Marry those who fear God A poor righteous man asked a father for the hand of his daughter in marriage, but he refused because the young man was not Rich. Afterwards that father accepted to give his daughter in marriage to a rich man who wasnt a practicing Muslim. People asked the father: How could you accept to marry your daughter to such person? He just replied: Allah is Al-Hadi, The Guide, He will show him the right path in InshAllah. But didnt he know that Al Hadi The Guide who will guide that rich man is also Ar-Razzaq The Provider Who will provide that poor man? Rizq is guaranteed from Allah S.W.T, but Hidayah (Guidance) is not guaranteed. Allah says in Quran: And marry those among you who are single and the pious of your slaves and maid-servants. If they be poor, Allah will enrich them out of His grace. Allah is of ample means, Aware. [ Surah al-Noor : 32] Unfortunately we are in a time where status and wealth are more important than religion/belief and good manners. We are in a time where some parents think that money is the secret of their daughter’s happiness. They forget that a righteous husband is the key to her Jannah (Paradise) and that is the ultimate happiness. They forget that marrying their daughter to a righteous man, they makes sure that the husband gives her happiness for the sake of Allah. If the man has a healthy relationship with Allah Azzawajal, he will be good to her for Allahs sake, he will automatically respect her, love her and care about her for the sake of Allah.
