wa alaikum aslaam

ebay? well thats a new one...:rubeyes:


bro its the usual way, tell your friends and family to keep an eye out for u, tell your local masjid imam that u want help in finding someone, and also, if it helps, there are marriage events that u can go to with your family (or one member of your family) and meet potential wife?

maybe you could ask help from family/relatives/friends who may use their contacts to let you know of any suitable muslimahs for you. Or your local Imaam, he probably knows many families and can provide good references :)

You can find a wife in your neighbourhood (in da hood), at your place of study or place of work. Your friends could help you, and perhaps the imam of your local masjid too.

well, not really. It's like any job application (:D), you've got to show who you are - they're not going to second guess are they? (within limits of course)

And if you want to attract the best (which I guess you would want to do), you've got to stand out. It's a competition!

I don't think the sisters are competing one another, they will mostly have different preferences in relation to one another...they are merely looking for their life partners.

May the be granted their partners soon insha'Allaah, Ameen.

She said either you get married to her or you get married to no one! So I am stuck, i dont think I will be able to find myself a girl who is willing to be with me while knowing my mum is against it (altho I dont need a mehram to get married) SO HELP!!

But you're right sis, it's not a competition.

Mujib, if you really don't like her (the girl, not your mother), say so, explain and be firm. InshaAllah your family will understand. And if it all goes badly, don't worry, it's not as if they can keep you from marrying once you've grown up.

So, they post their CVs in the website and then meet in the mosque. Do they meet individually or in group and is it controlled by the imam of the mosque or what?
