Advice please

Thanks for your input. you made some very good points that I will definitely act on (although I do not particularly wish to get married right away to any random girl who is willing and able) I will definitely try use the tips on making dua you mentioned..

one thing you stated in # 4 was that not to ask for forgiveness of major sins as it will get in the way...

what do you mean by that? usually when I ask for something or make dua that something goes right I also make dua for forgiveness of my sins be it major or minor...

No one is telling you to get married to any random girl but that she should have piety and good character.

What I meant in point 4 in the article is to leave or abstain from commiting major sins as they prevent dua from being accepted.

Hope that clarifies things.

hey, thanks for all your advice.

since we have begun talking about marriage I think now would be a good time to bring up the apperant issue:

In these modern times, particularialy in the west, it has become a custom to marry once the man is well into there career or has established them selves financially.. not only does ones own family prefer this but the daughters parents of who is getting married also prefer that the man be well of before being married..

as a result, a problem arises because although you may want to marry early and protect your self, it may not be realistically feasible...
so how do we overcome this obstacle?

Welcome to my world :hmm: everywhere you go "He's still young wait till he's finished education and has a job" I don't know what happened to parents trying to protect their children from haraam by making marriage easy. The problem with this mentality is people often fall into haram relationships as a result of their need for a partner, :hmm: If I'm ever blessed with kids I plan to get them married off by 20 providing they want to, I'll even support them financially inshaAllah.
