Tell me why do you think so hard to get married or find someone you want to get married to?

"And keep yourself patient [by being] with those who call upon their Lord in the morning and the evening, seeking His countenance. And let not your eyes pass beyond them, desiring adornments of the worldly life, and do not obey one whose heart We have made heedless of Our remembrance and who follows his desire and whose affair is ever [in] neglect." (18:28)

Because there just aren't that many people really worth marrying around, let alone ones that are free, the right age, in the right part of the world, etc.
And they serve beside Allah what can neither harm them nor profit them, and they say: These are our intercessors with Allah. Say: Do you (presume to) inform Allah of what He knows not in the heavens and the earth? Glory be to Him, and supremely exalted is He above what they set up (with Him). [Qur'an 10:18, Shakir translation]

Now, surely, sincere obedience is due to Allah (alone) and (as for) those who take guardians besides Him, (saying), We do not serve them save that they may make us nearer to Allah, surely Allah will judge between them in that in which they differ; surely Allah does not guide him aright who is a liar, ungrateful. [Qur'an 39:3, Shakir translation]

Our long, never-ending check lists have made it hard for us to get married in this day and age.

Previously, with our ancestors, marriage was so simple and easy. Most couples would see each other for the first time on their wedding nights. And they went on to have great marriages with lots of kids

Anyone here wiling to have a "blind" marriage? I don't think so!

Because of our society and culture to be honest. Males are females are always separated from each other in Muslim countries so you hardly ever get the chance to meet a girl. When you do meet someone you simply can't go up to them, well you can but it might turn out very bad. For example, if a guy went up to a woman he will either get a bullet in his head by the dad or the female will look at him like "You.. pfft".
And like someone said, in today's age, people have different priorities than marriage and other factors effect the fact if you can get married or not.
An open mind is the most powerful weapon in the universe, specially the one that worships Allah.

Life is beautiful. You just have to take a closer look.

The strong rule the weak, but the wise rule the strong.

(salam)

I agree with you, men spend long spans of time or go into debt just to afford a marriage ceremony, 25,000 + just to get married these days not including mahr. I think its time to consider that our families can arrange good quality marriages in our best interest and we need to stop being desirous of so much wealth and extravagance.

The perception of marriage has changed and it has been built up as a grand spectacle over the centuries, and as such expectations were raised and increasing failures became inevitable and selection of a spouse began to revolves around aesthetics, finance and university education.

The grandeur of the wedding ceremony, the long engagement process, the endless parties beforehand have all contributed to this, as well as the media's incessant ramblings about finding the one, true love, and happiness.

It should be seen as another vital transition in life but a necessary and inevitable one. It is just another stage in life and like one goes from childhood to the teenage years for example, one goes from being single to getting married.

The beauty of pleasing Allah, completing half your deen and the harmony of creating a family, has taken an inferior and secondary position to the size of the wedding hall, the cost of the wedding dress and the location of the honeymoon.

Well, I don't know about the rest of you, but I just don't seem to be able to find a man worthy of me... :rolleyes:

But seriously, there is a chronic shortage of good matches out there and people seem to have weird definitions of 'good match'.

I was watching a programme yesterday about muslims trying to find a spouse in britain. It was following one woman, in her early 30's, a doctor by profession, British Pakistani woman who refused to even consider non-doctors. I mean if that isn't ridiculous, then I don't know what is.

LET'S CHANGE THE RULES!!!! LANAT ON FULAN AND FULAN!!!

And don't play coy with claiming to not know who the fulans and fulanas are...

Yeh. Problem is, I don't think she was a psychiatrist, so I doubt she could find anybody crazy enough to want to marry her.

I think we all start with haram ways which leads to nothing because what was built on haram won't last

Although I found the right person alhamdella

SUNNIS, I WANT TO PLAY A GAME..

For the past 14 centuries you have killed the family of the Prophet (P) and prosecuted their followers when your ancestors were in power. Now the tables have turned. You have to choose a side, either you are with Ahlulbayt a.s or against them. Make your choice: live or die.

I dont find marrige that hard , i could get married right now actually , but i wont because i know i wouldnt be able to support my wife and i hate taking money from someone makes me feel like i owe them my life or something :PP

Am sorry to say this i am a sayyid and i belive its wrong ! but who ever says i wont marry except if its a sayyid you are not going to find anyone i guess because if you are so narrow minded and the only thing that you want is a sayyid then i think Allah wouldnt give you that.

You must be willing to search and experience different girl to be able to marry the right one.

Guys also if you think money is an issue , i was listne to Sayyid Falli speaking during ramadan he said that

Prophet Mohmmed married the Greatest woman ( May God Forgive me if my information is wrong :) and the muhr was only 100 $!!!! so i dont think we are any better ;)

well money comes in to make marrying hard. Now days, if u don't have money, forget about it. You won't marry that girl.

"And keep yourself patient [by being] with those who call upon their Lord in the morning and the evening, seeking His countenance. And let not your eyes pass beyond them, desiring adornments of the worldly life, and do not obey one whose heart We have made heedless of Our remembrance and who follows his desire and whose affair is ever [in] neglect."

I understand but did you know that our Prophet married the greatest woman that had all the most money in the world for just 100 $ ? if you really did want to get marry and fulfill the other half for muslims money wouldnt be the issue because you have your faith in Allah.

a Story that Sayyid Falli said :

A woman once came into the mosque where Our prophet was sitting with a few guys , and she told him i want to get married and the Prophet ÓÈÍÇäå æÊÚÇáì instead of shouting at her or telling her what is this disgrace ask her for what her name is , and then he asked the fellows sitting with him who would want to take this girl for marrige one guy said i would and the Prophet said what do you own ? He answered him back with nothing , but he said i know Sura al bakara , so the Prophet said the muhr would be teaching her sura al bakara and now i pronounce you husband and wife - SALO 3ALA MUHAMMAD WA ALY MUHAMAD :)

This is how i remeber the story ( Please forgive me if i said anything wrong or missing in the story ) :)

it is a nice story. Those times, no one was materialistic. Everyone has money on the mind. If you don't own anything or have any income, the family will not accept the marriage. Even for the guy, he will not have the most pleasant life with her. Because to girls, money bring security.

For myself. I do not care if he is rich, just as long as he can stand on his two feet.

"And keep yourself patient [by being] with those who call upon their Lord in the morning and the evening, seeking His countenance. And let not your eyes pass beyond them, desiring adornments of the worldly life, and do not obey one whose heart We have made heedless of Our remembrance and who follows his desire and whose affair is ever [in] neglect."
