    This came at just the right time for me. For the past 4 years I was dating a Muslim man in hopes of getting married to him. I was so in love. Prior to this I hadn’t known any Muslim people and he taught me a lot about the faith, I was already dressing modestly and a lot of my values aligned with traditional Muslim values anyway so I planned on taking my shahada soon and becoming a revert to officially marry him. About a month ago I figured out he had a wife and kids back in his home country. I was so devastated. I’ve been so bitter and angry but now I can accept he just wasn’t the right person for me and there is someone else out there who will appreciate me. I don’t know how I’ll find this person but I trust Allah will guide me. Thank you ladies! I have a lot to think about as I go on my journey.

      I'm sorry you went through all these. I'm glad you did not allow it to affect your belief. Some wrong people come into our life for a right reason we can't see immediately. They come and shape us into the right mode for the right person to be able to come into our lives. I hope I make sense. Move on and stay firm. One day you will look back and understand why Allah allowed this to happen. I believe it will end in smile in sha Allah. Stay strong.

    The childhood trauma and healing questions are so so so important. Forget "What's your favorite color?" and get in deep conversations instead. Be attentive to how the potential spouse behave with their parents, friends, strangers. Notice how they react when they are presented with a problem or resistance. Do they communicate efficiently? Do they close down and give you the silence treatment? Do they pay attention to your opinions, values...
    Emotional intelligence is something I wish I was taught before getting married and I would have looked for in my partner.
    Take your time to ask those questions. Look for actions that show congruency between words and behavior. ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS.

      Let us point out what the Qur'anic verses on polygamy actually say: "If you fear that you shall not be able to deal justly with the orphans, marry women of your choice, two or three, or four; but if you fear that you shall not be able to deal justly (with them) then only one." (Al-Nisa', 4:3)
      A subsequent verse states: "You are never able to be fair and just between women even if that were your ardent desire." (Al-Nisa', 4:129)
      It is clear from this verse that:
      First, the Qur'an does not give men the blanket right to have more than one wife. Polygamy is not a right, but a responsibility to ensure social justice for orphans. What Allah has granted is in fact a restriction on an existing practice of that time when men could marry as many wives as they wanted.
      Second, because polygamy is not a right, Allah placed conditions on its practice. There is an overriding concern for justice in this short verse, and conditions are set to ensure that justice is done.
      Condition A: Polygyny is permitted within the context of war and orphans. It is permitted only if the men fear they would not be able to deal justly with the orphans.
      Condition B: The man who wants to be polygynous must have the capacity to be fair and just to all his wives. The verse is a call for just conduct towards women, not a right for men to fulfill their alleged lustful desires or their egos. And just treatment here means more than a man's financial capacity to support more than one wife: He must be fair in all ways, including in the time, support, and companionship he provides to his wives and children.
      Condition C: If the man fears he cannot deal justly with all his wives, then Allah advocates that he should marry only one as this will ensure equality. This is explicitly stated in the verse

    The best Dua to make for a spouse, at least in my opinion, ask Allah to send you someone that You NEED! What I have learned from my experiences is that many times what we think we want turns out to be things we despise. Only Allah knows you best, so who better to ask than The One who created you. Like they say, be careful what you ask for!

    One of my greatest fear is not finding a man to get married to, but getting married to the man I really desire, rather than settling for what I see for certain reasons. In the light of this fear, sometimes I wonder If what I want is too much and I'd consider lowering it. Another time, I'd believe what I want exists, I'm just yet to get it.😌

This is very important topic but let me add this ; a year back when I was in my last year of the university in a certain period the lecturer told us " I know you all have someone in your mind that you would love to marry, but that kind of person only exists in your mind and hearts . You need to give up something , you need to make the list of the qualities you look for in women less otherwise you people will be single forever ". After one year I came to know that everyone of us has to give up something in order to marry.

      Sometimes disillusionment is the reality of your circumstances, it's not about seeking/looking for a husband but possibly that there isn't anyone out there e.g.age, family circumstances, physical conditions, it would be nice to have a talk about for women who have to come to terms with life as a single person/parent.

    Questions on my list:
    - What do you think my greatest challenge would be in being married to you? Personality traits/habits that could pose as problems in marriage.
    - Do you tend to adapt to those around you or do you stay the same?
    - How do you and your family spend the weekends?
    -If you had 10 hours free today what would you do?
    -Do you think the world is a bad place?
    -How do you deal with conflict? Are you a confronter or avoider? Problem solving first or understanding first?
    ****IMPORTANT****
    Please don't think you need to ask any of these questions in a row... Take time! You must take time to know each other. Don't judge on answers rather on patterns. Patterns of language and behaviour. Remember that communication is not only limited to words.
    Tip: A person once sent me his own answers to the questions he asked me. It was weird at first but it was so helpful to catch patterns of thoughts by reading all that.
    We're always looking at a gazillion things when communicating. I'm just urging you to be aware of that.

      For example, let's take the question 'Do you tend to adapt to those around you or do you stay the same?'
      Possible answers are 1) adapts or 2) stays the same
      What does it tell about the person if he adapts?
      What does it tell about the person if he stays the same?
      I understand that it would be a burden to type the answers and what they mean for each question but I would love it if you told me the things you know.

      Let us point out what the Qur'anic verses on polygamy actually say: "If you fear that you shall not be able to deal justly with the orphans, marry women of your choice, two or three, or four; but if you fear that you shall not be able to deal justly (with them) then only one." (Al-Nisa', 4:3)
      A subsequent verse states: "You are never able to be fair and just between women even if that were your ardent desire." (Al-Nisa', 4:129)
      It is clear from this verse that:
      First, the Qur'an does not give men the blanket right to have more than one wife. Polygamy is not a right, but a responsibility to ensure social justice for orphans. What Allah has granted is in fact a restriction on an existing practice of that time when men could marry as many wives as they wanted.
      Second, because polygamy is not a right, Allah placed conditions on its practice. There is an overriding concern for justice in this short verse, and conditions are set to ensure that justice is done.
      Condition A: Polygyny is permitted within the context of war and orphans. It is permitted only if the men fear they would not be able to deal justly with the orphans.
      Condition B: The man who wants to be polygynous must have the capacity to be fair and just to all his wives. The verse is a call for just conduct towards women, not a right for men to fulfill their alleged lustful desires or their egos. And just treatment here means more than a man's financial capacity to support more than one wife: He must be fair in all ways, including in the time, support, and companionship he provides to his wives and children.
      Condition C: If the man fears he cannot deal justly with all his wives, then Allah advocates that he should marry only one as this will ensure equality. This is explicitly stated in the verse

    An important question is how do they communicate and deal with conflicts, and not just conflicts, differences of opinions or if someone does something that doesn't sit right and match with them, does it turn in to a conflict? Does the other person have to give up and not repeat that thing again? Or are they willing to compromise and be fair that if the thing isn't something bad as in morally or sinful then the other person is entitled to not give that up, how would they even approach the conversation, would they think before they approached it or just go right in, this is all really crucial in my opinion because a couple in love could be completely incompatible and unable to stay around each other from a difference in resolution and communication strategies

    If they hold resentment for their family and haven’t evolved out of their childhood wounds with maturity and awareness they’re not going to be the best husband, father, son in law or brother in law for you and your family.

I was married and divorced because major issues arose and I realised I was very naive when I was choosing a husband. I definitely agree that it's important to take a hard look at your own issues and deal with them first before finding someone. unfortunately many of us will have to learn the hard way.
    Alhamdulilah the silver lining in my situation is that I didn't wait to have kids. Nothing ties me to him. One of the main reasons I ask for a divorce is that I could see he would be an inadequent parent. He was a very lost person. May Allah guide us all. Ameen.

    A successful marriage requires a deep understanding of change management. When two different people decide to marry it takes time to align your divergent approach to life. It will be rocky, there will be hesitation to change past behavior (especially by the one who's less on the Deen) but once the alignment happens it's pure bliss. It can take up to 5 years to get there.

Having said that, I would like to suggest the next possible topic to cover in the upcoming episodes, that is either the topic of how the wedding night should be and how it can be practiced according to the sunnah as unfortunately many etiquettes have sadly been forgotten around this area, or secondly, the topic of how to balance love and worship in terms of not being obsessed with your spouse which can lead to shirk!

    This was great. What I also think is that it is really important to be real, which I guess is hard going into a first time marriage especially. I've found that when two people are often in love prior to the marriage, the women quite often agree to live with their in-laws for ever and ever which is a very big commitment to make. This can and does work for many, but equally no one truly knows how living with their spouse will be, let alone all of their family! This can be a huge 'deal breaker' later on in the marriage...
