In Islam can a Disabled/Handicapped marry ?

Hamza Asadullah said:
Allah has made you special sis. Always remember that. He chose you and gave you such a condition so that he may bring you closer to him. He chose you as his special slave so grab this opportunity and strive to be the closest to him. Entrust ALL your affairs with Allah. Put ALL your reliance in him and know that he will NEVER let you down. He will give you peace and contentment in your heart that NO money or riches can buy. He will give you the sweetness of imaan that people would wage wars over if they knew about it.

May Allah give you the best of this world and the next. Ameen

JazakAllah khayr for your reply Brother. I am very content regarding my illness, al hamdulillah. I am not feeling hard done by in any way at all. I never have felt I am being punished. Far from it, I thank Allah for His mercy to purify me of my sins in this world, and I don't like it when people make dua for my well being. I see it as losing a great source expiation of my sins. I don't know why I come across like I am complaining when I am not using words to that effect? To be truthful I avoid telling people that I feel very lucky and blessed in case they think I'm nuts. I think my brain works differently as I give information only for the purpose of explaining myself or my situation better, not as a means of making complaints, if that makes sense insha Allah.

HayyakAllah dear Brother. Ameen.

No sis you did not come across like you were complaining at all. I just felt like giving you words of encouragement so that you may feel a greater urge to get closer to Allah and view,your condition as a great blessing. I hope anyone reading who has a similar condition or any illness, trial or hardship feels,the sameway. It was also a reminder for me.

Feesabilillah.

Masha Allah, may Allah reward you highly Brother. Ameen. Our time on this earth will seem to us in the hereafter, like it was an hour or more. Then we should imagine ourselves looking back and see it like that while we are here. This short time of hardships will hardly register compared to eternity. Better we think of the time ahead insha Allah. May Allah makes us grateful and of the Sabiroon. Ameen



It will be, on the Day they see it, as though they had not remained [in the world] except for an afternoon or a morning thereof.[79:46]

So be patient, [O Muhammad], as were those of determination among the messengers and do not be impatient for them. It will be - on the Day they see that which they are promised - as though they had not remained [in the world] except an hour of a day. [This is] notification. And will [any] be destroyed except the defiantly disobedient people?[46:35]

In Islam any person who is sane can marry. It is only insanity which deems a person not fit to marry or fulfill the rights of marriage.

However if anyone has an illness, disability or learning difficulties then they would have to make it clear to a potential suitor before marriage takes place so they know what they are getting themselves into. The same applies if a person has a sexual problem or they can't have children.

So as long as you make it clear to a potential suitor and she accepts then thete are no issues in you marrying anyone.

And Allah knows best in all matters

No brother as long as the potential suitor accepts your disability, physical impairments and not being able to physically work and provide. In many Western countries those with disabilities are given financial benefits as I also have a close friend in a similar predicament and it can be difficult finding someone to accept such things but it is a test and Allah will reward those who patiently persevere for his pleasure beyond measure InshaAllah.
