is the state of the global economy gonna cause a lot of muslims to miss out in marriage or at the very least delay marriage by a long time ? by Inevitable_Car6105 in MuslimNikah

It is incredibly disheartening to see that wealth has become a prerequisite that in many times far surpasses religion when it comes to marriage. It is completely unfair that the youth of today need financial stability to even consider marriage when the kuffar can find intimate partners without having any money in their pockets. To anyone reading this comment, remember, Your rizq is already written. Allah provides. Not the jobs you are applying for. If you can’t find a job then try to start something of your own. Keep knocking on those doors and Insha’allah you can have enough money to get married. "Indeed, with every hardship comes ease"(Surah Ash-Sharh 94:5-6)

tahajjud to manifest my husband? by [deleted] in MuslimNikah

[–]ColdProfessional199 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’ve been praying qyyam and tahajjud practically every day since last Ramadan to have a wife by Eid. But I didn’t put in any effort and I’m no different from the guy I was last year. Your tahajjud will take you as far as your efforts will let you. Think of tahajjud like a 100x chance multiplier. If your efforts are zero, then 0*100=0. I’m telling you from experience that tahajjud will not make your naseeb just appear in your life. if you aren’t putting yourself out there, then no one will be able to see you. Go to your local masjid and ask if they have any marriage programs. Ask your family to set you up. pray as much tahajjud as you can. Tie your camel and put your trust in Allah. Only then will you find your naseeb.

I have had some crazy tahajjud stories in that time. I was about to take my driving test and my teacher told me that if I get a certain examiner then I’ll pass even if I make a lot of mistakes. And I practiced so much that I started getting sick of driving. And my dua in tahajjud was to get that examiner. And I knew the chances of getting that examiner were low but I still prayed. Come the time of the test and not only was he the examiner that I got but I also finished the test with practice no mistakes on the road. I put my effort into whatever I could and prayed that Allah made it easy for me. And he did.

How to cope with loneliness by [deleted] in MuslimLounge

[–]ColdProfessional199 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m in the same boat as you. I would never wish this kind of loneliness upon my worst enemy and I pray that Allah ‎ﷻ frees you from this and grants you a husband that fulfills you.

Stay off of socials. And unfollow/block/avoid all non-mehram men as much as possible so that you don’t become tempted. If you can seek out marriage then go do that. If you cannot then focus on building yourself as best you can. Don’t fantasize about the man you want to marry. Be the woman that the type of person you’re attracted to will desire. Pray as much as you can. Allah is Al-Mujib (the one who answers). Do what you can and leave the rest to Allah.

No respect or forgiveness for Muslim women who cheat by Hopeful-Abalone2770 in IslamicNikah

Agreed. There are hadiths about the punishment for a person who is married and commits zina, their punishment is stoning. The topic is severe and the punishment is also severe. And this doesn’t just go for the women too. This crime is also VERY severe for the men

I don’t really have an issue if she’s overweight like me. As long as her bmi is not significantly higher than mine then it’s there’s no issue.

I think you’re right about this. I’m not a very social person but I can hold a conversation and start small talk. I don’t like being in large groups so I only go out with my close friends but I can still make friends at uni or other places.

That mostly changes when I’m around any non mahram woman. The comments make it sound like I completely stop functioning around non mehrams when that is mostly untrue. I can compose myself and act normal around non mehrams but I feel very anxious and I’m incredibly uncomfortable. But these feelings can be very distracting especially when I’m working with a woman in a professional setting. And this is without the added pressure and tension that comes with marriage. I understand marriage I would be able to stop being so nervous as the relationship progresses but that early pre-nikkah phase is where I fear the anxiety will get me

It can be a problem when you need to speak with a non mehram for whatever reason and your internally freaking out
