All things marriage

It is difficult for an Arab girl to marry without a dowry
The West marries without a dowry, but when a Western girl is an Arab man, she asks for a dowry
I don't know why. I was on a wedding date with an American girl, and after a long time and the marriage was approaching, she asked for a lot of money for her dowry and the costs of the marriage.
She refused marriage because of the demand for a lot of money😓😂

Assalamu Alaikum,

I'm here with a sincere intention to find a life partner and, In Sha Allah, build a meaningful marriage.

Alhamdulillah, I'm professionally employed, family-oriented, and ready to settle down. Beyond work, I'm deeply passionate about exploration and adventure—whether it's camping, trekking, kayaking, rafting, chasing waterfalls, or discovering hidden places off the beaten path.

I'm also fascinated by people, cultures, and anthropology. I genuinely enjoy learning about different ethnicities, backgrounds, and ways of life, and I believe empathy, curiosity, and open-mindedness help us connect on a deeper level.

Looking for someone kind-hearted, genuine, and serious about marriage. If we share similar values and connect well, I'd be happy to take things forward with family involvement, In Sha Allah.

Girls, do you prefer a religious guy or a guy who is not too religious but still a good Muslim and wants to learn?

I’m sorry, but what is the point of liking my profile and then when I like back and we match you block me. A simple unmatch would suffice, but blocking as if I’m going to request a rematch is crazy work. 🥴

I finally understand why the prophet pbuh said that most people in Jahanam are women.

Gentlemen I met with my girl, wish y’all the best. She’s way better than I expected and she happened right when I was closing my doors to love so don’t loose hope, Allah has something for you IA.

If someone keeps disrespecting you to see how much they can push your limits and keeps you in a cycle of positive reinforcement and disrespect - is it okay to leave without saying anything? I’m very anti ghosting even in the worst of situations but I’m feeling deeply disrespected by this suitor time after time and I can no longer justify it by anything because it’s become clear to me that he’s trying emotional manipulation on me to get what he wants

Your spouse and your children will become mirrors. Not the kind that shows your face. The kind that shows your character.

The person you marry will influence your habits, priorities, vision, and even your relationship with Allah ﷻ.

And your children? They will often reveal parts of yourself you never noticed.

Sometimes the most uncomfortable moment as a parent is seeing your own flaws reflected back at you.

Your temper.
Your impatience.
Your habits.
Your words.

سبحان اللہ

Perhaps this is why family is one of Allah’s greatest tools for personal growth.

Marriage is not only about finding the right person. It’s also about becoming the right person.

And family is not only a source of comfort. It’s a classroom for character.

﴿ يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا قُوا أَنْفُسَكُمْ وَأَهْلِيكُمْ نَارًا ﴾

“Protect yourselves and your families from the Fire.” (Qur’an 66:6)

May Allah ﷻ grant us spouses and children who bring us closer to Him, and may He allow us to become better through the responsibilities He entrusts to us.

آمين 🤍

Any other revert sisters feel a little discouraged? Let me explain. I don’t regret my revision at all but I don’t feel like a good Muslim because there is so much I don’t know or yet follow. I truly believe Allah knows I’m trying my best and that’s enough. That brings me peace. The other part is dating which is not a priority but I’m trying to understand culturally the differences. What I’m finding so far is a lot of judgement. I’m 38 and divorced with a child. I also normally work in IT but I’ve struggled recently with employment. Luckily I found two jobs to survive on until I find another IT position. I’m also in school for some Ai certifications. I also am sober now but I know what being high or drunk feel like. A lot of Muslim men completely freak out over that or the fact I have a child. Is there any hope finding friends in my community who will not judge me for not knowing a lot? Will I find a man okay with my past, and willing to help me learn? My heart is completely in the right place and I know Allah is guiding me. That I feel in my soul. Things are aligning in my favor. I also just left an extremely abusive man and I am in a custody battle. That is very isolating, but so much more because I don’t feel most sisters can relate. I’m not sure my point, my hearts just a bit heavy. I’ve been going to my mosque and I just don’t feel connected there and it’s not the experience I hoped
