Question:
Assalam alaikum,
My parents are forcing me to marry someone I don’t know. I keep refusing but they have even joined the alliance now I am being told that I have to marry her. I don’t know her and I don’t want to marry her. I dislike her even more now. In afew months they will take me to [private] to marry her. What do I do, is she the right one for me? I barely know her name and I have always had someone else in mind who I want to marry. Please, can you help me to know what is right?
Answer:
Alaykum Salam,
Communicate with your parents and if their plan still goes through then give it your best try and Allah will put blessing in it in sha Allah. Love will grow, it does not precede marriage.
