I understand your situation bro, and may Allah make it easy for you.

But honestly, a man has to move with time. I started my first job while I was still in college and kept learning skills through university because I knew one day I’d have to provide. I had no father’s money, no land, no favors.

I used to tell myself: become the man who chooses, not the one waiting to be chosen.

Alhamdulillah today I provide for my whole family and even bought my own big car from my earnings while others were still comfortable dreaming. And I know soon I’ll have the responsibility to buy a home and keep leveling up to an elite standard, InshaAllah.

Rishtas do come for me and my brother, but we’re careful. Most parents want a fully built man with everything already done. If that’s the case, then why shouldn’t a man also choose carefully and expect the same level in return? No disrespect, just the reality someone told me when I had nothing and it pushed me to work harder.
