Finding a marriage partner...

Sajid Iqbal —

salaam

now if you're single and you want to get married...how do you go about finding a husband/wife?

you dont wanna go back home!
you dont wanna marry your cousin!
you dont wanna date!

so what do you do?

Those who are single here... how do you intend to find your marriage partner?

and those who are married how did you find yours?

I've always talked about setting up a revival matrimonial service.... and soon I'm thinking of setting up a matrimonial databse.... only because so many ppl out there cant find a compatible muslim marriage partner!

share your ideas pls...

Lillythat raises another one of my questions.

Us, the new generation, do we systematically rule out cousins and family relation from our marriage list because this is the thing our parents did/its uncool/or whatever else??

erm i've never ever thought of it like that!!

and i would say no.

well if u marry and live in your own home- not ur in laws- then ur ok; that way if u dont get on, u tolerate but still show respect
reality is majority of ppl dont get on with in laws , and its mostly wife not liking mother in law....

yep its more of a problem for girls.

My mum says when you get married your mother-in-law IS your mother and so should be treated so.

I would like to listen to my mum and treat my mother-in-law like my mum too but i can't do that if i don't like her and don't get along with her or vise versa.It would be really hard if you were living in the parents house which is very likely in an Asian family.

and having problems from the beginning of the marriage is really not a good start!

it doesn't matter so much about sister/brother-in-laws as they probably wouldn't be living with you.

I probably wouldn't marry into a family with a bad reputation though.

YouSince its not fardh to, there is no harm in not forcing yourself to live by old paradigms.

ofcourse

Funzoi feel going up to random people at bus stops is getting me there! eventually someone will say yes!

Law of Average: The more people you speak to the more "No"s you get and the more "no"s you get, the closer you get to a "YES!"

😂 LOVE IT!

FINALLY someone gets it!

The database must be big enough in order for it to be effective in finding matches.

One strategy is to make it mandatory for all revival forum members to sign up... except for me ofcourse 🙂

Just turning it all back on you 😃

MuslimBro and Anon1 sitting in a tree... with Anon1 arguing how the tree represents secularists kuffar values and stating that in an Islamic state the tree would somehow be different, but better.

Yes an Islamic tree analogy would produce fruit whilst a kufar tree would produce thorns - but then you would be there telling everybody both are the same and the Prophet(saw) ate thorns in a hadith you had to fabricate cos you saw many kuffar eating thorns and had to join them!

LookingToSee Sat, 10 Jul 2010 - 21:10

Oh God. After a few days (?) without internet this REALLY cheered me up.
GO REVIVAL!

And yeah, You and Anon. thee best couple

@Funzo *nods and smiles, nods and smiles*

and if you make it compulsory to sign up to the matriomonial site then what about the poor little 12 years old??

@ BLUE. Pff we're gonna have a double wedding, have you already forgotten your promised? our one and only holiday man? Suhail.

edit: wait WHAT AM I SAYING!!!?? I always thought Funzo and Sully went well together, what with their deep biological talks...

Have you heard the hadith about eating something from (AFAIK) Uhud, even if it be thorns?

EDIT - I could analyse your post further - and I had, but I have not deleted it as its just going round in circles of hatred.

Neither I, nor Suhail said anything about getting married unlike you two!!
Lol the 12 year olds probably come on here like once and never come back.

Funzo, go and get married already. You seem to be pretty open about all this 😉

And then invite all the revival crew to the wedding.

And the wedding location should take place somewhere where everyone can get to - places like Bedford don't count. Apologies. =P

i agree with Sully. Find somewhere between manchester and London!

and yep, im fine, even though, YOU were the one bringing talk of wedding on Funzo.... and FB? whats your name there?

@ BLue: dont try it! bringing me down with you! you wanna get married before college eh? even though its going to be a long distance thing because holiday boy wants to spend Eid in Pakistan, or maybe you could join him? Werent you missing Pakistan? the ice cold chocolate thing?

ohh well, being a bachelorette never harmed any. Im quite happy =D <-- see?

i say, we need more twelve years old. So that i can feel old and that all those marriage talk will stop (inshaAllah)

wait, how come its the YOUNGEST who are guetting married??? You? NOor? Sully???????
