As'salaamu alaikum brothers and sisters, I hope you can help me with my probelm in anyway insha allah. For little more than a year now i have been looking to get married, i have extensively searched and taken every avenue that i could think of or was suggested to find a husband, but it seems muslim men in this age they care more about a persons looks rather than their deen or character i say this because i have a disability the reason why iam constantly turned down this is making me really depressed alot i wish they would just get to know the person iam inside but they won't give me the time of day. I want to give up but like the tittle suggested my heart will not let me i have tried doing things to get it out of my mind like going back to school and that didn't work, seeing all the girls that i knew married with babies adds up to my hurt i know iam a good person inside and a practicing muslim alhamdulilah and iam not a bad looking woman either but its just not enough for them. How am i suppose to complete half of my deen when iam treated as though iam some alien from another planet due to my disability that i cannot do anything about. I wish they would see that iam a human being with feelings and has the same needs as everyone else. Please give me advice.
Greetings and peace be with you 04/11/2009; I have always found the people here to be kind and encouraging in times of need. I believe you are much stronger than you give yourself credit for.
My mum had multiple sclerosis and for about the last twenty years of her life, she could not move her hands, or legs. I honestly do not know how she endured this for so long, she seemed to have a quiet and gentle faith in God, she rarely complained. She always seemed more concerned about our problems, than her own.
She could only sit in her wheel chair for two or three hours at a time, before it became uncomfortable for her, and there seemed so little any of us could do to help.
I can only say she is the strongest person I shall ever meet, she endured so much in loving kindness for others. Her body might have seemed dead to her, but she had a wonderful spirit.
This prayer is so powerful in striving to come to terms with the things in life that seem impossible to cope with, you are in my prayers. We must trust that God puts all things right in a greater good life after death.
Lord grant me the peace and serenity to live with the things I cannot change.
Lord grant me the courage to change the things I can
And the wisdom to know the difference.
