DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm As-Sabt. 30th day of Dhul-Hijjah, 1445AH (Saturday, 6th July 2024).

A SISTER NEEDED ANSWERS AS TO WHY SHE WAS STRUGGLING TO FIND A GOOD HUSBAND TO MARRY. BismilLah 

First of all, before answering this question I would like to point out that all matters are in the hands of ALLAAH; no benefit comes and no harm is warded off except by HIS help. The One Who relieves distress is ALLAAH, so if anything befalls a person he or she must turn to ALLAAH and beseech HIM and call upon HIM, whether that has to do with attaining something desired or removing something disliked. 

ALLAAH says:

“And whatever blessings and good things you have, it is from ALLAAH. Then, when harm touches you, unto HIM you cry aloud for help” [al-Nahl 16:53]. 

Let's have patience and seek reward with ALLAAH. All you need to do is to be open-minded that you want to marry for ALLAH'S sake, and acting with patients is enough for ALLAH to hear your cry. You should be optimistic and expect good things to happen. If you feel some distress or waswas (insinuating whispers from the Shaytaan), then increase your dhikr (remembrance of ALLAAH), seek refuge in ALLAAH from the accursed Shaytaan, and focus on worship and other good deeds, until your distress is eased. 

It may also be blessings in disguise so don't start accusing any old person in the family to be witch preventing you to marry. ALLAH says in the Qur'an that HE created some women baren and that's better for such women if they remain patient till death. 

YOUR only solution is to make dua and the best dua to recite with hope the following zikir. Laailaaha illaa Anta Astaghfiruka wa atuubu ilaika yaa Hayyu yaa qayyuum biRahmatika astaqeeth. Meaning There is none worthy of worship except you ALLAH I seek your forgiveness and I repent to You. You are the living and maintainer of life so with your Mercy I seek your help. Anyone can recite this dua regularly for whatever you desire from ALLAH. 

We ask ALLAAH to keep you and us safe and sound and grant you and all sisters in similar situations pious husbands and pious children. Aameen.
