teaching her family in Damascus or Dubai?

Question:

I didn’t find work yet in uae
my engaged’s brothers in Dubai said it could take 4 up to 6 month until I could marry
People here want to help to find work but I feel nothing happen and I won’t get along with any work
should I go back to Damascus searching for a bad payed job and search for a Sheykh who speak to her family and teach her family
the aya:(MAY BE I ALSO FIND A SHEYKH HERE IN DUBAI WHO CAN TEACH HER TWO BROTHERS HERE IN DUBAI)
And marry such of you as are solitary and the pious of your slaves and maid-servants. If they be poor, Allah will enrich them of His bounty. Allah is of ample means, Aware.
and to teach them the following ahadith
Al-Mustadrek ala Al-Sahihain, Hadith Nr.2739/
Al- Mustadrek ala Al-Sahihain, Hadith Nr.2678/
Al-Mustadrek ala Al- Sahihain, Hadith Nr. 2677

Answer:

wa `alaykum salam,

These folks surely know these ayats and hadith, you don’t need to educate them in book knowledge. On the other hand, I advise myself, as Mawlana Shaykh Muhammad Hisham Kabbani advised us, “do not be like a salmon fish, always fighting the current.” Six months is not long to become established in a place such as Dubai, where normally a foreigner cannot achieve anything, so be patient and try to go along with your fiance’s family’s wishes. If not, the marriage will never work, as eastern cultures have fixed and clearly-defined values and expectations. If you don’t conform with those values (and they give you as a foreigner some leeway), you cannot become part of the family. If all this is too overwhelming consider the alternatives: return to the west and seek out a wife, hit and miss…

Mawlana Shaykh Muhammad Hisham Kabbani recommends to recite: Ya Fattah x100 and Ya Razzaq x100 daily for provision.
