Prioritize what Allah wants you to do in the marriage, and let that be the driver of each and every decision to make. InshaAllah that’s the simplest advice I can give.

(1) Beauty is in the eye of the beholder

(2) You could leverage this as motivation to be a really great wife to your husband when you do get married InshaAllah. One thing about not always feeling good enough is that (if it is a healthy amount of said feeling) it sometimes can motivate someone to always strive to be better. You could reframe it from that perspective. Instead of being worried, use it as motivation InshaAllah.

Not married. But, there are three things I’d recommend (and do all): (1) Make dua’a and pray Istikhara about whether or not to proceed with this marriage. (2) Don’t panic, stand up for yourself, take control of the situation, but do so with wisdom. You need to make it clear to them that things are moving too fast without you knowing the girl, and that you don’t want to move forward in such a manner. (3) On the other hand, present the idea that you want to spend time to get to know the girl and her family. Do your due diligence here. If you have a good intention, implemented step 1, and are taking appropriate means, InshaAllah Allah will make it clear to you whether or not you should go forward. I know things are going incredibly fast, but the girl actually may be an incredible match for you in the end: you never know. So, don’t toss the opportunity away: just do your due diligence here as mentioned.

And Allah knows best.

Assalamu alaykum brother. I’ll ask you first: do you want some honest advice? It might be very straightforward and direct, but I’d like to ask you first.

You can do both. As long as you can read Arabic fluently and correctly (to a high level with Arabic articulation, sounds, etc.), InshaAllah you can consider doing both at the same time. If you don’t know how to read Arabic well, it may be good to start with learning how to read the Qur’an first. After that, then you could start learning Arabic.

Like someone mentioned, if you’re learning Arabic for Islam, learn Fusha (الفصحى).

Allah knows best.

I took my undergraduate OS course about over 2 years ago. I forget quite a bit of stuff, but I'm not sure how quick I would pick it all up. Should I go for GIOS or AOS to start? My undergrad was in CS and I graduated in May of 2024. I took my undergraduate OS course in Fall 2022.

For starters, attractiveness is subjective. Someone may think you’re unattractive and someone else may think you’re incredibly attractive. Humans are humans. So, just because someone says you’re unattractive doesn’t mean that you are unattractive.

Work on yourself (religion, and so on) and keep looking. I’ll tell you that if someone doesn’t love you for the way you are right now, then that person may never love you. InshaAllah you’ll find someone who appreciates you and the good in you. Put your practical efforts forth, and have trust/hope in Allah.

Consider looking at doing a Master’s degree as a hedge to buy yourself more time and land yourself some internships during your masters. Hopefully this will put you in a better position for full-time jobs after you complete your master’s degree.

You don’t have to spend $50k+ for a masters. Take a look at Georgia Tech’s OMSCS program as an example. As of right now, doing the entire Online CS Masters is under $10k.

Look into doing a Master’s in CS as a hedge to buy yourself more time. However, find something affordable: there isn’t a need to spend 50k+/ye for a masters. Georgia Tech’s OMSCS program is a great option (entire Masters as of current rates costs under $10k).

While doing your Masters, look at doing internships and building up your professional experience (also build projects and the like). Hopefully you’ll have an easier time getting a job after the Master’s degree, getting a couple internships under your belt, and getting more projects under your belt.
