I am a divorced woman with three alhumdulillah children. Is it against Islam if I decide never to re-marry. I am 33 years old, so my family are concerned for me to stay single.
If I have to re-marry does it have to be to who my family decides, or do i have a choice this time.



In the Name of Allah, the Inspirer of Truth.
Assalamu Alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh

It is your choice to get married again or not and who you get married to. As always, it is always important to consult family and but the final choice is yours.

However, it is preferable to get married if you receive a proposal from a pious person. To remain single is discouraged in Islam.
