I want to marry an Arab

[extempers]

Bismillah,

I want to marry an Arab cause I want to learn arabic and have my kids know it with ease. Plus I'm not a fan of Indian culture (although I do like the food).


And yes this is a response to another thread :P

[Peacenik]

Lol !

Hey, no discrimination please ;)

[bint]

lol are you indian?

your not a fan of the culture or the people?

[Irfan GBH]

lol are you indian?

your not a fan of the culture or the people?

Be very carefull how you answer bint's question...

[turquoise]

Salaam,

Surely there's a less extreme way to achieve that...

[OBL]

that's a stupid reason to wanna marry someone. Did'nt prophet s.a.w say to marry someone for their deen, not lineage, beauty,wealth, or background.

[Astraeus]

Bismillah,

And yes this is a response to another thread :P

You mean the other thread that was closed because it bordered on racism? :confused:

Bismillah,
I'm not a fan of certain aspects. The bollywood obsession is one thing :P

Actually, my reason is deen. I want to learn arabic and my kids so we can understand the Qur'an better. Of course this isn't a categorical statement of ANY Arab, but I'd prefer an arabic speaking Muslim.

Note: This is probably just a temporary preference. I'm stupid like that.

Defend the Arabs I think :P

Divorce and polygamy rate is high within Arabs. Not cool if you’re a women, though the women seem quite adapt to it. :torture:

[Kal-El]

Trust me, you shouldn't dismiss a person because of the stereotype. At one point, I would have cried whilst taking Paracetamol at the idea of marrying a Somali girl.

Bismillah,

Polygamy practiced correctly shouldn't be expressed as a bad thing, although that's not something I would do.

Divorce rate isn't high among the asian community, but I don't want a docile and fragile wife. I want someone that will yell back lol

now come on bro.. tell us reall reason for wwanting to marry arab ;)

Bismillah,

Being of Indian descent living in a predominately white country, the concept of beauty is all based on caucasians and I'd be lying if I said I didn't want to marry a caucasian sometimes.

But that's just one part. I don't know what I want.

I need to get married soon lol. But that requires finishing school and getting a job, blah :(

[Joha]

is this thread any different to the one in the other section where the bro didnt wana marry sisters of his own ethnicity?

he's fallen for the stereotypes of Syrian and Lebanese women :D

:smack: come on people, do something more worthwhile with your time...once you get married, discuss this with your wife, or husband.

Honest advice for you: finish school, go to university. Get yourself a job, do some travellin. Broaden your horizons, then worry about this topic. Don't make a decision now that you will regret later.

OH and always wear sunscreen

Good for you.. May Allah(swt) bless you with a fluent, eloquent pious wife, who'll teach your kids fab arabic :D

I think it's annoying when people start bashing others just because they have certain preferences on what culture/nationality etc they'd like their spouse to come from.. each to their own, we're not here to be marriage-preference-police! ..if you don't wanna marry an Indian, by all means don't.. if you want to marry an Arab, may you find a fab one!

:up:

[JayC]

as salaam alaykum,

alot of prejudice these days is the problem. and here even though we dont realise it there is some racism.

you have good and bad muslims everywhere. and you have pretty and ugly people in all ethnic backgrounds. i have seen some arabs... who i thought were xtian arabs at first impression... in the same way sometimes the indian sisters get assumed for being a sikh/hindu going by the way they appear.
i have seen sisters from all backgrounds in so much foundation, i could scrape it off with a chisel. i have seen mashAllah beautful sisters, inner and out, from various ethnicities.

as for indian women who are not cultural... look at how many practicing sisters are trying to get away from that. lets not disadvantage them with an assumption like this.
i am indian. this is what Allah swt chose for me. i like the good things from all cultures.
[btw bollywood seems to be quite popular with alot of arabs i have bumped into]

i got into an argument with an arab brother about 5 years ago. when he said his son can marry a muslimah from anywhere. but his daughter can only marry an arab men. deen was out of the question.
as for my people i am so tired of the "has to be from my village" thing. lets move on please, and think of the people who are looking to get married. not the tribal mentality that is so jahil.

so long as they are pleasing to your eye and the deen is strong [which is hard to find these days] then what matter does the ethnic background matter?

[Ibn Khattab]

its all about the ones from Najd :outta:

[Songbird]

Yeah, it beggars belief why I am even reading, let alone posting on this inane thread, but allow me to state the bleeding obvious which has eluded all and sundry: not every Arab can comprehend Arabic let alone write in Fushah.

"I want to marry an Arab woman so that she will be able to teach the kids Arabic and they'll all go on to read and write fluently and become Hafiz/a of the Qur'an and we'll all live happily ever, yaaaaaaaay!"

Now back to you Cinderella.

[LastFriday]

I want to marry a Polish Muslimah who's mother is from India and father from Korea. She must wear a Niqaab, Gloves, Eye Mesh, and an Umbrella. She must know how to cook South American gorditaas. She must know Arabic, Polish, Hindi, Korean, and Spanish so that our kids learn a variety of dialects in order to give Dawah. It would be a plus if she can be 5'11 and weigh 125 lbs.



Now back to you Cinderella.

Look who it is...:outta:

[perfectpearl]

wohhooo whoooh some comments here are real shocker. I think you guys should slow down a bit and just cool off or something because it seems like some people have some issues with arabs. :rubeyes:

As for you marrying an arab, thats great- they are good wives and most would defienlty teach your children arabic. Its kinda hard not knowing arabic when you are arab. I must warn you though, not lots of arabs agree into marrying asians. Arabs usually marry arabs unless shes a second wife for a arab man or shes a widowed arab or something. Its very hard for an arab to accept his daughter to marry a non-arab man. All arabs can tell you that. A few arabs though are cool with that. I hope you find one of those and good luck.

Divorce and polygamy rate is high within Arabs. Not cool if you’re a women, though the women seem quite adapt to it. :torture:

Thats no reason not marry an arab women and thats not true.

"you are not married if you are not married to an Egyptian woman"

-- Imam Shafi'i

i agree :o

lol he said that? No wonder lots of egyptains follow him :p

you said you dislike the bollywood obsession, majority of the arabs are well into their bollywood films AND music, im not joking.

Not too sure about it. I think most arabs actually pretend that there interested and make fun of bollywood within each other. Iv done that loads of times.

there are religious arabs and non religious arabs. Thats true for most nations.

I call that being jealous and then trying to laugh it off in order to make them selves feel better and happy.

Now back to you Cinderella.

( :salams sister loong time ;) hope ur keeping well insha Allah ) yep i was thinking that when i saw this thread title again i know many arabs who dont know fushah at all, they have no clue what many words mean but only speak their local dialect. its only those who have been educated in it, who know.

[bint]

Perfect pearl you live in Egypt right? well I spend alot of time in Dubai and Saudi and met arabs that genuinely are very in touch with their bollywood media. It cant be that theyd be laughing about it because they have watched more films than me, and are more updated on music than I am. Not to mention the concerts they attend or arabs at the first viewing of a released film and theres 75% of em whereas other nationalities there are only abou 25%, not many indians also.

[zynah]

:salams

Just stop it with these threads.

[Ibnkuldun]

Quite a few Arabs love bollywood. I know it is a bit of generalisation but that global market data shows that there is a huge indian movie market in the arab world. (Can't be asked finding the data, but if you google you'll find)

Also, on my travels in egypt, I took a local bus (totally illegal) and kinda got lost. My only saving grace was that I found a local eating place, that was showing an Amita Bachan movie. Basically I spoke to them in Urdu, very slowly and they helped me out.

Oh and they kept calling me Amita Bachan too. I'm tall, dark...i guess..

[Kubs]

Stupid thread.

If you want to marry an Arab...go marry an Arab. Why do you have to publically state it in a forum? It's bound to cause arguments. Who watches the latest Bollywood movies and who doesn't? Which race is the better looking and which isn't? WHO CARES?!

There's good and bad in every race. I accept that people have different preferences....but surely you shouldn't limit your options. Be a little open minded and broaden your horizons....accept other cultures...other languages.....and other lifestyles.

salam , i think you can marry who ever you want to marry that is upto you .. but dont you think it would be better to say i want to inshallah marry of somebody with taqwa (piety),somebody of the deen and who ever allah swt decideds that to be then i am happy with that or instead of saying i want to marry an arab maybe it would be better to say ,oh ya rabb oh allah you are the most great ,you are the most high and you know my heart ,you know my feeling,and you know my inner desire ,even myself i do not know the good things for me this is why i pray to you this is why i ask you to guide me in my life to give me the good things to help me make the good decisions ,me myself i do not know ,so i ask you ya RABBI to deliver to me my life partner and may you make him\her good for me and good for my religion .. be careful what you ask for dua is powerful and words can be powerful ... always think for your religion 1st and always ask allah for the good things 1st....

takabbal Allah neyatuka...if ur intention is khayr,so ur consequense wll be khayr,inshAllah
in my country,there are lots of insubstantial rumors about arabs,like poligamy etc.when i explained my thoughts about marriage arabs to my family or relatives or friends,they were so surprised and didnt aggree with me also some of them were very angry and sorry about how i could rely on arabs for maariage and why i refused all those marriage offers by ours...i only thought my scholar would be my husband to teach me all shareah knowledge and of course to live in my daar al-Islam with my husband if Allah makes it khayr of course...i saw syria(i was there for these previous 3 months for my study) and how motadayyen moslems they are,alhamdulillah and now as i recognised them between them,i am sure how i was right to rely on them inshAllah...when i mention to my family etc. about them,they aggree with me by day by...of course all moslems are equal except taqwaa but for taqwaa,it is in the need of shareah...
Allah knows the best...wassalam

[bint]

can you all please just leave this person alone, its not a stupid thread.
thers a discussion going on. no arguments.
there are loads of stupid threads, and those should be scrapped.

[Ebony]

Definitely wear sunscreen.

Bismillah,

Polygamy practiced correctly shouldn't be expressed as a bad thing, although that's not something I would do.

u r 1st man to say this n i must thank you:up::D

[perfectpearl]

Trust me. They are defiantly not. We think those movies are silly. Our Indians friends know that we make fun of it..they join in at times too. Its just too "jolly" for us.

Perfect pearl you live in Egypt right? well I spend alot of time in Dubai and Saudi and met arabs that genuinely are very in touch with their bollywood media. It cant be that theyd be laughing about it because they have watched more films than me, and are more updated on music than I am.

I dont live in Egypt. I live in the US where there are very diverse arabs. I know Arabs from egypt, Jordan, Palestine, Syria, Lebanon, q8, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Algeria, Tunisia and we all hang out together all the time. No doubt Dubai and Sou3deah have loads of influence from the Indians; as there are many Indians works in those countries, so i wouldn't be too surprised if they did watch bollywood. The other countries that dont have much Indians dont like bollywood. Personally that arabs I hang out with, we all thing its very silly their dances and stuff.

[sada]

bismillahi taalaa,assalamualaikum...
if the intention is khayr,so the consequence is khayr,inshAllah...
i agree with the marriage arab but of course for his shareah knowledge,motadayyen life and taqwa...in my country,there are lots of insubstantial rumors about arabs like polygami etc.when i mentioned my thoughts to my family,friends about marriage arabs,yeah lots of them were surprised and troubled about how i could rely on them so much!but in these previous 3 months,i was in syria and alhamdulillah i realised how i was right about them and now i persuaded my family and friends who were always angry with me why i refused all those marriage offers from ours...
especially women must care of their husbands shoul be their scholars...it is the best way to learn shareah and live of course...but in all side,only Allah azza wa jalla knows the khayr...

[Jilbabi]

this al seems a bit to streotypical to me...

wot wud u do.. if the arab gal has the exact same mentality as an indian gal?

would you stil want2 marry her??... :scratch:

[Bero Blue]

SALAM ALYKUM

all of you are putting replys as you see the topic from your owen view ,
the dissesion of marrige is by the owen person's choice no one alse.

if he wants his cousin , then be it . if he wants Amarican , Indian , Arab or Egyption so whats wrong ?

his choice doesn't make Arab girls ANGELS ! it only show his own desires !

Bro, my cousin married a British Gentelman , you know what was his demands ? only ( to learn Arabic and keep my kids in any Arabic country near the country of Isalm) and his mother's friend is married to a Saudi man asked my causin for him and every thing went perfectly, yet she is prettier than him but beauty isn't the most important thing in marriges , i visited her last March and Subhan Allah they way they understand each other as if they grow up in the same place ! comunicating and being respected of both him and her . in our family I call this the most perfect marrige ever happen ( after my parent's:up: ) .
so why not ? wishing you all the best to achive your owen good goals.
its better if you finish school first and have a job but still you can keep your hopes , pray every night Allah will choose you the best lady who can Understand you and build a good family.

Take Care,
Bero

[Chained_Water]

He said he wants to marry an Arab girl so she can teach his kids arabic.. one would assume he'd want to marry then a practising, educated arab sister who's actually good with arabic :p

And if he does, so what.. let people marry who they want!

If someone wants to marry a Spanish girl, an English girl, a Pakistani girl.. good for them.. who is anyone else to object to their preference!

We all know the advice about marrying for deen, and the other things women are married for.. if the more important considerations are met, and the wisdom of Rasool Allah(saw)'s advice is followed, after that it doesn't really matter what anyone else thinks.. marry who you want.

[Mumtaz]

Assalamu alaikum.
Sis Chained water is right, its ur life and ur marriage if u like arab women then Alhamdulilh good for u marry one.

[extempers]

Bismillah,

The funny thing is I said "right now" and that this is probably temporary.

Tomorrow I'll probably go back to desi or maybe European.

Lol I just think it would be funny to marry someone with an aussie, british or irish accen.

[PiElle2]

easy, marry an arabic language teacher... :up:

[Songbird]

No, the best thing for him would be to continue living with his mother. Indefinitely.
