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.

Be civilized. This means to be someone who respects others and their opinions. When in the presence of a potential partner let them know that you value their presence and would like to engage in a conversation with them. In as much as you are expected to be relaxed do not make any comments that could be offensive.

Get out and mingle with your age mates. Put yourself out there, with the modesty of course. Get involved in activities where people of different sexes are involved. Meet new people, be open to those engaging you in conversations. Do not be too strict and serious. Laugh at jokes and take every moment lightly. Maybe your spouse is waiting for you out there, and they could be watching.

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.

Do not walk this road alone. For you to achieve the goal of finding a perfect partner for yourself. You need wisdom and advice of those who have been there and have done that. Probably your parents. Talk to them, let them help you find a good partner if they can, and you entrust them too. Having been married for many years they can make things easy for you.

Search online. The internet has platforms where people meet and get to know each other. Do not be shy, venture into such sites and you will be linked to people like you. Create a good profile for yourself and be sure to actively engage in conversations either by video calls, direct messages or even comments on your profile. If you get to like someone, arrange how you can meet them in person.

Get a trusted chaperone. A chaperone in Islam is someone who moderates meetings between two people of the opposite sex. This has to be someone you trust completely. Their main role is to sit through the meetings to ensure that you do not get involved sinfully with your potential partner by being tempted by Satan which happens quite easily. Given both of you are attracted to each other.

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.
