The hadeeth narrated by al-Bukhaari (4802) and Muslim (1466) from Abu Hurayrah (may Allaah be pleased with him) from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) who said: “A woman may be married for four things: her wealth, her lineage, her beauty and her religious commitment. Seek the one who is religiously-committed, may your hands be rubbed with dust (i.e., may you prosper).” The above hadith does not apply to woman alone but to man as well, you can marry a man for his religious commitment, wealth, beauty and lineage BUT it will be most beneficial if you can take his religious commitment as priority. A religious commitment brother will definitely be bless with Barakah on the long run and will always deal and relate with you with the fear of Almighty Allah. Almighty Allah will grant us a spouse that will be coolness in our eyes and enter Aljannah together (Ameen). 25 Likes |

maryam6:Lol no. Am crios fah I don't want to tell you sth that's not it. But, here's what i found from here http://islamqa.info/en/5202 Religious commitment. This is the most important thing to look for in the man you want to marry. The husband should be a Muslim who adheres to all the laws and teachings of Islam in his daily life. The woman’s guardian (wali) should strive to check out this matter and not rely only on outward appearances. One of the most important things to ask about is the man’s prayer (salaah); the one who neglects the rights of Allaah is more likely to neglect the rights of others. The true believer does not oppress or mistreat his wife; if he loves her, he honours her, and if he does not love her, he does not mistreat or humiliate her. It is very rare to find this attitude among those who are not sincere Muslims. ... As well as being religiously committed, it is preferable that he should come from a good family and a known lineage. If two men come to propose marriage to one woman, and they are equal in terms of religious commitment, then preference should be given to the one who comes from a good family that is known for its adherence to the commands of Allaah, so long as the other person is not better than him in terms of religious commitment – because the righteousness of the husband’s close relatives could be passed on to his children and his good origins and lineage may make him refrain from many foolish and cheap actions. The righteousness of the father and grandfather are beneficial to the children and grandchildren 1 Like 1 Share |

sonofananimal:To choose who to marry is the first step of marriage(he/she must be religious committed). Maybe you are mistaken force marriage to arrange marriage, force marriage is not allowed in Islam arrange marriage is allowed and one can decline the proposal. 3 Likes |

You look out for 4 things in a lady for marriage. 1 Beauty 2 Wealth 3 Family background 4 Religion, which is the most important. This also include education. But lately we just have to pray for Allah's guidance for proper partner. Am not a heavy bearded and trouser jumping brother, but I love my deen and pray to Allah to make it easier for me to practice islam better. But I realized most of our "hijabite" sisters a hypocrites and not real to the world. I don't judge now by the look to award a level of piety. Am forced to still appreciate trouser wearing muslim ladies who are real in their way of live.... May almighty Allah guide us right. Amin 3 Likes |

maryam6:Salam 'alayk. My sister,the first factor is d person's piety towards Allah,Subhanahu wa ta'ala. Holy prophet(S.A.W) admonish us to choose our spouse(s) not on his/her wealth,family influence/connections or handsomeness/beauty but to choose base on d religion(Islam) of d person. When choosing your partner u must choose for d sake of your unborn children,because whoever u marry will definitely have bearing on d future of your children base on how both of you brought them up,especially in terms of religion and morality.
