Marrying From An Orphanage by kartelkid: 3:04am On Jun 08, 2022
Please I would like someone with knowledge of this; to advice me.

Someone suggested it to me, and it seems a good idea, as I want to marry without my family's support. I'm based in lagos. I have family issues; which basically will delay me further.

Please I'm not here for judgement, I just need to know how I can do it.

Maybe he has urge to marry, and no money for dowry and co, so he’s seeking the easy route…

I thought he wanted to ask how he could marry his girlfriend who happens to be in an orphanage.

Op is a kid with kiddish thoughts, that’s all…

3 propositions.
Take one.

1.
You should get in touch with nearest orphanage to collect the details.

If the girl is of legal age and you are of legal age then you can marry her like you would marry a normal girl.

The only difference would be that there would be no one from her side to carry out the marriage rites and in such a case anyone from your side can act as her guardian and carry out the rituals.

Also ensure that she has some valid ID proofs for you to get your marriage registered. Marriage registration is very important because she being an orphan would require your name on her ID's for getting acknowledged as your lawfull wife and no longer be called an orphan.

Marriage demands bonding of two souls and if you are made for each other then it wouldn't matter if either of you have a family or not. But post marriage ensure that you keep her happy and give her the family she had always hoped for along with your support.

Although, According to the Holy Quoran, one shouldn't marry orphan girls but only sponsor them.

It is your responsibility to understand their living situation.
They may not be easily fit in family.
They may not know the importance of parents. They were always alone and grown up with other orphans.

But situation may not be different even if you marry a girl from traditional family background . There are many failed cases in that also.

Getting a suitable partner is absolute luck.
You cannot figure out a person's character immediately.
Don't show hasty towards marriage even if it's arranged regular one.
Take your time and spend some time with your girl and discuss (you both ) your stand, likes dislikes , passions , future etc. Slowly you both can understand each other.

We appreciate your decision to marry an orphan.
But make sure you'll be with her always after marriage as she has no one in this world

3. You should marry people based on liking, compatibility, practicality, not based on whether they are orphan. Why would you want to do that?

If you want to help orphans, a better way is to take the responsibility of the well-being and education of some children.

I dont think you will find girls of marriageable age in an orphanage in Nigeria. Once they mature small....they will leave and go an hussle their life....my thoughts though
Re: Marrying From An Orphanage by 1Alex: 5:58am On Jun 08, 2022
In my understanding, op said he is not in good terms with his family and he wants to get married. But since his family can't accompany him, a friend suggested he marries from the orphanage (because the orphanage might not care if you came with your family or not)

Now he is asking if it's a good idea to marry from the orphanage.


Op, if my summary above is what you meant then I will advise you to shelve your marriage plans and make peace with your family. Not because you are getting married but because no one knows tomorrow.

Marriage is possible anywhere provided you made proper inquiries.

Which people will you now present as families

Why not find a way to sort out the family issues and still marry from the orphanage
Re: Marrying From An Orphanage by Richy4(m): 7:13am On Jun 08, 2022
Honestly I don't understand this post... Why is the write up so unclear...the headline is different from the content so which is it?

Is it that the OP has a family of his or her own but wants to exclude them while getting married hence looking for an orphanage to bribe them that he or she grew up from there...

or did he or she wants to marry an orphan...hence looking for an orphanage for reference. embarassed.

If you want to marry an orphan from the orphanage, I think it’s best you visit the home first and ask whoever you meet there this question.

Have you found any orphan to marry yet?

Goodluck bro, I wish you well

What kind of family issues that can't be resolved

OK naw when you marry and have kids, who will dey regard as family members incase of tomorrow

That you want to marry from a motherless home doesn't mean they won't ask you about your family

If you can't identify with your father's family then switch to your mother's family
