Yaar, this is about the time when I was at a point in my life where my heart started beating for someone. It seemed that this is it. This is the person I want to marry, with whom I want to travel from morning tea to old age. But the real problem started where every Muslim hopes – “Now how do I ask Allah to get me married to this person?” How to ask Allah to marry someone you love?
You have probably come here in search of the answer to this question. Come, let’s talk openly today. Simple, honest, without any big promises. Come, let’s sit, as if two friends are talking, and I will tell you – how to pray to Allah for the marriage of your love.
First of all: Ask yourself honestly – is this person really right for you?
Look, Allah cannot be deceived. He knows every word, every corner, every intention of the heart. So first of all, ask yourself – do you want this person only for his/her beauty? Or does his/her prayers, his/her character, his/her mannerisms attract you?
Sometimes we start loving someone so much that we forget to see the reality. Then later when Allah does not grant that relationship, then complaints start. “Allah does not listen to me”, “I prayed so much, yet…” – but did you see that relationship from his/her perspective?
Once I too had prayed with my eyes closed. Day and night, getting up in Tahajjud, crying. And then after a few months, the reality of that person came to the fore. Then I understood – Allah had saved me from that prayer, not rejected it.
How to pray? Simply, honestly and from the heart
Now the real thing. How to pray? See, prayer is not a script that has to be memorized and read. It comes from the heart, and goes straight to the throne.
You can say something like this:
“O Allah! If this person is good for me – for my religion, my world and the hereafter – then write him in my destiny. Make our paths easy, unite our hearts. And if he is not good for me, then remove the thought of him from my heart and make me happy with what you have kept best for me.”
That’s it. Simplicity is effective.
What is the right time to ask Allah?
Now let’s talk about timing. See, Allah listens all the time, but there are some moments when God himself opens the doors of the sky:
Tahajjud Namaaz – the third quarter of the night, when everyone is sleeping and you are waking up and talking to Him
Juma day – especially before Zuhr
In Sajda – when the head is on the ground, the heart is closest to God
At the time of Iftaar – the prayer done while breaking the fast is very effective
I myself had prayed in Tahajjud. It was winter, it seemed difficult to get up in the cold and do wuzu. But the heart used to say, “Go, Allah is waiting.” And believe me, every night I found myself in spiritual peace.
Not just prayer, action is also necessary
It is easy to ask Allah, but are we ready to maintain that relationship? Everyone talks about love, but Nikaah is not just love, it is a responsibility.
If you are a man, ask yourself – do I have the courage to talk to her father? Am I ready to bring her home in a halal way?
If you are a woman, think – do I want to handle the honor given by Allah in a halal way?
Look, nothing happens just by saying “O Allah, get me married to this girl”. You have to make efforts. You have to talk, you have to take the relationship on halal paths.
If the relationship does not happen, do not break down
This is the most painful part. What if you prayed day and night and still that relationship did not happen?
The heart will say – Allah did not listen to me. But the reality is – Allah answered your prayer, but in his own way.
Sometimes we consider something as our whole world, while Allah says – “Son, I know the whole universe, you are able to see only one corner.”
I was heartbroken. I felt as if something was missing. Then after a year, when Allah gave me what was best for me – then I realized that it was not a denial, it was a blessing.
Conclusion
So friends, the way to pray to Allah is not difficult, you just need honesty, clear intention and faith. The biggest test in love is waiting and patience – and the biggest reward is marriage.
Ask Allah for whatever you want. But have this much faith that whoever gives will be the best for you.
Surrender your heart to Him, then whatever happens, there will be only peace.
