To The Woman Allah Wrote For Me 🤍

Letter No 2

Assalamualaikum

Still dont know your name

Maybe one day you will read this

And laugh

Thinking

This man was writing letters before he even met me

Jamaa becoming my little diary now

Every time i miss someone i never met

I come here and write another letter

One day InshaAllah

When we finally meet

Im going show you every single one

And say

Look

You was never a stranger in my duas

You just hadnt arrived yet

You know

People ask me what kind of woman i want

Truth is

I dont care about perfect face

Or perfect life

Beauty changes

Money comes and goes

But good heart

Good character

And someone who remembers Allah

Thats rare

I hope one day

When we have little argument

We still choose respect

When life becomes difficult

We still choose each other

When we become old

We still laugh at the same silly jokes

I dont know how many more letters i will write

Maybe 10

Maybe 100

But if Allah really wrote you for me

One day you will read them all

And realise

Someone was waiting for you

Long before you even knew his name

Until then

May Allah protect you

And if you reading this already

Dont worry

Letter No 3 coming soon 🤍

Islam encourages marriage for young Muslim men and women because it serves many important spiritual, moral, emotional, and social purposes. The encouragement is based on wisdom and the recognition of human nature.

  1. To protect chastity and modesty.
    The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said:
    “O young people, whoever among you is able to marry, let him marry, for it helps lower the gaze and guard chastity…”
    (Reported in Sahih al-Bukhari and Sahih Muslim)

Marriage provides a lawful way to fulfill natural desires and helps protect people from zina (fornication) and other sinful relationships.

  1. To find tranquility and companionship.
    Allah says:
    “And among His signs is that He created for you spouses from among yourselves so that you may find tranquility in them; and He placed between you affection and mercy.”
    (Qur’an 30:21)

Marriage is intended to bring peace, love, mercy, and emotional support.

  1. To complete part of one’s faith.
    A well-known hadith states that when a person marries, they have completed half of their religion, so they should fear Allah regarding the other half. Although scholars differ on the strength of its chains, its meaning is widely cited because marriage helps a Muslim protect many aspects of their faith.

  2. To establish families.
    Marriage is the foundation of the family in Islam. It provides a stable environment for raising children with Islamic values, love, and good character.

  3. To support one another in worship.
    A righteous husband and wife encourage each other to pray, remember Allah, exercise patience, and grow in faith together.

  4. To fulfill a natural human need.
    Islam recognizes that affection, intimacy, and companionship are natural desires. Rather than suppressing them or encouraging relationships outside marriage, Islam directs them into a lawful and responsible relationship.

  5. To strengthen society.
    Strong marriages contribute to stable families and communities. They promote mutual responsibility, compassion, and care for future generations.

Why the Prophet ﷺ addressed the youth

The Prophet ﷺ specifically addressed young people because this is often a stage of life when natural desires become stronger. If a young person is able to marry—financially and emotionally—marriage can help them remain chaste and avoid many of the temptations they may face.

For those who are not yet able to marry, the Prophet ﷺ advised fasting, as it can help with self-control until marriage becomes possible.

In summary, Islam encourages marriage not simply as a social custom, but as an act of worship and a means of protecting faith, fostering love and mercy, building families, and helping Muslim men and women live balanced, fulfilling lives in accordance with Allah’s guidance.

The Quran doesn’t say marriage is for children or status. It says it’s for tranquility, love, and mercy. Most couples chase the wrong outcome

In Islam, parents have a position of great honor, and children are commanded to treat them with kindness and respect. At the same time, parents have serious responsibilities toward their children and are not permitted to misuse their authority.

When it comes to marriage, Islam generally encourages it for those who are able. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said:

“O young people, whoever among you is able to marry, let him marry…”
(Reported in Sahih al-Bukhari and Sahih Muslim)

If parents deliberately and without a valid Islamic reason prevent an adult son or daughter from marrying suitable spouses over many years, knowing this is causing hardship, they may be committing a sin. Such behavior can lead to:

• Denying a child one of their important rights

• Causing unnecessary hardship and emotional distress.

• Potentially exposing the child to temptation or loneliness.

• Being accountable before Allah for any injustice they knowingly commit

The Qur’an commands justice:

“Indeed, Allah commands justice, excellence, and giving to relatives…” (Qur’an 16:90)

It also warns against ظلم (wrongdoing or injustice), and Allah does not approve of oppression.

For adult children, parents should advise and guide them, but they do not have unlimited authority to prevent a lawful marriage indefinitely without a sound Islamic reason. If a proposed spouse is suitable in terms of religion and character, repeated refusal for reasons such as social status, ethnicity, disability, wealth, or excessive personal preference is not supported by Islamic teachings.

If such delays occurred intentionally, then those parents are accountable to Allah. On the Day of Judgment, every person will answer for how they fulfilled the trusts placed upon them, including their responsibilities toward their children.

At the same time, Islam teaches the son or daughter to continue treating their parents respectfully, even if they have been wronged, while also taking lawful steps to live their own life and pursue marriage. Respecting parents does not require obeying them in matters that involve disobedience to Allah or accepting ongoing injustice.

If someone believes their youth was lost because of years of unjustified delay, Islam recognizes that this can be a genuine hardship. However, it also encourages them not to lose hope. A person’s future remains in Allah’s hands, and sincere efforts to seek a righteous spouse, combined with trust in Allah, are always worthwhile.
