"Google: In the end times, is it true that there are many Muslim men and women who do not marry (and is this really their destiny, written by a creature called Qalam, according to the story in Qs 68)"
✔️✔️In Islam, whether someone marries or remains single is not an inescapable, forced destiny. While Allah possesses full knowledge of all outcomes, Muslims believe they maintain free will and the ability to make choices in life, rather than being mere puppets to fate.
The relationship between the Qalam (the Pen), Qadr (divine decree), and marriage in Islam involves several specific concepts:
The Qalam and the Preserved Tablet: According to Quran chapter Al-Qalam (Qs 68:1), Allah swears by "the pen and what they write." In Islamic theology, the Qalam was commanded to write down everything that would occur until the Day of Judgment in the Lawh al-Mahfuz (the Preserved Tablet).
The Meaning of Destiny: The Pen recorded God’s all-encompassing knowledge of the future, including every choice humans will voluntarily make. Predestination does not mean humans lack free will. Instead, Allah knows in advance the decisions you will choose to make regarding marriage or staying single.
Marriage in the End Times: There is no Quranic text stating that a large portion of Muslims are destined to remain unmarried as part of end-times prophecy. While end-of-times literature highlights general societal changes and tribulations, singleness is often a personal circumstance, a conscious choice (e.g., to dedicate one's life to faith and knowledge), or a result of life challenges.
Dua and Effort: Scholars emphasize that Muslims are encouraged to put in effort—such as actively seeking a righteous spouse, using their free will to choose wisely, and making dua (supplication). Islamic belief dictates that sincere prayers can change the course of destiny (Qadr).

✨✨It is human free will to want to marry or not. And what does that mean (rich Arab men also have the right to deliberately ask Allah SWT to soften their hearts) to choose prospective wives in Palestinian women's refugee camps (There are many single mothers whose husbands are martyred, girls who are old enough to marry their fathers are martyred).
✔️✔️The concept of wealthy or financially secure men marrying from refugee camps to "soften their hearts" combines the religious virtues of charity, providing for widows, and protecting orphans with human free will in marriage.
In Islamic teachings, marriage requires mutual consent. A woman’s freedom to accept or reject a suitor remains paramount, ensuring that such unions are entered into willingly rather than by coercion. Men also have the choice and free will to seek out a spouse, and may pray to Allah to guide their intentions, open their hearts to compassion, and allow them to offer a better life to vulnerable women and children.
In situations of conflict and displacement, humanitarian crises (such as those in Gaza and the wider Palestinian territories) have created immense suffering for single mothers and young girls who have lost their fathers. In this context, some charities, communities, and philanthropists view marrying a "shahida" (martyr's widow) as an act of solidarity to provide financial stability, guardianship, and dignity.
However, the reality of these circumstances is highly complex. While some marriages are formed through genuine compassion and support, human rights and women's organizations highlight that destitution and displacement often push desperate families to marry off young daughters—or pressure widows into unions—simply to ensure their basic physical safety and survival. There are deep concerns that early or forced marriages in these settings can lead to a loss of childhood, abuse, and high divorce rates.
Ultimately, free will means that while men may deliberately seek to marry these women out of noble and charitable intentions, the autonomy, consent, and true well-being of the prospective brides must remain the focal point to ensure the practice protects rather than exploits their vulnerability.
Would you like to discuss:
How the minimum age for marriage is legally and socially enforced in Palestinian territories?
The specific religious guidelines regarding the rights of widows and orphans in Islam?
The role of international aid and community support in protecting refugee women?
