Why Am I Still Not Married? The Silver Lining of Being Single

“Why Am I Still Not Married? The Silver Lining of Being Single"
1) There Is Nothing Wrong with You!
-Allah created the beautiful, unique you, and if He decrees it, someone out there will agree to marry you just the way you are.
-So do not despair of Allah’s mercy, and remain positive that someone
out there will like you and agree to marry you, in Shaa’ Allah.
-Never let others make you feel that if you are thirty-something and
still not married, it is because either there is something wrong with
you, or because Allah has decreed for you to forever remain single
2) Divine Wisdom behind Perceived “Delays” in Marriage
-Marriage can take place at any age in life, even at 50 or 60, as
Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and many of his companions
practically demonstrated.
-It is also a fact that marriage will not happen within the first 2
or 3 decades of life for every one of us. So we should give more leeway
and refrain from making blanket, generalized statements about our older,
single brothers and sisters.
3) Becoming Mature and Responsible Enough First
-It is not that God is not answering your du’as. Maybe He has already
accepted your du’as for marriage with a righteous person, but it will
actually happen practically after a few more years, when it is best and
easiest for you to enter this sacred union with that person.
- He knows everything about you that even you do not know, which is called ‘the Unseen’, or “ghaib” in Arabic.
4)Da’wah Experience and Acquisition of Knowledge
-Perhaps God wants you to seek more knowledge and engage in more active
da’wah work before you settle down in married life. #These precious
years of your youth will never return, and In Shaa Allah, decades down
the road, a more mature and wise you will cherish, like a priceless gem,
every year of experience that you acquired in the fields of Islamic
knowledge and da’wah before getting married.
5) Better than Early Divorce
-It could be that your being single, which is a painful trial of
patience in your eyes, is a blessing in disguise that is acting as a
barrier between you and worse calamities and adversities.
6) Increase in Humility
-A delay in marriage increases one’s humility, and makes one more
down-to-earth and approachable by others. It also ensures that one
constantly keeps turning to Allah in earnest du’as - which is something
that Allah loves about His slaves!
7) Blessings Received after Hardship Are Cherished More
The more one waits for, works hard for, and remains patient for
acquiring a blessing, the more one cherishes it after one receives
it.And by then these precious blessings will be so much more worth the
wait!

we live under the same sky
“To put away aimlessness and weakness, and to begin to think with purpose, is to enter
the ranks of those strong ones who only recognize failure as one of the pathways to attainment; who make all
conditions serve them, and who think strongly, attempt fearlessly, and accomplish masterfully.”
- James Allen Quotes
Sometimes I wonder how people see me and what they think of me. It scares me a bit, honestly. I am sure though, that
what they think of me,
what they think my life is, is a complete misperception. I have always tried to show myself as a carefree person, as
someone who wont get bothered
because of public judgements. I am sure my friend and family think there is nothing going wrong in my life, that I do
not worry enough, that
I am always happy. And I am sure they probably somewhat hate me for it because, lets admit it, there is nothing worse
than seeing someone
who is life seems so perfect while yours is a complete mess. Truth is, I have become an expert at pretending. I think we
are all experts
or at least we are getting there.
