Assalam 'Alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh dear respected sister

First of all, what I wanna do is to congratulate you on reverting to the true way of life. Secondly, I wanna remind you about something truly needs to be pondered over. It is a Hadith of our beloved Prophet (pbuh).

"When Allah created paradise and hell, he sent Jibreel (Gabriel) to paradise, saying: 'Go and look at it and the things I have prepared therein for its inhabitants.' So he went and looked at it and at what Allah had prepared therein for its inhabitants. He then came back and said: 'By your glory, whosoever will hear of it will long to enter it.' So he ordered that it be surrounded by forms of hardship, and said to Jibreel: 'Go back and look at what I have prepared therein for its inhabitants.' So he went back and found that it was surrounded by forms of hardship. Then he came back and said: 'By your glory, I fear that no-one will enter it.'

Then he sent him to the fire of hell saying, 'Go and look at it and what I have prepared therein for its inhabitants.' So he looked at it and saw that it was in layers, one above the other. Then he came back and said: 'By your glory, whoever hears of it will never try to enter it.' So he ordered that it be surrounded by passions and desires, and said: 'Go and see what I have prepared therein for its inhabitants.' So he went and looked at it, then came back and said, 'by your glory, I fear that no-one will escape from entering it.'"
(Muslim, Abu Daawood and Imaam Ahmad)

That is our goal inshaAllah! That is the eternal bliss, if we are among those who will enter it. Always remember my dear sister, will Allah select someone who lives life as whatever the way they like, to enter it?

Prophets of Allah were the people who is tested with most difficult tests, because Allah loves them. We must be sure that when Allah tests somebody with hard tests, it is because Allah wants to reward him/her by testing his/her patience.

That is why the Prophet (pbuh) said that the situation of the believer is Amazing. Because whenever he face something good, he thank Allah, and whenever he face something hard, he be patient. :)

My advice:

Read quran everyday, and keep asking Allah to grant you what is the best. Have utmost trust in Him and try your best. InshaAllah you will find peace in your heart.

Accompany yourself in a good company, and whenever you feel alone, remember that Allah is with you. Go to Him after making Wudu, and pray 2 Rak'ahs. Legthen your Sujood, and beg your Lord, with humbleness. It is reported from the Prophet (pbuh) that there will be 7 types of people who will be under the shade of Allah's throne on the day when there will not be any shade except that (i.e; Qiyaamah). One of the people are those from whose eyes tears flown when they remember Allah alone when nobody sees them.

Make Allah to be your best friend. Return to Him often. Ask him to grant you a pious husband and pious children. Make this Du'a very often.

InshaAllah you will do fine with Allah's mercy.

Have patience my dear sister.

Wassalam 'Alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh

I feel sorry for your situation. but please consider that it is better that they refused before the actual contract took place. This helped you avoid further complications. you can always find another husband. since you are a revert maybe you should search for a husband who is also a revert. you can contact your local mosque.

My dear brother, I am sorry because I have to respectfully disagree with the above statement. Because in the sight of Allah, there is no difference among us except in Taqwa (Piety).

If I mention my personal view, I always have a special respect and love towards my revert brothers and sisters. Yes even for marriage.

Wassalam 'Alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh

revert of many years
asalamalaykum ..dear sister..im so sorry for what is happening to you
happy that you have become muslim ..but sad that your marriage could not happen.this is one of the trials of life..may Allah give you strength to face it,,,its hard that your husband to be eventually chose his family over you ,but family has immensely strong effect on most muslims..

i am a revert and imarried a muslim and went to his country joined his family..hamdilla...but its not easy there are always struggles along the way

but do not think please that a revert should only marry a revert..there have been many discussions about this lately,but as the brother told you ,in the end the most important factor is piety and any true muslim will search for this first


dear sister my heart goes out for you and if there is anything i could do i would..may allah make life easier...

i presume your still young and will have many chances in the future and we dont know sometimes something is taken from us beacuse something better will come to us

which country are you from ,can iask ??

O you who have believed, fear Allah and believe in His Messenger; He will [then] give you a double portion of His mercy and make for you a light by which you will walk and forgive you; and Allah is Forgiving and Merciful.
65:3
And will provide for him from where he does not expect. And whoever relies upon Allah - then He is sufficient for him. Indeed, Allah will accomplish His purpose. Allah has already set for everything a [decreed] extent.

Over the years I have to help a lot of reverts with various problems. I would not suggest a sister marrying someone from outside Europe. Unfortunately, there are a lot of problems that can happen.

You are probably better off not marrying into such a family, that is cultural and do not see you as an equal.

you are maybe right and thank you for your reply. on the other hand i decided to let only Allah guide us (ofcourse He will even if i dont let Him :) i was just sayng i am in peace with this) because : All mankind is from Adam and Eve, an Arab has no superiority over a non-Arab nor a non-Arab has any superiority over an Arab; also a white has no superiority over black nor a black has any superiority over white except by piety and good action. Learn that every Muslim is a brother to every Muslim and that the Muslims constitute one brotherhood. Nothing shall be legitimate to a Muslim which belongs to a fellow Muslim unless it was given freely and willingly. Do not, therefore, do injustice to yourselves.

Assalaam walaikum,

Sister, I have seen this so many many times. This is a good case for plural wives. In an ideal world he could have married you to satisfy his heart and marry another sister to satisfy his obligations.

Do you think you will not be tested. Yes, you will be tested. And you have passed the test. You love Allah.

And that which is with Allah is better.

Your path is going to be full of sunshine, lollipops and rainbows..do not worry.

Whoever desires the harvest of the Hereafter - We increase for him in his harvest. And whoever desires the harvest of this world - We give him thereof, but there is not for him in the Hereafter any share. have any felt that out of the trials of his life , even thinks he lost something, he in fact gained, becamed a stronger person seeking help of Allah, His friendship, His way ? i think i feel like this :shymuslima1: may Allah guide us all and inchallah i come back with good news

Sister,your post caught my attention and while I have my exam tommorow(it made me forget all my anxiety related to it).
Sister,as you have said for yourself that this world is trial for believers,just in case when you are faced with troubles always remember that it is a trial and life in itself is a collection of trials.I cannot imagine what you are going through,but sister life is too short to be sad, depressed or anxious,just look at the other things and let Allah guide you.Perform istikhara inshaAllah and leave it ALL on Allah,for we have no other Wali except Him.

Be brave and from now on be determined to utilise all the
abilities you possess. Be successful. Replace the frown on your
face with a smile, depression with cheerfulness, miserliness with
generosity, and anger with perseverance. Turn your calamities
into occasions of joy and your faith into a weapon!

Whenever I come across sadness or worry or problem there is a feeling inside that alhamdulillah this is to humble me to Allah and soften me and all my worries and anxieties are replaced with hope from Allah.Alhamdulillah!
A salaf said be like bird,which has to wings,one of hope other wing of fear.When faced with difficulties use the wing of hope more,that is,have more hope in Allah and when in a good situation,use the wing of fear,that is,have Allah's fear.This is how life of a believer should be sister.

Perform salat and when you go in sajdah,remember that you are in the closest position to Allah and leave all your worries,cry your heart to Allah,desries,pride,problem etc there,in front of Allah and when you rise from sajdah, inshaAllah you will feel better.
May Allah ease your affairs.Ameen.

:wasalam:
