๐ In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
๐ To Muslim females who are afraid to leave their homes,
Who fear the idea of marrying someone wrong,
Who have received marriage proposals but on and on
They rebuffed each guy who didn't look like "the right one",
Or who guess staying single is the best decision:
~•~
First off, you have freewill to make your own decisions.
In Islam there's no forced marriage. Your parents, siblings,
And elders can't force you to wed without your consent.
So it's fine to reject marriage proposals often
If those proposing don't seem sincere and appealing.
~•~
Why say yes to a guy who's known to dislike praying,
Who does drugs, enjoys clubbing, or who has frequent flings?
Why become the wife of a male who's still dependent
On his parents' income while he's proud of not working?
Why marry a criminal with unlawful earnings?
~•~
Yes, you don't need a man to feel complete from within.
True. One can stay happy without ever marrying.
Nonetheless, wouldn't you want to have your own children?
At least one child? A set of twins? A sweet companion?
Mahram and travel buddy? A close friend who's trusting?
~•~
With a husband you can have someone to confide in,
A teammate towards Jannah whose hugs are comforting,
And from each other you boost gratitude and patience,
While shielding yourself more from zina/fornication.
Pray for a good spouse and don't refuse Allah's blessings.

๐ Aisha RadhiAllahu 'anha narrated: I said, “O Messenger of Allah, should women be asked for their consent (permission) before marriage?” The Prophet SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "Yes." I said, “Indeed, sometimes a virgin is too shy to speak when asked.” The Prophet SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "Her silence (not refusing nor complaining) is her consent (sign that she accepts the marriage proposal)."
