Forced Marraige (Almost!)
W-Salam,
Stay Away Bro!
Shortly after my dad passed away...
I went to Pakistan when I was 21 & found that I was ENGAGED...First I thought that this was a joke but when the girl in question kept taggin along with me; I got alarmed but still not much
Then I was forced to take her out on a mini-date & conversation started to get really colourful so I knew something was up!
I complained to my mother and others in the family; my mother was thoroughly vetoed so in the end she said, "Fine...You know his temper...get his Nikah (marriage) done and deal with the consequences yourself...And if harms her; don't come to me for help!"
Everyone backed off and I came back single!
She is married, I am married and we (me, her & her husband) get along absolutely great!
A'salaam alaikum
I am still learning anyway, albeit that I still find it all a bit confusing.
I have a scary email from someone "Offering?" themselves in marriage? I do not understand what this means or even if it is the "Norm".
Have no idea what to do about it so I'm in hiding. Besides I cannot see myself flying off to Egypt at the moment, even though my daughter says "Let's Go"
W'salaam
