Marriage is destined by Allah ﷻ; delay is not failure, don’t let competition pressure you into something you’re not ready for.
#Copied
Marriage is a significant part of our lives, and we need to remember that it is ultimately destined by Allah ﷻ. We must trust in His wisdom and timing, knowing that everything happens according to His divine plan. For those of us who are still single and longing for a life partner, it is crucial to understand that the delay we may be experiencing is not a sign of failure or unworthiness. Allah ﷻ has a plan for each of us, and He knows when the right time will come for us to meet the person we are meant to share our lives with. We must not fall into the trap of comparing our journey with others or succumbing to the societal pressures that suggest that marriage is a race or competition. It is important to be patient, to trust in Allah’s timing, and to focus on preparing ourselves for the moment when He deems it the right time.
The delay we experience should not cause us to feel despondent or discouraged. Rather, it should be seen as an opportunity to grow closer to Allah ﷻ, strengthen our faith, and work on ourselves. Allah ﷻ is the best of planners, and He knows what is best for us. For those who have yet to find their life partner, it is essential to remain patient and trust that Allah’s ﷻ plan for us is better than anything we can imagine. The waiting period is not a waste; it is a time for us to reflect, learn, and become the best versions of ourselves. We should also remember that our worth is not defined by whether we are married or not. Our true worth is in our faith, our actions, and our relationship with Allah ﷻ.
As we wait for Allah’s ﷻ plan to unfold, we must not let the pressure of competition or the opinions of others influence our decisions. Marriage is a sacred bond that should not be rushed. It is not a race, and it is not something to be done out of a sense of obligation or comparison. We should avoid being swayed by the idea that we need to meet certain societal milestones at a particular age or stage in life. The right person will come at the right time, and that time is determined by Allah ﷻ, not by the expectations of those around us. Therefore, let us remain patient and steadfast in our trust in Him.
We should also keep in mind that marriage is not only about finding a life partner, but it is about building a home based on love, respect, and faith. It is a bond that requires maturity, understanding, and emotional readiness. If we rush into marriage due to external pressures, we may find ourselves unprepared to handle the responsibilities that come with it. Marriage is a sacred commitment, and we should enter into it with a heart full of faith and a readiness to fulfill the rights of our spouse. It is better to wait for the right person than to settle for someone who is not aligned with our values and goals.
For those who are still waiting for their life partner, it is essential to remain hopeful and patient. We must remember that Allah ﷻ has a plan for each of us, and His timing is perfect. We are not in competition with anyone else. Marriage is not a goal to be achieved for the sake of status or approval from others. It is a sacred act that brings us closer to Allah ﷻ. Let us focus on our faith and our personal growth while we wait for Allah’s ﷻ decree.
Allah ﷻ says in the Qur’an:
“Indeed, Allah has prescribed for everything a fate.” (Qur'an, 65:3)
O Allah ﷻ, we ask You with hearts full of hope and trust to guide us to what is best for us in this life and the Hereafter. Grant patience to those among us who are waiting for their life partners, and bless them with righteous and compatible spouses at the right time. For those who are married, fill their homes with love, tranquility, and faith. Protect us all from hastiness and the pressures of competition, and allow us to trust in Your perfect timing and wisdom.

Surah Maryam : Aayaat 88-92
وَقَالُوا۟ ٱتَّخَذَ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنُ وَلَدࣰا ﴿ ٨٨ ﴾
And they say: "The Most Beneficent (Allah) has begotten a son (or offspring or children) [as the Jews say: 'Uzair (Ezra) is the son of Allah, and the Christians say that He has begotten a son ['Iesa (Christ)], and the pagan Arabs say that He has begotten daughters (angels, etc.)]."
لَّقَدۡ جِئۡتُمۡ شَیۡـًٔا إِدࣰّا ﴿ ٨٩ ﴾
Indeed you have brought forth (said) a terrible evil thing.
تَكَادُ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَ ٰتُ یَتَفَطَّرۡنَ مِنۡهُ وَتَنشَقُّ ٱلۡأَرۡضُ وَتَخِرُّ ٱلۡجِبَالُ هَدًّا ﴿ ٩٠ ﴾
Whereby the heavens are almost torn, and the earth is split asunder, and the mountains fall in ruins,
أَن دَعَوۡا۟ لِلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ وَلَدࣰا ﴿ ٩١ ﴾
That they ascribe a son (or offspring or children) to the Most Beneficent (Allah).
وَمَا یَنۢبَغِی لِلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ أَن یَتَّخِذَ وَلَدًا ﴿ ٩٢ ﴾
But it is not suitable for (the Majesty of) the Most Beneficent (Allah) that He should beget a son (or offspring or children).

The Race Against Time: Offering Your Best to Allāh in Your Prime
A sincere advice for my brothers & sisters in Islām,
A reflection I wanted to share to all as I watch my father who is weak and recovering from his brain operation. A man who, at 87 years old, was once the most active and vibrant person, now struggles to even move a limb. Seeing him, once so full of energy and independence, now fighting to perform even the simplest of movements—like raising his hands and legs. This has made me realise the importance of our youth, our prime and good health.
Allāh and His Messenger ﷺ have repeatedly reminded us of the fleeting nature of life, the value of youth, and the urgency to act before our time is up. This only becomes a reality for many of us when we have fallen weak, ill or just too late.
The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said beautifully: “Take advantage of five before five: your youth before your old age, your health before your sickness, your wealth before your poverty, your free time before your busyness, and your life before your death.” Sunan Tirmidhī
This narration strikes at the core of my advice. Youth is not just a phase of strength and energy—it’s a divine trust, a fleeting opportunity to earn Allāh’s pleasure before the inevitabilities of life—weakness, frailty, and death—overcome us.
When we are young and healthy, it’s easy to take our strength and time for granted, but every breath is a blessing that deserves gratitude through action. What excuse will we have when Allah asks about our youth?
The time to act is now. The time to serve Allāh, support others, dedicate your wealth and energy for the sake of Allāh—is NOW!!
When old age or illness comes, you will only wish you could do what you neglected in your youth. This life is short, and our youth even shorter. Every moment wasted in heedlessness is a moment lost forever. Imagine the regret of someone who spent their best days in leisure and dunya comfort, only to be reduced to weakness, unable to do what they once could.
Imagine standing before Allāh with nothing but excuses for why we did not pray more, fast more, serve more, and give more.
The companions of the Prophet ﷺ were young when they changed the world. They carried the message of Islām on their shoulders, sacrificing their youth for the eternal gardens of Jannah.
Where are we? Why not us?
The graveyards are full of people who thought they had more time. Don’t let that be your story. Seize your youth. Seize your health. Seize your life for Allāh. Because in the end, only what you do for Allāh will remain.
The time is now. Act, before it’s too late.

Let's start practicing Gratitude by filling our "Gratitude Jar".✨
On the Note always start by writing Alhamdulillaah.
Eg.
"Alhamdulillaah today I got a new dress/shoes etc."
"Alhamdulillaah today I passed this exam."
And so on...
In sha Allaah, By the end of the year, we will have so many reasons to be thankful for!

أمر أنا أطلبه منذ عشرين سنة لم أنله، ولست بتركه فيما أستقبل
"(There is) an affair I've been pursuing for twenty years that I've yet to attain, and I will not leave it in the coming days."
The people asked:
وما هو يا أبا المعتمر
'And what is it, Abul Mu'tamir?'
He responded:
الصمت عمّا لا يعنيني
"Silence regarding that which is none of my concern."
