Looking for the Perfect Woman
… a Mulla Nasruddin Tale
One afternoon, Nasruddin and his friend were sitting in a cafe, drinking tea and talking about life and love. His friend asked: “How come you never married?”
“Well,” said Nasruddin, “to tell you the truth, I spent my youth looking for the perfect woman. In Cairo I met a beautiful and intelligent woman, but she was unkind. Then in Baghdad, I met a woman who was a wonderful and generous soul, but we had no common interests. One woman after another would seem just right, but there would always be something missing. Then, one day, I met her. Beautiful, intelligent, generous and kind. We had very much in common. In fact, she was perfect!”
“What happened?” asked Nasruddin’s friend, “Why didn’t you marry her?”
Nasruddin sipped his tea reflectively. “Well,” he replied, “it’s really the sad story of my life…. It seemed she was looking for the perfect man…

lol subhanallah
junadB..well exactly , theres no such thing as perfect otherwise being on this earth wouldnt be a test ! the main purpose of marriage is to draw nearer to Allah together, and to protect one another ... completing half the deen... if a person thinks its gonna be completed before ('perfect') then that person needs to really reflect on that hadeeth.
There is no such thing as a perfect husband or wife. Or even a perfect human being. Allah is perfect.
I thought he was going to reply "She's already married".... LOL
