    Rejected for dark complexion (OP)


    Asalamwalekum,

    Today i wanted to share something thats been bothering me a lot lately.

    I am constantly reminded by all the suitors that I am not good enough coz I have brown/golden complexion.

    Although I am very similar to my elder sisters in terms of features but I am a little darker in complexion when compared to them. My sisters have never had any issue with proposals and have got married AlhamdulliAllah.

    So I have done my masters and I earn more than what most of the proposals ( through some marriage consultants )
    are sent. I am passionate about cooking and very particular cleanliness. Most important of all i offer namaz 5 times a day and read Quran (though my Arabic is not that great) .

    So the point I am trying to make is though I have got some qualities in me why is it that I am still not preferred by anyone. It makes me feel unwanted and not being worthy of any happiness.

    When i was in college a lot of other faith people walked up to me to compliment me . I was complimented for a pretty face and for looking a lot younger than my actual age.

    Now that my mom and brother have started looking for matches I am rejected almost all the time. Sometimes someone rejects by saying she is not fair and some reject by saying she is not tall enough. Once a lady rolled up her sleeves to tell my mom that she is looking for someone who is as fair as her arm. I felt humiliated in front of everyone.

    My question if Allah has chosen this body and complexion for me then why I am being insulted and humiliated . Nobody even tries to know the qualities that i have and rejects me just coz of my complexion.

    Allah says in Quran that we were made different so that we could be recognised then why all the difference.

    Sadly the only discrimination I see coming is from Muslims not people of other faith.

    I feel that I am not worthy of happiness and should give up on the idea of marriage (live all alone).

    It is time I seek cure with the Quran. Cuz I’ve been fighting the waswass for almost 6 months. Lol. Pathetic of me lol.
    I keep telling myself Islam is pure monotheism, worship only Allah, etc. Seems like I haven’t been cured yet.

    All that waswass has gotten to me.

    Anyways, I know what to do, In shaa' Allah, what about you?
    Actually that soap works with rough dry skin too, it says in the description in that link

    It's not about backbiting, I just want to know the reason genuinely. He was a very sincere person and I would really like reading his advices and posts.

    وعليكم السلام ورحمة الله وبركاته sister,

    We don’t usually like to mention reasons for people’s bans in public. The brother may have certainly been sincere and if he wants to, he can contact us through email or Helpdesk to discuss the reason for his ban.

    This is the specific company that was recommended for manuka honey soap on another forum, but other companies may make it too.
    ma shaa Allah you know so much about everything in both forums

    May Allah grant the sister pious husband.

    And may He also grant you pious wife aswell. Try be patient. Allah knows what is best for you. Marriage is only decreed by Allah the Wise. No black is equal to white no white is equal to black and no Arab is equal to non arab and no non arab is equal to arab. Except who has most Taqwa . Allah knows best.

    Try to work hard on your Deen and good deeds may Allah grant u strength.

    I do believe Ahmed is a good brother and should be a given another chance. He did have good intentions and was nice. He should not be banned. Please so give him another chance
