salaam to all,
i am a 26 year old muslim male that wishes to find a muslim bride. the problem that i've been having is that all of the potential muslimahs are of a different culture and their culture likes to remain in their own. i do not view them as racists, but doesn't islam come before culture? i haven't found any muslimahs of my culture, so this has become quite difficult for me. it's mostly due to the pressure of their families to stay within their own. but isn't it piety of the muslim/ah that should matter most? most of my culture is non-muslim, so i know that in a secular view i can find a ' girlfriend ' or wife, but girlfriends are haram. i want to marry a muslim, i don't want to have to try to convert someone of my culture. i want to follow sunnah as best as possible. i ask all brothers and sisters in deen to keep me in their du'a to ask Allah swt to helpvme bear this hardship.
