Top 5 Dua for Finding a Good Spouse: How to Attract the Right Partner in Islam
Finding the right spouse is a significant aspect of a fulfilling life. For many Muslims, turning to dua for a good spouse is a way to seek divine assistance in finding a loving and compatible partner.
In Islam, a good spouse is considered a blessing, and supplications are believed to help in attracting a partner who aligns with one's values and spiritual goals. This blog explores the top 5 dua for finding a good spouse and offering spiritual guidance for a good marriage.
1. Dua for a Good Spouse
The Dua for a Good Spouse is a powerful supplication that asks Allah for a spouse who will bring happiness, support, and strength into one's life. This dua is often recited by individuals seeking a life partner who aligns with their values and Islamic teachings. One of the most recommended duas for this purpose is:
"Allahumma inni as'aluka min khayri ma sa'alaka abduka wa rasuluka, wa a'udhu bika min sharri ma'adhuka minhu abduka wa rasuluka."
This translates to: “O Allah, I ask You for the good of what Your servant and Prophet asked You for, and I seek refuge in You from the evil of what Your servant and Prophet sought refuge from.”
Reciting this dua regularly with sincerity can help attract a spouse who is not only good in character but also supportive and loving.
2. Islamic Prayer for a Good Partner
An Islamic Prayer for a Good Partner involves supplicating Allah for a spouse who will contribute positively to one’s life and faith. A widely recommended prayer for this purpose is:
"Rabbi la tatharni fardan wa anta khayru al-waritheen."
Translation: “My Lord, do not leave me alone (without a helper) while You are the best of inheritors.”
This prayer emphasizes trust in Allah’s ability to provide and highlights the belief that Allah’s plan is always for the best. This dua can be recited daily, especially during moments of reflection and devotion.
3. Dua for Finding a Loving Spouse
The Dua for Finding a Loving Spouse focuses on seeking Allah’s help in finding a partner who will offer love, compassion, and understanding. One effective dua is:
"Allahumma a'ini 'ala khairin qad yusafiq, wa ad'u ilayka bi-hubbih."
Translation: “O Allah, help me to find the best (spouse) who will be kind to me, and guide me to love him/her.”
This supplication helps in finding someone who will not only be a loving partner but also someone who aligns with your spiritual and personal values.
4. Effective Dua for a Good Husband/Wife
An Effective Dua for a Good Husband/Wife can help in finding a spouse who will be a true partner in both worldly and spiritual matters. One such dua is:
"Allahumma inni as'aluka ridhaaka wal-jannah, wa a'udhu bika min sakhatika wa al-nar."
Translation: “O Allah, I ask You for Your pleasure and paradise, and I seek refuge in You from Your anger and the Fire.”
This dua reflects a desire for a spouse who is not only good in character but also someone who helps you achieve spiritual goals. It signifies a commitment to seeking a partner who will support you in both this life and the hereafter.
5. Spiritual Guidance for a Good Marriage
Lastly, Spiritual Guidance for a Good Marriage encompasses more than just specific duas. It involves seeking overall guidance from Allah and engaging in actions that align with Islamic teachings. An excellent practice is to make istikhara, which is the prayer for seeking Allah’s guidance in making decisions, including choosing a spouse.
The istikhara dua is:
"Allahumma inni ista'khiruka bi'ilmika, wa astaqdiruka biqudratika, wa as'aluka min fadlikal-azim."
Translation: “O Allah, I seek guidance from Your knowledge, and I seek strength from Your power, and I ask You for Your immense favor.”
This dua can be recited when you are contemplating marriage, helping you make decisions that align with what is best for your life.
Process for Performing the Dua for a Good Spouse
Prepare Yourself Spiritually: Begin by purifying your heart and intentions. Perform wudu (ablution) and ensure that you are in a clean and quiet place where you can focus on your prayer.
Make the Dua: Recite the dua with sincerity and conviction. For example, you can use:
"Allahumma inni as'aluka min khayri ma sa'alaka abduka wa rasuluka, wa a'udhu bika min sharri ma'adhuka minhu abduka wa rasuluka."
Translation: “O Allah, I ask You for the good of what Your servant and Prophet asked You for, and I seek refuge in You from the evil of what Your servant and Prophet sought refuge from.”
Be Specific: As you recite the dua, be specific about your needs and desires in a spouse. You may add personal requests or attributes you are seeking in a partner.
Pray Regularly: Make this dua a regular part of your prayers. The more consistent you are, the more it reflects your sincere desire and faith in Allah’s help.
Trust in Allah: After making the dua, place your trust in Allah’s wisdom and timing. Have faith that Allah will provide the best outcome for you, even if it might not be immediately apparent.
Take Action: While making the dua is crucial, also engage in practical steps towards finding a spouse, such as networking, seeking advice, or considering matrimonial options, while keeping your intentions clear and sincere.
Seek Guidance: Complement your dua with istikhara prayer if you are contemplating a specific match. This will help you seek Allah’s guidance in making the best decision.
By following these steps, you align your prayers with proactive efforts, creating a balanced approach to finding a good spouse.
Conclusion
Finding a good spouse is a journey that involves both seeking divine assistance and taking practical steps. The above duas provide spiritual support in this quest, offering guidance and help in finding a loving and compatible partner. By incorporating these prayers into your daily routine and trusting in Allah’s plan, you can attract a spouse who will bring joy and fulfillment to your life.

REFLECTIONS ON THE QUR'AN: Sūrah Luqmān
(Luqmān said to his son:) “My dear son! Establish the Prayer in conformity with its conditions, enjoin and promote what is right and good and forbid and try to prevent evil, and bear patiently whatever may befall you. Surely (all of) that is among greatly meritorious things requiring great resolution to fulfill.” (Luqmān 31:17)
In the verse above, the Qur’ān mentions four important points one after another: establishing the Prayer,[1] enjoining and promoting what is right and good, forbidding and trying to prevent evil, and bearing hardships patiently. The Prayer (Salāh) is the greatest of all kinds of worship and the main pillar of Islam. Enjoining and promoting what is right and forbidding and trying to prevent evil are among the strongholds of Islam. It is inevitable for a believer who transcends his or her individual responsibilities and tries to prevent evil in society to face various difficulties and hardships. All those who see themselves in a position to have to give up their years-old habits and feel that their personal interests will be damaged will oppose them and exert pressure on them. However, believers are expected to resist any pressure and preserve their stance. There are many examples of this in history. First of all, Prophet Muhammad, upon him be peace and blessings, although he began his mission alone and was sometimes left only with a few people in his big strenuous struggle, he was never shaken in the face of all obstacles and continued his way with patience and determination.
It is a fact that whenever and wherever some attempt to live Islam truly and convey it to others, the first necessity becomes showing patience. This is emphasized in another verse in a clearer way: “Seek help through patience and the Prayer” (Al-Baqarah 2:45). That is: Go your way by seeking God’s help through all kinds of patience and through all kinds of the Prayer. In fact, performing five daily Prayers, which have forty units, without abandoning any of them is a good example of patience. This most important kind of worship must be very hard and heavy for anyone except those whose hearts tremble respectfully in the presence of God. The following verse expresses this fact: “Indeed the Prayer is burdensome, but not for those humbled by their reverence of God” (Al-Baqarah 2:45).
The verse under discussion also stresses the fact that “establishing the Prayer” as well as “enjoining and promoting what is right and good,” and “forbidding and trying to prevent evil” were also ordered to the communities prior of the Muslim Community. They are presented in the verse in a style addressing believers. After having warned his son against the most heinous and monstrous of evils, saying, “My dear son! Do not associate partners with God. Surely associating partners with God is a tremendous wrong” (31:13), Luqmān calls him to the greatest of the acts or kinds of worship—the Prayer—and the most indispensable dimension of jihād, namely enjoining and promoting what is right and good and forbidding and trying to prevent evil. He concludes his calls with both what is necessary for the fulfillment of these essential duties, which is also another important duty in itself, and with the emphasis on the value and importance on these duties, saying: “Bear patiently whatever may befall you. Surely (all of) that is among greatly meritorious things requiring great resolution to fulfill.”

The Beauty of the Land of The Muslims
Photo #1 : The Kaaba (Block Box) is the direction that Muslims from all over the globe face while praying each of their five daily prayers. The Kaaba is located in Mecca and its walls were erected by none other than Prophet Ibrahim (Abraham) [peace be upon him] thousands of years prior to Moses [P.B.U.H.] and prior to Jesus [P.B.U.H.]. They are all mentioned in the Bible as well as the Quran. Christians, Jews and Muslims all claim Ibrahim (Abraham) [P.B.U.H.] hence the term “Abrahamic Religions.” Although all claim him, it is believed by Muslim that we have the right to do so because of his attempt to only worship one God and staying away from worshipping other people or idols.
Photo #2 : Mount Hira was where the Prophet Mohammed [P.B.U.H] would seclude himself from all the trials and tribulations of indecency, impurities and association of partners with Allah which is believed by Muslims to be the worst sin. It is said by Muslims that during the month of Ramadan, while in a cave inside this mountain, Jibreal (Gabriel), the chief angel, came to the Prophet Mohammed [P.B.U.H.] and recited the first couple of verses of the last and final revelation that Allah would give humanity, The Quran.
Photo #3 : Masjid Quba was the first masjid that the Prophet Mohammed [P.B.U.H] prayed in after being exiled from Mecca. One day, there were Muslims praying in the Mosque when the Prophet [P.B.U.H] received revelation and was told to change the direction of our prayers. Muslims, Jews, and Christian’s used to face the same direction, Jerusalem, while praying but it is believed that Allah told them to change in order to differentiate Muslims from the other Abrahamic faiths.
Photo #4 : Al Masjid an Nabawi (The Prophet’s [P.B.U.H] Mosque) is the second holiest place in Islam, second to only Masjid Al Haram (where the Kaaba is located.) The Prophet [P.B.U.H.] helped build this Mosque but obviously wasn’t able to see the mosque at its final form.
Photo #5 : The rooftop of Al Masjid an Nabawi where you can feel a nice breeze, read some Quran, and drink Zam Zam water. Zam Zam water is a sacred well located in Mecca, near the Kaaba. It holds significant importance for Muslims because it is believed to be miraculously provided by Allah for the Prophet Ibrahim's wife, Hajar, and their son Isma'il [Peace be upon all of them]. Muslims visiting Mecca drink Zam Zam water for its spiritual significance and blessings. The craziest thing about Zam Zam is, it was a little well yet it has quenched the thirst of millions in Mecca, and millions in Madina on a daily basis for over 5000 years.
Photo #6 : This graveyard was a reminder that stopped me in my tracks. Most of the people here have been dead for way longer than they’ve been alive. It reminds us Muslims that the luxuries of this world will not go with us. Everything will stay. It is believed by Muslims that only there are only 2 things that will go with you in your grave and those two things are your good and bad deeds.
Photo #7 : A little Kitty that I found so beautiful. Animals in Mecca & specifically Madina are treated so kindly. Not even flies or mosquitoes are allowed to be killed.
Photo #8 : Hijabi’s feeding birds. Another example of animals being treated so kindly. There were so many birds everywhere and they wouldn’t fly away from humans in fact the opposite. It almost felt as if they knew that we wanted to take care of them.
Photo #9 : Rawdah al Sharifah which is believed to be a garden of paradise on earth. On the right side, it’s where the Prophet Mohammed was buried. All these Muslims are praying one of their voluntary prayers while getting ready to pray our obligatory morning prayer ; Fajr. This prayer must be prayed once the sun shows a white streak in the night sky.
Photo #10 : Al Masjid an Nabawi during the Muslims mandatory Friday prayer in congregation (Jummah Prayer). The Propeht’s [P.B.U.H.] fits over 1 million people but it gets so pact on Fridays that Muslims have to pray outside of the mosque.

I am so sorry to my brothers and sisters in Palestine. I'm sorry the world has abandoned the worth of your souls for the worth of land and oil. I am sorry that this is the horror that human beings are capable of. I am sorry for your loss. I am sorry I have little power to change it and to help.
Allah is with you, he knows the price you’ve paid. I pray he will grant you all Jannah.
As-salaam alaikum.

Huraira reported: The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Islam is to worship Allah without associating any partner with Him, to establish prayer, to give charity, to fast the month of Ramadan, to perform pilgrimage to the House, to enjoin good and forbid evil, and to greet your people with peace. Whoever neglects anything from them has abandoned a part of Islam, and whoever neglects all of them has thrown Islam behind his back.”

The Life of The Prophet Muhammad(pbuh): The Treaty of Hudaybiyah and Calling the Great States of the World to Islam
Muqawqis is Invited to Islam
(7th year of the Migration, the month of Muharram / AD 628)
Hatib b. Abi Baltaa, one of the Companions, set off to Egypt with the letter of the Prophet addressing Muqawqis. Hatib, who went on travelling day and night, gave the letter of the Prophet to Muqawqis in Alexandria. The following was written in the letter which Muqawqis had somebody read it:
“Bismillahirrahmanirrahim!
“From Muhammad, the slave and Messenger of God to Muqawqis, the leader of Copts!
“Peace be upon those who follow the right path!
“After this prayer, I invite you to Islam. Embrace Islam so that you will attain salvation. Embrace Islam so that God will reward you twice. If you refuse my invitation, may you be responsible for the sins of Copts!”
“Say: ‘O people of the Book! come to common terms as between us and you: that we worship none but God; that we associate no partners with Him; that we erect not from among ourselves Lords and patrons other than God.’ If then they turn back, say: ye! ‘Bear witness that we (at least) are Muslims (bowing to God’s will).’” (Aal-i Imran, 64)
When the letter was read, Muqawqis said, “May it be good for all!” and entertained Hatib, the envoy of the Prophet. Then, he put the blessed letter of the Messenger of God into an ivory box and sealed the box.
Muqawqis Accepts
One night Muqawqis summoned Hatib b. Abi Baltaa. There was only a translator with them. After talking for a long time, Muqawqis accepted the prophethood of Hazrat Muhammad (pbuh) though he did not become a Muslim. He said,
“I knew that a prophet would come but I thought he was going to appear in Damascus. For most of the previous prophets appeared in Damascus. In fact, I also saw in the books that the last prophet would emerge in Arabia, the land of hardness, scarcity and poverty.
This time is just the time of the prophet whose characteristics are written in the book of God.
However, Copts will not obey me if I become a Muslim. I cannot leave my sovereignty.
This prophet will be sovereign in many countries; after him, his Companions will come and settle in our land; then, they will defeat those people over there.”
With this talk, Muqawqis accepted the prophethood of Hazrat Muhammad (pbuh) but he did not mention it to his people lest he should lose his sovereignty; he did not become a Muslim, either. Love of sovereignty and kingdom deprived him of the happiness of belief.
The Letter and Presents of Muqawqis to the Prophet
Muqawqis did not become a Muslim because the love of worldly sovereignty outweighed in his heart; however, he sent a letter, some presents and two women slaves to the Prophet.
After that, he saw Hatib b. Abi Baltaa off in Alexandria and said to him, “Do not let Copts hear anything from you.”
The two female slaves that Muqawqis sent to the Messenger of God were Mariya and her sister Sirin. Hatib b. Abi Baltaa explained Islam to them on the way and offered them to embrace Islam; thus, they became Muslims.
Later, the Prophet married Mariya and he married Sirin off to Hassan b. Thabit, the poet.
The other presents sent by Muqawqis were:
* A white mule and a donkey,
* One thousand mithqal (4,5 kg) of gold,
* Twenty suits made of fine Egyptian fabric,
* A crystal glass,
* Aromatic honey, very nice perfumes, etc.
The mule was given the name “Duldul” and the donkey “Ufayr”.
Hatib b. Abi Baltaa is in Madinah
After staying in the country of Muqawqis for five days, Hatib b. Abi Baltaa went to Madinah and told the Prophet what had happened; he also gave the Prophet the letter and the presents sent by the Prophet.
Muqawqis stated the following in his letter:
“From Muqawqis, the leader of Copts to Muhammad b. Abdullah!
Peace be upon you!
After greeting, I want to say this:
I received your letter and read it. I understood what you mentioned in your letter and what you invited me to do.
I knew that a prophet would come but I thought he was going to appear in Damascus!
I entertained your envoy. I sent you two female slaves respected by Copts and clothes; I also sent a mule for you to ride.
Peace be upon you!”
When the letter was read, the Prophet said, “Miserable man! He could not risk his sovereignty but the sovereignty he loved so much will not remain!”
The Original Letter that the Prophet Sent to Muqawqis
The blessed letter of the Messenger of God he sent to Muqawqis is kept in Istanbul Topkapi Palace Museum, in the Department of Holy Relics.
The letter was found in an old monastery among Coptic books in the town of Ahmim in Egypt in H 1267; thereupon, Ottoman Sultan Abdulmajid bought it and made it sent to Istanbul.
The blessed letter, whose dimensions are 16x19 cm, was written on brown leather with black ink and have twelve lines.
The seal of the Messenger of God is present at the bottom of the letter.
There are some holes made by moths in the letter.

YJ Season 4 Arc Rankings Part 1
Since it’s almost been a year since Phantoms ended here’s my personal ranking of the arcs for that season
spoilers ahead
#6- Kaldur‘s Arc
To me this arc just felt kinda slow and not very necessary as it didn’t tie in with the over all plot of the season. It felt like it’s job was to just justify the extra history lesson we got on Vandal Savage on how he’s also the father to Atlanteans and the whole story with King Arion. The story was slow because it took unit the third ep for them to actually go on a mission to find the lost crown and that felt kinda basic of mission with the only real threat that they faced was a giant fish. I think most things just solved themselves and there wasn’t a lot of big change that happen that would impact the rest of the season. I don’t think much will change with Mera being the new king of Atlantis I think she will have similar policy's as her husband did.I did like how they brought up wealth inequality in the different kingdoms of Atlantis and getting to see La’gaan family as well as seeing him show regret over Conor’s death. We love a fish boy that can show growth yayy.😊 And our boy Kaldur finally learned to take a break and sit at home with his boyfriend.
Kalder gets a 4/10
#5-Zatanna’s Arc
Zantanna definitely had a lot more going on with her arc with two chaos lords fighting, another Vandal Savage history lesson, and the origins of the magic school bus. To me the story of Klarion and Vandal meeting was so funny, like Klarion just killed him over and over for a year until Valdal said “wait, I think we can be business partners”. I understand why Nabu hates his dad when he completely ignored his advice not to work with the kid that sunk a continent and killed millions the last time they hung out.😒 I was pretty hyped to see the phantom Stanger and everyone favorite rhyming demon Etrigan but Etrigan only got to be in one fight and he was just used as a distraction. I felt like Zantanna also had one too many apprentices, just along with the other magic users we met it felt a little crowded. I thought it was intreating how they brought religion into it with Kahlid trying to find the balance between magic, medicine, and his Islamic faith. Giovanni being the Italian man that he is held strong to his Catholic faith but idk if he should of did the Lord’s prayer in found of Nabu who was born in 1,836 BCE. I like that the fight between child and Klarion was so big that other heroes had to come to pick up the pieces and now we got 4 new doctor fates on ration and Zantanna can finally hug her dad again. RIP to Teekl #1 long live Teekl #2
Zantanna gets a 6/10
#4 -Artemis’s Arc
This was really close between Artemis’s Arc and Zantanna Arc but I’m getting the high ranking to Artemis. This arc had hard act to follow with Conor dying in just the ep before. I think this arc did really good with showing how Artemis was dealing with the grief of losing another team member and how she copes by helping others. But girl idk if you can get away with saying that Conor was like a brother to you when everyone on the mind link heard you checking him out. 🙁 I also really like how we got to look at Jade and Artemis relationship and their childhood together and we see more of how Jade really did care for Artemis. We also see Jade struggle with wanting to be a good mom and being an assassin. But she ain’t the only ninja mom as we see Lady Shiva try to get her daughter back and I really need a season 5 so I can see Talia al Ghul eat her words about not giving up Damian. I don’t have much of an option on them changing Barbara Gordon story on how she end up in a wheelchair. I did like how they brought back Cassandra Savage and I was really questioning if she was gonna turn on her dad or not. Onyx was just kinda there but it was good to have her there to question if Cassandra was legit or not. I do wish they would of just let Jada go back to Will and Lian instead of going to therapy island with Jason Todd and Onyx. I think it would just clean up the loose ends of her story more and it would feel more complete for her to find peace with her family. Also finding out that Artemis’s new boyfriend is 31 is kinda a trip when you realize he was 21 when she was 15 in season 1.
Artemis gets a 6.5/10

In that scene, it looks like Sam is saying a dua, which is a type of Islamic prayer of invocation or supplication where the devotee is asking for help from God. When a Muslim recites a dua they position their hands the way Sam does in that scene. It's the same way Christians press their palms together when praying. (Disclaimer: I'm not Muslim myself but have lived in a predominantly Muslim area.)
Fuck yeah! Thank you so much! Canonically muslim sam (probably)! That would totally make sense for him to do right before the game that would decide on their relegation
I love canonically muslim sam. If Sam is observant of the muslim dietary restrictions, that means he wouldn't drink alcohol, which would even further bring out the contrasts to his character.
The primary way Sam contrasts from Ted and Jamie is that he has a good relationship with his father, but if you take the reading that Ted's father was an alcoholic, Sam and his father living completely sober is another way in which he strongly contrasts those characters.
I love Sam not drinking being contrasted with Jamie's choice being vanilla vodka, I meant to do a meta about the character implications of this being Jamie's go to drink per my partner's observations as an sober alcoholic.
#my post#sam obisanya#ask and answer#ted lasso#i answer#i have an entire character study i'm working on frantically#where part of the key crux of sams character is hes mature for his age#meaning theres all these parts of himself that make him differ from the people who should be his peers which can lead him to feeling#further isolated and misunderstood when he's already moved away from home to a new country#sam being a self assured non-drinker amongst peers who are mostly indulging in alcohol#and neither judging nor feeling peer pressure is characterization that fits in perfectly#also now i know when the time comes he's going to need to ask for vegan gummy bears#ted lasso show#ted lasso tv#muslim sam obisanya

Well it would be, assuming your mum is married to the original poster.
But like genuinely I’m gonna say a few things bc i have no self control and don’t understand when to leave things as a joke.
Ok so things that are haram and why(not necessarily everything but everything i can think off of the top of my head)(also dont quote me on half of this i’m not a sheikh (islamic expert) or anything)
1. Alcohol
This one’s easy to see why. The main reason why it’s banned, and reasoning why all recreational drugs (including vapes, shisha, cigarettes, etc) r banned, it clouds your judgement. If you can’t properly concentrate in prayer after having something, then its haram.
Also, people doing stupid things while drunk tends to be overlooked in most cultures around the world for some reason. I’ve heard people justifying cheating on partners bc they were a bit tipsy. Also, especially in the uk, most people dont see the problem with it until someone’s a violent alcoholic. (Genuinely why is it easier to say I’m a recovering alcoholic when refusing drinks than saying I dont want to get drunk at all.)It’s bad for your health in large amounts and can have bad effects on social behaviours and blah blan blah there’s thousands of studies online if u want to see for yourself. I’m also one of those really snobby people who thinks if u can’t have fun without alcohol, then ur just a boring person.
Obviously this can be overlooked if there’s a medical reason why you need to have it - like a hospital running out of anaesthetic but like how likely is that at all.
2. predators
This goes for most animals that are banned- bc of disease. You’ve gotta remember that these rules came about in the 600s AD where people in england were paying the catholic church their life savings for bones of saints to be cured of illnesses. Inoculation was discovered by a muslim scientist 100s of yrs later and only brought to england a good 400 yrs later by lady montagu , leading to the discovery of vaccinations by edward jenner in 1796. This means that most animals people were eating weren’t vaccinated and stuff- even today a lot of countries wont be enforcing these sort of fold standard regulations. Food chains and basic biology mean predators are more likely to have contracted diseases from those lower down in the food chain. Long story short your more likely to contract diseases from them.
3. Pork
They’re dirty animals. Ngl I’ve never had pork in my life and I don’t really want to try it- they’re dumb animals that will eat anything put in front of them including their own faeces. This one i’m not too sure why its banned, i just know that god told me no so i dont really wanna eat it bc these rules havent lead me astray so far.
4. Animals that haven’t been slaughtered islamically (including those that have died of natural causes)(excluding fish)
Animals that’ve died of natural causes are more likely to have died from illness which a human can then catch from it (like mad cow disease in the 90s).
Killing an animal islamicly require 4 things- the animal not running away from the butcher ( bc animal rights and ethics and that), for the animal to be slaughtered at the jugular(to help with the next step and make the process as painless as possible while the animal is still conscious), for the animal to bleed out (again food safety), and for the slaughter to be in the name of god ( bc a bit of good blessing on ur food never hurt anyone).
Ngl i’m not too sure why fish is excluded from all the 🤷♀️. You can google it if ur still curious.
Personally, I don’t find these rules too restrictive myself but I also don’t have any other dietary requirements or medically problems that mean a lack of meat would make me ill. I’ve lived in england in my entire life and for the most part i’ve just pretended I’m pescatarian at restaurants and stuff. Its easier than being vegan or vegetarian.
Idk I hope this answer anon’s question
why are islamic dietary restrictions so unbelievably stupid
It's not so bad, for example, it's halal to eat your mom's pussy

Istikhara for love marriage
Istikhara for Love Marriage: A Path to Seek Divine Guidance
Istikhara, a beautiful practice rooted in Islamic tradition, is a prayer seeking guidance from Allah when faced with significant decisions. Among these is the deeply personal and meaningful choice of love marriage. In Islam, marriage is not just a union of two individuals but a spiritual partnership that impacts both worldly and eternal life. Therefore, it is crucial to approach such a life-altering decision with clarity and trust in Allah's wisdom. Istikhara for love marriage serves as a tool to gain insight and align one’s heart with divine will.
Understanding Istikhara The word "Istikhara" derives from the Arabic root "khayr," meaning "goodness." When performed, Istikhara prayer expresses a humble plea for Allah to guide one towards what is best in any given situation. In the context of love marriage, Istikhara seeks Allah’s assistance to determine whether proceeding with the marriage aligns with one’s spiritual and worldly well-being.
This dua, practiced by the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), underscores the importance of entrusting significant decisions to Allah. It serves as a reminder that human understanding is limited and divine wisdom is infinite.
When to Perform Istikhara for Love Marriage Perform Istikhara when you are considering marrying someone you love but are unsure about the decision. Factors such as compatibility, family acceptance, or uncertainties about the future can make this decision challenging. Istikhara offers peace of mind, helping you surrender to Allah's guidance.
How to Perform Istikhara for Love Marriage Sincere Intention (Niyyah): Before starting Istikhara, make a clear and sincere intention to seek Allah's guidance.
Perform Two Units (Rakats) of Prayer: Offer two rakats of voluntary prayer with focus and devotion.
Recite the Istikhara Dua: After completing the prayer, recite the specific dua for Istikhara. The wording of the dua highlights a request for clarity and goodness, while asking Allah to steer you away from harm.
The translation of the dua includes:
"O Allah, if this matter is good for me in my religion, my livelihood, and my affairs, then ordain it for me, make it easy for me, and bless it for me. And if it is bad for me, then turn it away from me, and turn me away from it, and grant me what is good wherever it may be."
Observe and Reflect: Pay attention to your heart’s feelings, recurring thoughts, or circumstantial developments that occur afterward.
Key Benefits of Istikhara for Love Marriage Alignment with Divine Will: Istikhara keeps your decision-making process spiritually grounded, ensuring you prioritize Allah’s guidance over emotions.
Clarity and Peace of Mind: The process eases doubts, fostering peace and certainty in the decision.
Protection from Harm: Allah’s guidance through Istikhara protects you from unseen risks and missteps.
Complementing Istikhara with Other Actions While Istikhara for love marriage is significant, complement it with practical steps. Seek counsel from trusted family members or religious scholars, engage in open communication with your partner, and evaluate compatibility. Remember that Istikhara is not about seeing visions or miracles but about trusting Allah to guide your path.
In conclusion, Istikhara for love marriage embodies reliance on Allah’s wisdom in matters of the heart and life. It reflects the humility and faith necessary for making life-changing decisions with peace and confidence. By incorporating Istikhara in your journey, you pave the way for a relationship founded on trust, divine blessings, and long-term harmony.

Important Duas
Muslims use the Quran, which is very important to them, to help them with everything. Making dua is very important in the Islamic faith because Allah tells people to call on Him and ask for help and forgiveness. Prayer can help you at any time, place, and no matter what. In addition, many teachers throughout history told stories about specific prayers they said, which you could use if needed. Here are ten of these kinds of important duas from the Quran.
وَمِنْهُم مَّن يَقُولُ رَبَّنَآ ءَاتِنَا فِى ٱلدُّنْيَا حَسَنَةًۭ وَفِى ٱلْـَٔاخِرَةِ حَسَنَةًۭ وَقِنَا عَذَابَ ٱلنَّار
“Oh, Lord! Please give us good things in this world and the next, and keep us safe from the fire. (2:201 in the Quran)
It is one of the most well-known duas, and the Prophet PBUH said it many times. We pray to Allah to give us all the good things we want in life. These include being physically healthy, happy, and joyful, growing spiritually or intellectually, and doing good things for others, like donating money to charities that help those less fortunate than us.
٣٩ ٱلْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ ٱلَّذِى وَهَبَ لِى عَلَى ٱلْكِبَرِ إِسْمَـٰعِيلَ وَإِسْحَـٰقَ ۚ إِنَّ رَبِّى لَسَمِيعُ ٱلدُّعَآءِ
رَبِّ ٱجْعَلْنِى مُقِيمَ ٱلصَّلَوٰةِ وَمِن ذُرِّيَّتِى ۚ رَبَّنَا وَتَقَبَّلْ دُعَآءِ
“Our Lord!” Make me and the people who believe in my heirs always pray. Dear Lord! Please accept my prayers. Dear Lord! Please forgive me, my parents, and all Christians on the Day of Judgment. 14:40–41 of the Quran
This dua was something Prophet Ibrahim would ask Allah to help his children and grandchildren pray continuously and to forgive his parents and all believers on the Day of Judgment. 1. This is a prayer that all Muslims can say for their families and the whole community, or ummah.
ٱلَّذِينَ يَقُولُونَ رَبَّنَا هَبْ لَنَا مِنْ أَزْوَٰجِنَا وَذُرِّيَّـٰتِنَا قُرَّةَ أَعْيُنٍۢ وَٱجْعَلْنَا لِلْمُتَّقِينَ إِمَامًا“
Dear Lord! God, please give us good wives and children who will make us happy and show others how to be good. (25:74 in the Quran)
This dua from Allah SWT will not only get you into paradise but also make you better there. We can ask Him for good partners and children with this dua.
رَبِّ هَبْ لِى مِن لَّدُنكَ ذُرِّيَّةًۭ طَيِّبَةً ۖ إِنَّكَ سَمِيعُ ٱلدُّعَآءِ ٣
“Our Lord!” By your grace, give me good children. “There’s no doubt that you hear all prayers.” (3:38 in the Quran)
If you want to grow your family, the following dua is very good for you. Zakariyya asked Allah for a good child without thinking about how old he was, and Allah gave him just that.

THE BENEFITS AND VIRTUES OF RECITING OR LISTENING TO SURAH AL-IKHLAS, 112
Reciting Surah Al Ikhlas is believed to be the means of earning Allah's love and attaining paradise. It also banishes poverty and increases sustenance. In addition, the constant recitation of this Surah makes a person worthy of having the archangel Jibreel participate in his/her funeral prayer.
Counted amongst the most important chapters of the Holy Quran Surah Al Ikhlas is also referred to as The Sincerity, The Purity and Surah Tawheed. Consisting of four verses known as Surah Al Ikhlas Ayat, it is the 112th chapter of the Holy Qur’an, which focuses on the unity and oneness of God Almighty.
It is believed that this Surah was revealed during the Quraish conflict with Prophet Muhammad (SallAllahu ‘alaihi wa Sallam) when they challenged the distinguishing attributes of the God Almighty worshipped by the Prophet (SallAllahu ‘alaihi wa Sallam). As it exclusively focuses on Tawheed (the indisputable concept of monotheism and the oneness of God Almighty), Al Ikhlas is not just this Surah’s name but also the title of its contents.
Significance of Surah Al Ikhlas in Islam:
Held in particularly high regard by Muslims worldwide, Surah Al Ikhlas is considered to be equal in value to one-third of the entire Holy Qur’an. This is because all of the Qur'anic teachings are essentially based on three principles, the first of which is the oneness of God Almighty.
Surah Al Ikhlas affirms the concept of Allah’s oneness and invalidates all forms of idolatry and polytheism. This solidifies the significance of Surah Al Ikhlas as the entire foundation of Islam is built on the absolute belief in Allah’s oneness. As per Islam, there is no other god besides Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala). He has no associates, partners or helpers.
Surah Ikhlas Transliteration:
Surah Al Ikhlas transliteration is highly search and sought by young followers of Islam. It simplifies the pronunciation and pauses, this helping in better understanding and recital. Here is the whole transliteration in English:
Bismillaahir Rahmaanir Raheem
Qul huwAllaahu Ahad(un), Allaahus Samad(u), lam yalid walam yuulad(u), walam yakullahu kufuwan Ahad(un).
Surah Al Ikhlas Lyrics in Arabic
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ ١ اللَّهُ الصَّمَدُ ٢ لَمْ يَلِدْ وَلَمْ يُولَدْ ٣ وَلَمْ يَكُن لَّهُ كُفُوًا أَحَدٌ ٤
The complete translation or meaning of Surah al Ikhlas is given below:
He is Allah, the One and Only; Allah, the Eternal, the Absolute; He begetteth not, nor is He begotten; And there is none like unto Him.
Surah Al Ikhlas Ayaats
Surah Al Ikhlas has four Ayaats, all of which together support Shahadah, one of the Pillars of Islam, which emphasizes that there is no true deity besides Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala).
Its first Ayat proclaims the oneness of Allah. The second Ayat declares that Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala) is As-Samad, which means he has all the characteristics of perfection. This Ayat proclaims that He is the one who everybody depends on, but He doesn’t depend on anyone. It also indicates that He is unlike His creation. The Surah’s third Ayat states that neither was He born nor did He ever give birth. And, the fourth and final Ayat declares that He is beyond comparison and that no one is equal to Him.
Benefits of Reciting Surah Al Ikhlas
Several Hadiths clearly underline the virtues of Surah Al Ikhlas. Reciting this Surah offers the same reward as reciting a third of the Quran. It is believed that Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala) will gather all the good of this world and the next one for those who recite this Surah.
It is also believed that all the sins of those who don’t abandon the recitation of this Surah will be forgiven by Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala) along with the sins of his/her parents and children. Reciting Surah Al Ikhlas is believed to be the means of earning Allah’s love and attaining paradise. It also banishes poverty and increases sustenance. In addition, the constant recitation of this Surah makes a person worthy of having the archangel Jibreel participate in his/her funeral prayer.
Surah Ikhlas Hadiths
There are numerous Hadiths that underline the significance and virtues of this Surah. And, some of these Hadiths are as follows:
Abu Said Al-Khudri (RadiyAllahu ‘anhu) narrated, “A man heard another man reciting Surah Al Ikhlas repeatedly. He went to the Prophet (SallAllahu ‘alaihi wa Sallam) and informed him thinking that the recitation of this Surah alone was not enough. Allah’s Apostle replied (SallAllahu ‘alaihi wa Sallam), “By Him in Whose Hand my life is, it is equal to one-third of the Holy Qur’an.”
Ai’sha (RadiyAllahu ‘anhaa) narrated, “The Prophet SallAllahu ‘alaihi wa Sallam) sent an expedition under the leadership of a man who led his companions in the prayers and finished his recitation with Surah Al Ikhlas. When they returned, they mentioned this to the Prophet (SallAllahu ‘alaihi wa Sallam). He said, “Ask him why he does so.” When they asked him, he replied, “I do so because this Surah states the qualities of the merciful Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala) and I love to recite it.” When the Prophet (SallAllahu ‘alaihi wa Sallam) heard this, he said, “Tell him that Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala) loves him.”
Abu Said (RadiyAllahu ‘anhu) narrated, “The Prophet (SallAllahu ‘alaihi wa Sallam) asked his companions, “Is it difficult for any of you to recite one-third of the Holy Qur’an in one night?” They replied, “Who among us has the power to do so?” Allah’s Apostle (SallAllahu ‘alaihi wa Sallam) said, “Allah (the) One, the Self-sufficient Master Whom all creatures need.”
Narrated by Al-Tirmidhi, “Say Surat Al Ikhlas and al-Mu’awwidhatain three times in the morning and the evening; they will suffice you from everything.”
A’isha (RadiyAllahu ‘anhaa) narrated, “Whenever the Prophet (SallAllahu ‘alaihi wa Sallam) went to bed every night, he cupped his hands together and blew over them after reciting Surah Al Ikhlas, Surah an-Naas and Surah al-Falaq. Then, he rubbed his hands over every part of his body he could, starting with his face, head and front. He did that three times every night.”
Imam Ahmad (Rahimullah ‘alaihi) recorded Ibn ‘Umar (RadiyAllahu ‘anhum) saying, “I watched the Prophet (SallAllahu ‘alaihi wa Sallam) reciting twenty-four or twenty-five times in the two Rak’ahs before the morning prayer and the two Rak’ahs after the sunset prayer, say: O ye infidels! (Surah Al-Kaafiroon) and say: He is Allah, One.”
Imam Malik ibn Anas (Rahimullah ‘alaihi) recorded that Ubayd bin Hunain said that he heard Abu Hurairah (RadiyAllahu ‘anhum) saying, “I went out with the Prophet (SallAllahu ‘alaihi wa Sallam) and he heard a man reciting Surah Al Ikhlas. So, the Prophet (SallAllahu ‘alaihi wa Sallam) said: It is obligatory. I asked: What is obligatory?” and he replied: Paradise.”
All these Hadiths highlight that Surah al Ikhlas is an important chapter in the Holy Qur’an and Islamic scholars recommend reciting it
