View Full Version : Matrimony Forum!!!
since marriage is always a hot topic....
it's obvious many users feel that that there should be a matrimony forum on ummah... but there are also users that feel there should not be.
i just created this thread so we could get both points of view and discuss it!
so what do you think?

I'm not sure what you mean by matrimony forum. YOu mean bros hooking up with the sisters? If that's it, then no. However I WOULD liek to see maybe a forum about the ins and outs of how to go about getting married and the traditions, as I am getting married next year, Inshallah, and I have no clue what I need to do before then to get ready.

I put undecided but I guess its more to a NO. because we will just get free mixing in the name of marriage where people are just trying to chat everyone else up and maybe they dnt even have intention for marriage. In a way it may be useful 4 ppl sincere looking 4 marriage bt its hardly the only way 2 find someone. For marriage related topics, we use the lifestyle forum

but that approach has limitations... not everyone have the luxury of parent looking for someone they like, and a sister can't exactly go out and approach members of a community (probably a hayaa thing).

And as you know a male cannot approach a female and vicer versa so we need places like this to help the bro/sis. I mean if this is just as bad as born muslim then what is the luck of a revert?

If it was in a Muslim state then yes everythink would be ok as the leader of the state will get a single bro/sis to get married straight away but we dont have that in the western world.

bro, at the end salman said 'responsible members of the community'. That comes after the parents and really those are the people you go to if you have these 'backwards' parents.

I think it might be a good idea, would bring a new spin on discussions in the forum perhaps.
funny thing here, the girls are saying no but the guys are saying yes.
I'm abstaining here.
I think its a great idea.
It will give the members of this forum to openly engage their intentions of getting married.
I think its unfair to make any assumptions stating that most people on this forum could be socially unapproachable. Further, i think it would be incomprehensible to assume that a lot of the members here hide behind a combover, brown trousers and a 15" screen.
Let there be marriage talk.
Let there be a forum rich with debate of what marriage really entails.
Most of all, let the pathetic rose coloured glasses and utopic views regarding marriage be adequately addressed.
Thats what this new forum is for isnt it?
Serious discussion?

i really dont see a probem here, if "chatting up" or "free-mixing" takesplace, wouldnt it be the role of a mod for that forum to control, jsu like "chatting up" or "free-mixing" is controlled on this side?
as for being responsible, guidelines would obviously need to be set and rules etc and the rest of their actions are down to themselves and allah swt, personally the worries i have seen conveyed on this thread, can easily happen on THIS side of the forum and sometimes HAVE happened from what i have seen, the only difference being that the intention would be to help someone get a wife or hubbie in the matrimony forum, i.e complete half their deen, not mentioning again the rewards in that.
Wats wrong with promoting HALAL relationships, if 2 people like each other, want to marry each other, they need to get the parents involved obviously asap.
P.S. wen i mentiond mod, i wasnt putting myself forward for this role, so dont get any ideas :p

no, im assumed its not for discussions,i mean we can do that here cant we?
i visualize (:D ) people starting a thread for themselves, putting like a little profile with details about themselves, what kinda hubbie/wife they are looking for (not personal details ect) and then if someone is interested in they can maybe PM the person?

Hehe ok personally, I think it is a good 'idea' in regards to helping those who may not any other way in which to approach the situation etc
BUT I think that is where it stop. At an idea. To put it into practise would open it up to a lot of abuse and if something was to happen ie: users exchaging personal info, and something untoward happening to one of them, then we would be guilty of providing the platform upon which it happened? Plus there could be an exchange of personal info and it could be abused by the other party. Or people contacting one another 'just for fun' with no serious intention in mind?
Also, I think the users Ummah has at the moment, make up a majority of younger users, who, may have a strong urge to marry, but need to explore all their other opportunities before turning to the web? I'm sure there are avenues they can pursue though the family, friends, etc before deciding that the option they have left now is to look somewhere here?
Plus, no offence to teenagers since I was one too a long time ago :D you won't have those strong urges and hormones for the rest of your life lol -- so be patient and the best advice is make du'a to Allah (swt) because essentially nothing happens but with His permission!
ANYWHO, lecture over. :rubeyes:

Hmm yes with the teenagers a major problem is that they "want to get married" so they may contact each other with the intention of "marriage" but they won't either of them tell their parents or make any real plans 4 marriage, and after all they are like 13 and 14 years so obv their parents will not take it serious, but still they might say "we are talking cos we wna get married" aiming 2 marry each other after like 8 years or 5 years, or even one year but still. In this case maybe they are just fooling themselves a bit because they will kind of fall into the boyfriend and girlfriend mistake :S Thats an easy mistake to do so we shud try 2 help ppl 2 avoid it not help them to achieve the mistake.

I personally do not think that it is a good idea. Of course there are many people who wish to marry but at the end of the day this method is far too complicated and can even be dangerous. I think the cons outweigh the pros in this case. It is far better to let things go through the parents. It saves alot of hassle and alot of haram in some cases. Anyway those are my personal thoughts. It is difficult to find the right kind of spouse nowadays.. or so it seems..

The marriage forum would be bliss fior the desperados on ummah and there are quite a few who just sign on for this purpose alone, the stupid, blunt ones get banned immediately whilst the sly ones twist things.
I can understand not everyones parents are as open minded in finding their offspring partners etc but imagine the shock parents would have in discovering a marriage forum exists on ummah- it will most likely be abused anyways - and who says the guys on ummah are genuine and the sisters are as well?
SOme sister might post 'looking for br who has [enter sister's weird criteria here]' and gets loads of offers through PM- she then thinks hmmm which one shall i pick. Some get rejected and become bitter and go beserk (it could happen!! @) )
Hey i know what we can call it though!

many sisters and brothers have found spouses through ummah and their parents have been fine about it.
Every type of system tends to get abused, good and bad is in everything, i think with the right restrictions, mointoring etc it should be ok.
No one is forcing anyone to sign up when people do they will know what their getting themselvs into

Then they can go to a respectable marriage matrimonial website with a very high success rate- there are loads out there and they know the ins and outs. Is ummah forums gonna emply professional people which spend their entire day looking for matches based ones criteria etc? Don't think so, even if they had the money they might as well use it for Q&A session with a knowledgable Scholar who comes every week.
Most people think this is a kewl idea because it will be 'oh so kewl and oh so funny to see who matches with whom' :rolleyes: But the serious ones approach ina different way with jokes aside.

matching two people together is a blessesd thing, people get to know one another indirectly over ummah, in fact is a good place to start.
This who thing its a 'kewl idea' are immature some poeple dont have the right means to get married and this is the next best thing.
I knw many people whove married off ummah but have kept quiet about it theres more then we think, it might not be the best idea, but its just something worth considering.

i agree, there are probably people on here who meet freely with non-mehrams jus for fun or as "friends" already, nobody is stopping that or bothered about it, wen here we are tryign to give brothers and sisters a halal way of making a good life and earning great rewards inshallah . Ummah would have good intentions in starting this up and the rest is between allah swt and the individuals. Guidelines jus need to be clear thats all from an islamic viewpoint.

well i hope the voting doesnt play to much of a big role in ummah's decision to do this or not but from an islamic viewpoint and wat is best for our brothers and sisters, i mean this isnt a "democratic election", next thing u know ,we'll be having a "recount" :p
Good point.
I don't know who would take responsibility for this thing though (seems a big one too). Good idea though (to make it halal etc) but it would need to be well run if it's to be done 'properly'.

:D LOL @ counting again.
Of course from the Islamic viewpoint it is nice and yes there are people who troubles finding spouses but if you like someone on ummah, think they would compliment your Deen, why not ask some head sister/brother or someone who knows both of you to approach the person.
Imagine the scenario:
You got a forum where newbies will come in- some are genuine, some aren't. How do you deduce.
A well known member posts 'I'm looking' etc he/she gets a few offers, hows he/she gonna deduce which one to pick? whose gonna get rejected.
What if there was a sister genuinely looking and got rejected a few times but different brs and some people of the forum knew about it, how would that make her feel?
And most importantly are people genuine, this isn't a 'people online are fakers' but whose to say they really do want to get married? Of course you can ask their friends on ummah but how would parents feel knowing you didn't involve them in one of the biggest steps of your life etc.

sis all this would happen on the most successful of matrimoinal wedding sites, as for everyone knowing about bros or sisters being rejected, i completely understand , and this is where islamic etiquette and decency as a muslim needs to come in, these things would need to be outlined from the outset of the section.

Exactly.
And lol @ sis Ebony's mental analysis :p.... it's prob spot on . If one can't gets rejected then they can simply bounce off the matrimonial website walls @)
If people were genuine it would work, yes you can't always get genuine people but then ummah has it's fair share of deceivers.

If people want to do it, they'll do it regardless of their being a matrimony forum..
but those people who are genuinely looking may find it helpful..
I dunno.. like someone mentioned especially if they dnt have parents..

If people want to do it, they'll do it regardless of their being a matrimony forum..
but those people who are genuinely looking may find it helpful..
I dunno.. like someone mentioned especially if they dnt have parents..
If two people meet on the forum and would like to get married, or someone is looking to get married wants to know if anyone knows a bro/sis then they can do so by contacting bro/sis not the actual person themselves.
And once they have found someone they should go to their parents and arrange a meet-up where they will dicuss whatever you discuss in these meeting. (age, occupation etc) Not making a thread and sharing personal info across the net and not knowing whether the other person could be serious or not.
This is my point, some people just want a laugh and will make it into a joke. If it were to go ahead, i give it 2 weeks before they close it.

I voted yes, not because I think it should be a meeting place for potential marriage partners, but because it would be nice to know the customs of Muslim marriages. I am getting married in Feb. 2007 to a wonderful Egyptian Muslim; I am American; I will be moving to Egypt. Talk about culture shock!!! It would be nice to get advice on what is expected of me in my new role as Muslim wife living in Egypt.

So true . . .
"love" has lost its value these days. . . .
Ppl.. fall in love every day... and its bcome so damn easy for Girls & Guys to change their partners.. its SiCk!
one day.. they are dreamin about spending their whole lives with this girl/guy..
next day... "oh it wus jus infatuation" !!
and Marriage . . . ppl'av made a "khel" outta it . . .
In Saudi Arabia.. esp among the Saudis.. divorce is bcomin so common..
any little problem... or misunderstanding... the family wil b demandin divorce..
thats so disspointin..
and its not even necessary that probs/misundrstndings shud b between hubby/wifey.. even if both in-laws aint Compatible.. ..!
the true ever lasting love between husband and wife... is rarely found these days . ! ..
