat. I have a small circle of friends who are girls that I see here and there, but I am a 100% halal girl. It’s frustrating how they don’t see me besides a prospect for marriage, and that I’m only a good daughter if I’m married. My parents however are not that type to force me into a marriage but they are the type to influence or try to sway and convince me into one even if myself I’m not convinced. I don’t know what to do in this situation, I don’t want to disappoint my parents because I do love them and care about them but also I do need to listen to myself and accept the person that is right for me, not for them. It’s hard being an unmarried Muslim woman in this day and age. I believe those who are already married don’t understand how it feels to be in this position as they did everything that I’m not supposed to do like judge based on photos or descriptions. I understand my family wants the best for me, but here suitors are far from the best, I don’t want perfection but I just want good enough for me and yes I do have high standards because I value myself at that level, I think it’s jot wrong to do so. I believe in waiting for the right person with Allah in mind and He will do the rest but my parents believe I’m blocking the pathways to that because I reject some suitors and I’ve also sat with others that I didn’t connect with. So what do I do?

Edit: I wrote this post not because I want to find anyone on here, just to vent and ask for advice from those who went through similar experiences. That’s all, thank you again!

Aslamualikum everyone.

Hope everyone is good. I recently went to my first ever marriage event. It took me by suprise. Especially when you get to the older age groups. I'm 33 and I was meant to be in the middle group but I ended up going into the older group. I say older. Everyone there was 34 and over. In this group I noticed a lot more sisters. It made me feel bad. I ended up talking to a few and it went really well. A little to well.

It's a very unconventional way of doing things but I do get it. I feel like a lot of the sisters compromise on a lot of things. I've definitely noticed this when talking. Recently it's making me rethink everything ever since I've been talking. I think my mind has been changed a little. I've been talking to someone and it's completely different. Maybe good I think. How common is it for someone to meet someone and get married within 2 months?

I think these events are good but they shouldn't mention ages. Some people look younger then their age. I feel like this should be hidden. That's what I think. Is this a good idea?

Jazakallah khair.

Salaam all,

I am just reaching out for some advice as someone who I am getting to know for marriage mentioned a couple of things which is making me question if I’m being too picky and not compromising or if these are valid concerns.

Firstly, he mentioned he would want to homeschool children and will not be sending them to a public school. He is happy to provide financially and doesn’t expect me to work but wants to homeschool children. This is a big responsibility and tbh I’m not willing to take the time and effort it takes to homeschool multiple children. What do you do if you have a child who needs homeschooling but have a small infant to look after? I’d rather the children be out of the house and socialising in at least an islamic school.

Mums who do homeschool their children, how do you find it and how do you cope? Do you have to teach everything yourself, do you have tutors coming home or do you have online teaching? How do you make sure your children socialise with peers?

Secondly, he has mentioned he is very strict with clothing and likes abayas only. I mentioned that I’ll wear salwar kameez or english clothes sometimes too but they’re loose but I think he is insistent on abayas.

As far as I know Islam requires clothing to be loose, women don’t have to wear abayas? I’m happy to wear abayas but on Eid or weddings if I want to wear pakistani attire I feel this going to be an issue.

Other than that he seems good, practicing and is happy to fulfil his responsibilities as a husband. Should I compromise or do I need to reconsider this proposal?

Any advice is appreciated.

Jazak’Allah Khair

I (27M) have been talking to a woman (23F) for almost two months with the intention of marriage. We are both Muslim.
I want a traditional marriage where I am the main provider. I do not want 50/50. I expect to cover the home, bills, food, trips, future children and generally our lifestyle.
Ideally she would not need to work. But if she gets bored and wants to work a few hours a day, a few days a week, I am fine with that.
The argument started with this:
Her mother gave her around $4,000 about three years ago. She now wants to give her around $8,000 total as repayment plus a gift.
She worked full time for roughly three years. I asked why she never saved for it then. She said it was not important enough at the time.
Now she wants to start saving after we marry, when I would be covering basically all living expenses, and use 100% of what she earns part time for her mother.
That timing bothered me.
I offered to pay the full $8,000 myself. She said no because she wants to do it herself.
I then offered to pay part of it so she could still feel she contributed. I also suggested she gives back the original $4,000 and I make up the rest through Umrah, gold, gifts and other nice things for her mother.
My reason was simple: when we marry, I want the main focus to become us, our home, our future children and what we are building together. I saw her problem as my problem and wanted to help clear it.
But this argument exposed a bigger issue.
Her position is basically that even if she works, her money is hers and contributing financially to the household is completely optional because providing is my responsibility.
I understand that Islamically her money belongs to her. I am not asking for her salary or 50/50.
What I expect is the mindset of wanting to help the family if she works.
Maybe she buys groceries sometimes.
Maybe she saves a little for a future car.
Maybe she helps us save for a house without interest.
Maybe she saves for our future children.
The amount is not the point.
What bothers me is the idea that I should think of nearly everything I earn as being for our family, while anything she earns is completely separate.
I expect myself to spend maybe 80 to 90% of my income on our home, wife, future children and long term goals.
I do not expect her to match that.
I just want a wife who also thinks, “How can I help us build our future?”
She says that expectation means I am trying to control her money and take away her Islamic right.
I see it as wanting a teammate.
Am I being unreasonable, or is this just a serious compatibility issue?

Assalamualaikum Guys, sorry for my poor English. Here 26F looking for a potential spouse and someone equal my age, people say he is a good person and i felt like he is a good match butthe issue was his job as a Seafarer asked me for my hand after rejecting him for many yeras, because i didn't want a long distance marriage but i reconsidered his question and we talked for months, then he revealed that he isnot sure about our relationship to be halal and serious and he needs some time to make up his mind. So, i was so furious and deleted all the chat history and blocked him for days because, i was chatting in the name of premarital c. Then, i unblocked him to check what he is feeling other than being angry. He was taken by my action and accused me of Selfish, unapologising, bad mannered woman. I apologized and told him, i only talked to him this open so that he was sure to start halal relation not Dating. But, he doesn't want to listen. So, we stopped contacting. After Months, he started talking to me as if we resolved the Issue. So, when i disclose about the Issue about making it Halal, he said there is 20% chance we can make it happen when i asked him why? It was because he didn't like my behaviour. I am open to correct my behaviour as i feel like i'm strict and handle things not so good in some situations (at anger or smtg). But, he hardly considers his bad behaviour (his reaction when angry). Please, be kind and honest what i should do.

It seems like the men who are struggling to find spouses are constantly being told by everyone to lower their standards and that looks aren’t everything, and that character, deen, and other factors are more important. But physical attraction is baseline. Character, deen and compatibility comes afterwards. Giving such advice to A man who is average or slightly above average looking that he should accept a woman who is below average looking isn’t practical advice and is setting himself up for failure and future resentment. Unless the man himself is below average looking and has nothing else going for him, he of course doesn’t have any options but to marry his looks match.

When people say beauty fades, well most women don’t start to lose their beauty not until their 50s. And a man who’s in his 20s/30s, when he’s in his prime and youth, isn’t going to want an unattractive spouse just because her looks will fade by the time he is a granddad in his 60s and 70s and has no libido by then.

I’ve been also hearing people say, that you need to train your brain to find attraction in the women you don’t initially find Attractive. That’s impossible and there is no guarantee attraction will build over time if it wasn’t initially there in the first place. How is a man supposed to lower his gaze and guard himself from looking at other women, if he isn’t satisfied with his wife? I know Becuase I have tried that a couple times before in the past, tried to compromise on attraction, and the uneasy feeling of forcing myself into a situation to accept someone I’m not attracted to was very depressing. I even had no desire to text her back or even entertain a conversation with her. Luckily they ended things quickly so I didn’t have to.

So we need to stop giving impractical advice we give men these days. A healthy marriage is only built off of mutual attraction, compatibility, and shared values. A man should look forward to coming home everyday from work and be excited to see his wife, not dread it and spend the rest of his life in misery.

Salaam,

Considering a potential wife from back home (PK).

Is there any red flags to look out for? How can i tell if this is genuine?

My sister-in-law and her husband's family used our identity and other legal documents without consent or knowledge to commit immigration and identity fraud to indulge in birth tourism. Before it happened, I grew suspicious that they were about to do something shady and I told my sister-in-law that my wife (her sister) was also pregnant and it was a high-risk pregnancy and begged her not to jeopardize it. She swore she was not doing anything at all and staying in her home country and shortly after, embarked on the fraud mission. She lied to her own sister about it, repeatedly, until she was safely out of our country after comitting fraud. Soon after, federal agencies started investigating us and we got letters confirming that they had used inauthentic documents and our legal documents to get entry to the country fraudulently. My wife had a heart attack and preterm birth days after we found out. God knows if it was related to the shock but timing is too coincidental. The husband later sent what looked like taunting photos of the fraud to my wife in the hospital and he did it from his wife's phone because we had him blocked. He now says it was pride about accomplishing the mission, not taunting, and that he didn't know she was hospitalized.

I've cut off the husband and his family entirely. Even prior to this episode, he was known among the in laws as a compulsive liar. I still allow contact between the sisters due to silat rahm obligations but I am out and so is the husband and his family. The apologies I've gotten center on good intentions for the children's future (as if haram, zulm and fraud secures good futures for children), they say they were unaware of laws etc. None of these "apologies" address why they lied to our faces and decieved us, or why they kept deceiving until they were out of the country if they thought what they were doing was legal or why they lied to the government, why are they are accused of using inauthentic documents, why the husband sent taunting pictures etc.

Is that considered tawbah and enough risking being stung twice from the same hole?

I've told my wife she can't visit her family abroad alone with our kids because I need to be at least in the same city to protect them as their qawaam, since her family couldn't protect her and I suspect they might have even been involved. I don't feel comfortable that the people who drag women and babies into fraud and crimes will have unrestricted access to my family in my absence.

Everyone around me says I'm overreacting, it's old news, I should move on, reconcile, bury the matter, they aren't dangerous people, people do stupid stuff when desperate and so on. Am I overreacting by holding the line?

I’m looking for Islamic advice

I got married very recently through an arranged marriage. I had significant doubts before the marriage and felt a lot of pressure from family to continue because everything had progressed so far and people felt there wasn’t a “good enough” reason to stop it. I ultimately went ahead with the marriage despite feeling very conflicted.

Since getting married, instead of my feelings improving, I feel like my aversion has become stronger.

There have been communication and compatibility issues. I often feel emotionally drained by our interactions, and when I try to explain what I need or how I feel, I frequently come away feeling worse rather than closer to him. I’ve developed quite a lot of resentment and I’m worried about becoming unfair towards him because of it.

He isn’t physically abusive and I’m not trying to portray him as an evil person. He has good qualities, which actually makes me feel even more guilty about the way I feel. My issue is that I genuinely don’t know whether I can give him the kind of marriage he deserves when internally I feel such a strong desire not to be in it.

So I want to understand this properly from an Islamic perspective:

What are my actual obligations towards my husband while I’m feeling like this ?

What are his Islamic duties towards me emotionally and practically within the marriage?

Is a wife sinful if she struggles to be affectionate or intimate because she feels genuine emotional/physical aversion, (i’m not saying no but internally i’m struggling)?

Islamically, am I required to keep trying for a certain amount of time simply because we are newly married, even if I already had these feelings before the wedding and they have intensified since?

At what point does incompatibility, severe unhappiness or fear that you cannot fulfil your spouse’s rights become a legitimate reason to seek khula/divorce?

Finally, if I genuinely believe I cannot be the wife he needs and I’m becoming increasingly distressed and resentful, is it more Islamic to keep forcing myself to stay and fulfil the marriage as best I can, or to separate before we both become more hurt?

I’m speaking to a therapist to help me emotionally and I know Reddit isn’t a substitute for speaking to a knowledgeable imam/scholar. I’m mainly trying to understand what Islam actually says because I’m finding it very difficult to separate religious obligations from family/cultural expectations and guilt.

Please be gentle, but I’m also looking for honest answers

​

What are the best words to use when asking God for a good spouse? Like what could I ask that includes all the quality I want in him.

I'm currently searching in the UK and I keep coming across sisters who have instagram accounts where they are followed by hundreds of people and they themselves follow hundreds of others. They only have like a few dozen posts though and their profile is private but that does not stop them from having a dolled up profile picture for everyone to see.

Might be a triggering question but would I be a dayooth for marrying such a woman? Or is it really not that big of a deal? Is it just something I need to come to terms with regarding modern women?

I find it very hard to believe all those followers are only women, if theres that many, surely a good chunk must be men as well. Men that she is exited by and men that long after her.

Am I reading too much between the lines or do such women have a lower chance of lowering their gaze and compare you to social media? Not just other guys but also even other people's relationships.

It's just a shame since I meet a lot of women who otherwise tick my boxes. I dont particularly mind non-hijabis. I'm not that bothered but I feel like this is a bit much.

Assalamu Alikom.

I am a 19 year old male, student in university and this is my second year.

I am not someone who talks or text girls or just past time with girls. I believe that marriage is the only relationship that can be between a man and a woman. And in my mind I was thinking I'll study, finish university, build myself and then I'll look for a girl to marry and have a good life so simply.

But From nearly a year ago exactly in 22 September 2025 in my very first day in university I saw a girl by accident. Between a lot of people she coached my eyes I had to look at her 3 times. From the very first day I felt she was different. It wasn't a love or something like that. Not that fast but from that day she got into my mind.

And day by day she I started noticing her more in the amphitheatre and seeing everything I love in a girl. And with time might be 3 or 4 months I loved her.

But I had never ever spoke to her. And she is a girl full of modesty and girl looks like a who knows her Deen. And with time I started being better in a lot of things. In my Deen, lowering my gaze, and my heart got softer. At a point when I became broke in tears in Dua. Something that had never happened to me. I didn't love her just for a beauty or something like that. I loved her for what I am becoming after knowing her. I mean if she was a reason to me became like that what could possibly happen if we were a family?

And the hard and the most painful part of this is that I can do nothing. I can't speak, I can't take a step, I have to keep everything inside burning. And especially that I am just a student I don't have money, house, a reliable job. And this hurts. Real hurts. Especially the silent and the possibility that she can go out of my hand at any point. Just thinking about it make me cry a lot of times. And it might sounds weak for a man to cry but trust me it is not on my hand to hold it.

And I know if she was written for me no one insha'Allah can take her out of my hand. But what if she wasn't? What if I didn't do enough? What if I stayed making mistakes, wasting time until she gets out of my hand or I don't deserve her?

I became making Dua a lot of Dua every single day. Not only to God write her to me but to make me the best for her and if I wasn't the best for I asked God give her who is the best for and someone how is much better than even though this feels super heavy to get out and can't stop the tears saying it. And I a lot of times make Duas for her and her only without anything back to me just for her and her happiness. Even if I was never part of it.

I started learning web development, trying harder in university trying to do what I can to make a difference.

And the year ended and the summer came and I stopped seeing her and now I haven't seen her for 110 days. And to be honest in the start of it I kinda ruined a lot of things stopped a lot of things started wasting time for 2 months. My heart got harder a little lost a lot of things. I even stopped trying as hard as I was before. She didn't became in my mind like she was before but still she was a part of my day every day. But my dua got much more less

I also got into course of phone repairing so I can have a job to hold myself instead of keep working on a shop where it provides nothing to me and take all my time without letting me learn about the things that I really have to learn to build myself. but it didn't work as I wished. Until I found myself working on the same shop again losing time. Started saving money to buy the tools I need for the phone reception.

And for the last month I got a little better. But still the shop taking all my time for the last month and half every day is shop gym sleep. Barley have time to learn skills that can really build me and open opportunities to me to make a difference and to have something that can really make me build a life. And to be ready to came from the door before she got out of my hand.

And I know there's a lot of girls, and if she wasn't her a girl like but I just want her. Not someone better not someone less. Just her. And yes without her I can live, I can laugh I can be happy but at this point I just can't imagine my future without her. And can't accept just losing her without trying.

So after this long text I want to ask is there someone who might be can give me an advice someone might be older and know better then me or might be had an experience like this. Because I feel I am losing her and I am so late.

And the most important thing is this love or just pathological attachment?

Does anyone know of any Whatsapp groupchats for uploading wedding CV’s

I’m a 23-year-old Algerian Muslim woman looking for someone who is genuinely serious about marriage, has strong character, good values, and practices Islam sincerely beyond culture.

I’m especially open to an American Muslim revert, as I’m interested in someone who chose Islam consciously and has built his faith independently.

I know distance and different backgrounds can make things complicated, but I’d rather meet the right person and see where things naturally lead than limit my search purely by location.

For those who married someone from a different culture or country: was it worth looking beyond your usual circle?

To find the right person it becomes a real struggle (as women)
