Q & A

What are the four criteria for selecting a spouse in Islam according to the Ustadz?

The four criteria are: 1) Physical appearance (beauty), 2) Wealth (financial stability), 3) Lineage (ancestry), and 4) Religion (faith).

Why is physical appearance considered but not prioritized when choosing a spouse in Islam?

Physical appearance is considered important because one will live with the person daily, but it should not be the priority. Beauty is subjective and temporary, and it can change over time.

How does the Ustadz explain the importance of wealth in choosing a spouse?

Wealth is allowed to be considered when choosing a spouse, but materialism, or choosing someone purely for money, is discouraged. Wealth should not come at the cost of ethics or religious principles.

What does the Ustadz say about the importance of ancestry when selecting a spouse?

Ancestry (lineage) is important but should not be the primary consideration. Even someone with noble ancestry can have descendants who are not virtuous. It's important, but not the main factor.

Why does the Ustadz emphasize religion as the most important criterion for choosing a spouse?

Religion is the most important criterion because a person's faith ensures they will live a righteous and harmonious life. With strong faith, a spouse will uphold moral and spiritual values in the marriage.

What does the Ustadz say about marriage between different religions?

The Ustadz advises that marriage between different religions should be avoided, especially for Muslims, as it could lead to conflicts regarding the upbringing of children. It's better to marry someone of the same faith.

What does the Ustadz mean by 'temporary beauty' in the context of marriage?

Temporary beauty refers to the fact that physical attractiveness fades over time. A person may be attractive at a young age but may not retain the same appearance as they grow older, making it a less reliable basis for choosing a spouse.

How does the Ustadz suggest one should approach marriage if they are still single in their late 20s or early 30s?

The Ustadz encourages people not to despair if they haven't yet found a spouse by 2022. They should keep their faith in Allah and continue searching for someone who fulfills the criteria in the right way.

Why is it not recommended to choose a spouse solely based on financial stability?

While financial stability is important, it is not recommended to prioritize it above other factors like religion and ethics. Choosing a spouse for their wealth alone could lead to materialistic motives, which are discouraged in Islam.

What message does the Ustadz give to those who are seeking a spouse?

The Ustadz advises people to prioritize religion when selecting a spouse, as it will lead to a good and prosperous marriage. Physical appearance, wealth, and lineage are secondary considerations.
