Sisters have dreams of snuggling up to a bearded brother who wears a white thobe and two small kids on their laps. Alhamdulillaah, a good dream. You want a man who will take you closer to Allaah? You even go so far as to say you only want a man who is upon Salafiyyah - SubhanAllaah wAlhamdulillaah, a beautiful dream! But, is that all it is… a dream? Do you really want to marry someone like Rasulullah (ﷺ)? Think about that. Do you really want to marry a pious brother? Think about it. Look at the example of our beloved Shaykh Muqbil (رحمه الله) who did not even know what an aquarium was. He thought it was a TV and left the house, fleeing the sin! What about Shaykh al-Albaani (رحمه الله)? Studying books upon books of hadith, some 12 hours a day? Eh? Do you really want to marry men, LIONS, of the Sunnah? Im asking you, O my sisters, do you love your fashion, your makeup, your TV, your pictures? What will be your affair when your husband forbids the television in his house? What of the pictures, quoting you the hadith, “The Angels do not enter a house where there is a picture.”? Ya Akhawaat fi Islaam! What truly is your want for a husband? Because if you say it is a student, a Salafi, a true follower of the Prophet and his companions, then know it wont be easy. Then be prepared for your husband to forbid things you may be accustomed to. Will you disobey him when he does not wish for you to leave the house unless you are with a mahram? What about when you have no TV and he wants to go over the book of Allaah, or the books of ilm, in this free time, eh? What truly do you know of marrying a man upon Deen besides what you have concocted from many “fiqh of love” duroos by individuals and the westernisation of your ways in America, UK, and other than them? Do you really want a Muhammad? A Salafi? A pious man? Or do you just want marriage? Think about it.” —Dawud Salafi Talibulilm
