Ways For Seeking A Partner For Single Muslims

By John Collins


Sharing your life with someone you love and cherish brings happiness and joy to your life. In Islam marriage is viewed as an act of faith. However, for many single Muslims, it is a hard task to find someone who can support you in fulfilling this purpose. This is because of obvious reasons like few people of the opposite sex. Here are few things to help in finding a partner.

Show respect. Be a respectful person. Let it be seen in how you respond, interrupt and listen to your partner talk. Do not despise someone even when you know for sure they are not your type. If you are meeting with them, be lively in every conversation and get to know them. Compliment on their looks and dressing if possible. Make them feel good about themselves.

Be active in various activities. Do not just sit at home and wait for a partner to come knocking at your door. Get involved. Participate in volunteer work in the community. That way you will meet people your age and interact with them at a personal level. Somebody in that group might fall for you, be open to talk with them and get to know each other better.

Avoid being hasty. Take as much time as you can in examining a potential partner. Marriage is not something that you can get into with anyone. Careful consideration is to be done before committing to life in marriage, or things could go wrong for you. Repairing that damage can be almost impossible. So be patient and get the right person.

Involve your parents. Seek advice from your parents and let them guide you on what to do. They will help you avoid making bad decisions. Given their experience in life and marriage, they will have enough to offer. Furthermore, they know your character and might know and suggest someone to you that you can meet.

Online dating. There are so many sites to choose from online. This is a good platform since most of the people there are also seeking for partners. Find those supporting Muslim dating. Be active on the site and have a presentable profile. Remember this helps you get into contact with potential partners. Avoid committing before engaging in meeting with the person physically.

Find a good chaperone. In Islam, you are not allowed to meet with someone of the opposite sex and be alone. You need to have a third party. Therefore, as you decide on picking a chaperone, pick the right person. Do not let the person you are meeting be intimidated by that person. Always seek the advice of your potential partner when bringing along a chaperone.

Prayer should not be ignored in the search for a partner. Even as you follow up on the things explained above, put your trust in Allah, and He will provide the right person for you. Furthermore, do not ignorantly get into marriage. Make sure you are well prepared to deal with all the challenges that come with it. Seek advice before and after marriage from Imams, your parents and other elders.
