Seeking islamic partners

3-1?

:-

I would list the reasons but i'm sure it's pretty obvious how many responsibilities this task holds for organizations yet fail to provide. That in turn causes the service abuse and doors to Fitnah.

I can totally understand why the 3 are in favour, and also why the 1 disagrees.

I remember when my brother described his ideal bride to my mum, and my mum just said: 'Where am I going to find a woman like that ? Perform nafl salaah and make dua to Allah for your needs'

Alhamdulillah, my brother has a wonderful wife, and I a fantastic sister-in-law - may she be pleased with us and her new life. Aameen.

At any juncture of our lives, we have to remember that only Allah can fulfil our needs. There are concerns that a match-making site may be a source of fitnah, so it would be best to observe caution and instead turn directly to Allah.

وَيَرْزُقْهُ مِنْ حَيْثُ لَا يَحْتَسِبُ وَمَن يَتَوَكَّلْ عَلَى اللَّهِ فَهُوَ حَسْبُهُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ بَالِغُ أَمْرِهِ قَدْ جَعَلَ اللَّهُ لِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدْراً
And will provide for him from (a quarter) whence he hath no expectation. And whosoever putteth his trust in Allah, He will suffice him. Lo! Allah bringeth His command to pass. Allah hath set a measure for all things. [Surah Talaaq 65:3]

May Allah grant us his closeness and allow us to seek solace in the knowledge of His infinite power and all-encompassing decree. Aameen

As for the men ... if I understand correctly, and yes, this is from experience, they are overly concerned about pleasing their families in their choice of wife - often based on invalid criteria.

Ya Allah - make our men real men and make our women real women in accordance to your will, not the whims of the other quasi-men and women out there!

A frustrating state of affairs if ever there was one !
