CHOOSING MY PARTNER ON SOCIAL MEDIA



*CHOOSING MY PARTNER ON SOCIAL MEDIA*
*(An Admonition To Today's Youth)*
I think you need to give a thought to this reminder, Allah bless you.
Please be careful what you see in the distance for it may not look the same when it gets closer. Do not promise marriage to the person you just met on social media because sometimes you will be taken in by our posts only to realize that it's all 'cut and paste'.
Many would-be couples have ran away because after meeting the partner they realized that this is not what they bargained for. Do not forget, appearances are deceptive.
This person may post beautiful articles on Facebook with thousand likes and hundreds of comments but at the end of the day you find him as a dull and unintelligent man.
Furthermore, many immoral persons may post Eeman-filled advices on Facebook and WhatsApp (If you see their prowess on WhatsApp pages you may even think they are the Mufti of Makkah) only to turn out to be irresponsible people who ignore their Salaah, live on Haram and commit all manner of unIslamic activities.
Some ladies may put on the Hijab just as a fashion for the camera but in their various communities their dress code is the total opposite. We have seen many.
I am not saying you should not get acquainted or express the desire but your solemn promise of marriage should wait till you see the person or you let somebody check the person for you.
You don't necessarily need to LOVE the person before you can marry him or her, but you need to appreciate the person as a good Muslim with equally good moral qualities.
One of the most painful things to happen to a person is to realize when it is too late that the choice of a life partner was made on wrong premises.
I have seen many hearts broken hence my admonition.
A word to the wise............
*NB:* I must however admit that a few have worked though. Allah knows but we know not.

How to correct your wives without Hurting her Feelings (13 ways)

HOW TO CORRECT YOUR WIVES WITHOUT HURTING HER FEELINGS Most men hurt their wives in the name of correcting them. They speak harshly, they are so rash in their approach and can be brutal.

Everyone is running their own RACE, in their own TIME. Don’t be violent or mean to yourself for no reason other than just because your path is different from the person’s path beside you.

*TIME IS SOMETHING* She is married at the age of 21. - Oh and I’m still single at 35. She’s momming three kids. - Oh and I am 10 years married and have none. She is a manager in an international company. - Oh, we graduated together and I am still jobless. She travels the world . - Oh and I have never been abroad. Job title, income, grades, house, and Instagram and Facebook  likes—the number of categories in which we can compare ourselves to others are infinite. Where is it expected from you to be a doctor or engineer, get married by 21 and have mortgaged house and 3 kids by 26. RELAX. You’re not LATE. You’re not EARLY. Everyone is running their own RACE, in their own TIME. Don’t be violent or mean to yourself for no reason other than just because your path is different from the person’s path beside you. Be your own cheerleader. Stop comparing yourself with others and instead refocus all that energy internally and focus on how you can become the best versio

Ruling on women spending of their own wealth without their husbands permission

Ruling on women spending of their own wealth without their husbands permission      Question I am a working woman, and I have a salary from which I spend on myself and my home, I give some to my family and I give some in charity, and so on. Many of the arguments that I have with my husband arise because of the way I spend my money. Does my husband have the right to object to the way I spend my money? Do I have to ask for his permission when I want to spend any of my money? Answer Praise be to Allah. Undoubtedly the free adult person who is of sound mind and discernment is permitted to dispose of his own wealth with no restrictions as long as he is alive, whether he is buying, renting, giving a gift, establishing a Waqf (endowment) or any other kind of transaction. There is no dispute among the scholars on this point. There is also no dispute among the scholars concerning the fact that the husband does not have the right to object to the way his wife handles her wealth
