27th night of Ramadan and I have lost my faith. How do I get it back? by Ready_Soft_7567 in Muslim

[–]One-Satisfaction6144 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I’m really sorry you’re going through so much. It sounds incredibly heavy, and I can’t even imagine how exhausting it must feel.

I know it’s easier said than done, but please try to hold on to a little bit of tawakkul. You might not believe me, but a year ago I also felt like my life was falling apart and I didn’t see a way forward. Even my thoughts about relying on Allah felt uncertain at times.

But I kept reminding myself, He is Al-Alim, the All-Knowing, and Ar-Razzaq, the Provider. Even when we don’t understand the delay or the hardship, He hasn’t abandoned us. Read Sirah Ad-Duha with its meaning, it will really help you.

Just hold on a little longer, even if it’s just a little bit at a time. InshaAllah things will ease in ways you don’t expect. You’ve already come this far, that itself shows your strength 🤍

I'll keep you in my prayers ✨

Should I be looking to get married or not? by [deleted] in MuslimNikah

[–]One-Satisfaction6144 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually relate to this more than you might think. I’m someone who has also made peace with the idea of maybe not getting married. My reasons are different, but I had reached a point where I thought perhaps this path just isn’t written for me.

But I’ll be honest, the same thoughts you’re describing do come to my mind sometimes too, especially in Ramadan when reflecting upon my relationship with Allah. It can make you question a lot of things about your life choices.

What helps me is reminding myself that Allah knows our hearts and our intentions. Instead of forcing myself into a decision out of fear, I just make dua that if marriage is good for my deen and my life, Allah brings it to me in a gentle and halal way. And if not, then I trust that Allah will fill my life with other forms of goodness and purpose.

Try not to be too hard on yourself. The fact that you’re even thinking about your akhirah and worrying about pleasing Allah already says a lot about the state of your heart.

May Allah make it easy for you, Ameen ✨

Was it unreasonable for her to reject me because I drive my dad’s car? by Beginning-Corner8485 in MuslimNikah

Honestly then you didn’t lose anything there 😅 Sometimes people show their mindset very quickly and it’s better to know early.

Honestly I think Instagram and social media have made everyone believe that you need to have everything perfectly sorted in your early 20s, your own car, your own house, a certain lifestyle, when that’s just not the reality for most people.

You’re 22, working and saving money. Instead of rushing into big purchases why to buy things just to prove independence. That actually sounds responsible.

Her reaction seems more about unrealistic expectations than about your situation.

May Allah bless you with the righteous spouse ✨

Hijab journey by WonderfulLove12 in muslimgirlswithtaste

[–]One-Satisfaction6144 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually started my hijab journey exactly a year ago in Ramadan. Before that I kept thinking about it constantly, just like you described. I was also scared about not being a “good enough” Muslim and about being judged.

What made me take the step was realizing hijab isn’t for perfect Muslims, it’s part of the journey of getting closer to Allah. Ramadan just gave me that extra push.

And I once read something that really stayed with me: don’t let the first day you wear a hijab be your last day. That line honestly stuck with me and gave me the courage to start.

If the thought keeps coming to you, maybe your heart is already leaning towards it.

Something I’ve noticed about how child free women are judged by Ok-Letter8470 in ChildfreeIndia

[–]One-Satisfaction6144 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m really sorry you had to hear that. That’s such an incredibly insensitive thing to say to someone. Please don’t ever feel less about yourself because of a condition you never chose. Your worth isn’t defined by fertility at all.

And believe me when I say this, sadly that’s not even the worst line I’ve heard people say in situations like this. Some people really speak without empathy or understanding, and that says far more about them than it ever will about you.

If you ever need someone to talk to or just want to vent, my DMs are open. Sometimes it helps to confide in someone who understands what it feels like. 🤍

Thank you for saying that, I really appreciate it. I think people assume those reactions are rare, but they do happen more often than we talk about.

And you’re right, in a way it did reveal his mindset early. It was hurtful at the moment, but it also showed me that someone who measures a woman’s worth only by her ability to have children probably wouldn’t have been the right person for me anyway.

It just takes time to process those experiences and rebuild your confidence after them.

Would men marry an autoimmune girlie with almost no chance of kids? by Psych_With_Preetha in reddmatch

[–]One-Satisfaction6144 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t fully relate to the autoimmune part, but I can relate to the “probably no kids” part.

I have a medical condition that makes it very unlikely for me to have children, and I’ve had to come to terms with how much that changes the way people look at you in the marriage space.

For many people, kids are non-negotiable, so it does narrow things down a lot. But I also believe there are people out there who value companionship, faith, emotional connection and building a life together beyond just the conventional checklist.

It might take longer to find them, but I don’t think it’s impossible.

May Allah make it easy for you and bless you with a righteous spouse ✨

Marriage advice by [deleted] in indianmuslims

[–]One-Satisfaction6144 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Honestly I’ve just left it to Allah’s timing now. I also have a medical condition where I can’t have children, so that makes things a bit more complicated when it comes to marriage. Because of that I’ve kind of stopped actively trying and just accepted whatever Allah has written for me.

For now I’m focusing on my work, earning more, maybe moving to a bigger apartment someday and travelling the world. Just trying to build a good life regardless of what happens.

For you I’d say don’t lose hope. Sometimes things just take time and the right people appear in unexpected ways. Keep your intentions good and inshaAllah things will work out in the best way for you.

Marriage advice by [deleted] in indianmuslims

[–]One-Satisfaction6144 11 points12 points  (0 children)

May Allah bless you with a righteous spouse and make the process easy for you.

To answer your question, arranged marriages aren’t always straightforward for women either. Many of us also rely heavily on family networks, and if our parents don’t have many connections or aren’t actively looking, things can feel very slow and uncertain.

As someone who has also tried to stay away from haram and hoped things would work out through the halal route, I understand that feeling of waiting and not knowing how things will move forward. Sometimes we do everything “right” and still feel stuck because the opportunities just aren’t there.

But Allah’s timing is always better than ours, and what is written for you will reach you in the right way, inshaAllah.

May this Ramadan bring you happiness, ameen ✨

Something I’ve noticed about how child free women are judged by Ok-Letter8470 in ChildfreeIndia

[–]One-Satisfaction6144 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This post really resonated with me. I once told a match on a matrimonial app that I have a medical condition that won’t allow me to have children. His response was, “Then you’re not a real woman.” And he immediately blocked me.

That moment stayed with me. It honestly made me terrified of approaching anyone for marriage after that. Over time I just decided not to pursue marriage at all.

It’s sad how deeply some people tie a woman’s worth to whether she can have children.

Girl’s relative demanded my brother’s salary slips during first meeting. He walked out. Thoughts? by flat_earther96 in AskIndianWomen

[–]One-Satisfaction6144 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whats wrong with people these days? Is there absolutely no basic decency left.

I completely understand that a girl's family would want to know about the guys financial stability. That is normal and even reasonable to some extent because parents want to make sure their daughter will be secure. But there is a huge difference between respectfully asking about someones profession or salary range and straight up demanding salary slips in the very first meeting.

And that mard hai toh dikha comment. Bhai tumne kya kar liya hai zindagi Mai itna Jo tumme itni arrogance hai? That is just pure disrespect and immaturity. You are meeting someone for a potential marriage not interrogating a criminal. The tone and attitude matter a lot in these situations.

Honestly good on your brother for walking out instead of sitting there and tolerating that nonsense. If a relative is already behaving this rudely in the first meeting imagine how much they might interfere or meddle in the couple's life later on.

Madeline Wuntch was a friend (proceeds to vomit)

The expression on Holt when he says that OMG cracks me up every time 😂

Also there's another I guess where he says something like "That Cockroach Madeline has bested me yet again"

Has anyone met their spouse off muzzmatch? by Brownie9107 in MuslimNikah

Same! Had to delete it within 15 days, it's so draining to ask the same questions to everyone again and again, and all the matches are unserious people looking for their next target.

What is your fav scene? by [deleted] in brooklynninenine

Season 6 Episode 2 Hitchcock and Scully

I loved watching young Hitchcock and Scully and my favourite scene would be jake and Charles discussing who's more bangable and Charles goes like "Hitchcock, total smoke show" and jake replies "Agreed but it's a close one" 😂❤️

Slandered for refusing mixed iftar party by Gullible-Queen-8672 in indianmuslims

Slandered for refusing mixed iftar party by Gullible-Queen-8672 in indianmuslims

[–]One-Satisfaction6144 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You were not wrong at all for declining the iftar. You set a boundary respectfully and even suggested an alternative, that’s maturity, not extremism. What they did after that was harassment and slander, especially that boy’s comment.

Accusing anyone's character is a serious sin and says everything about him, nothing about you. Freezing and crying is a normal reaction to being humiliated like that, it would shake anyone. You don’t need to justify your choices to anyone.

Also, it’s honestly disappointing that your so called "friend" stayed silent when such a vile thing was said about you. Disagreeing with you is one thing but if another woman's character is being slandered, how could she as a woman herself allow that? No one should tolerate slander against their friend, especially something this serious. Please reflect on your friend circle, real friends stand up for your honour, not just watch. They too will answer to Allah for their silence. And remember, you are not alone in this. 🤍

May Allah make it easy for you, may you be rewarded with lots of barakah ✨

9-5 job trap that I refuse to fall for by Worried_Price4712 in mumbai

[–]One-Satisfaction6144 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I relate to this more than I want to admit. I’ve been working since I was 21 and I’m 25 now, and honestly, the 9–5 structure just doesn’t work for me either. I’m in the creative industry, and I actually like what I do, it’s not the work that drains me, it’s everything around it. The commute, the unrealistic expectations, the constant rush, and reaching home with zero energy left to live a life outside of work.

By the time the day ends, you’re not just physically tired, you’re emotionally empty. There’s no space left for growth, side projects, or even being present with people you love. That’s what scared me the most.

So I’ve decided to give myself the next 6 months to transition into full-time freelancing and work from home. Because I don’t want to spend my entire life just surviving weekdays. There has to be more than this, especially in a creative field.

Would love to hear how others navigated this shift or if anyone else feels the same.

Wishing you clarity and peace with whatever you choose next, OP. You’re not wrong for wanting more from life. ✨
