"How to Choose a Life Partner in Islam", the fourth khartirah from Shaykh Waleed Basyouni during taraweeh prayer 2025.

*Dating Prohibitions and Finding the Right Spouse:* In Islam, dating is not permitted, posing challenges in identifying the appropriate spouse. While traditional dating is prohibited, spending time with a potential spouse in public settings with proper supervision is encouraged. The family’s involvement is crucial for ensuring safety, guidance, and protection.

*Defining Desired Qualities in a Spouse:* Many young individuals lack clarity regarding their desired qualities in a partner. Defining essential values such as religious commitment, education, and lifestyle preferences is vital. Additionally, specific traits like physical preferences or personality type should be carefully considered.

*Parental Involvement and Support:* Parents should refrain from interfering in superficial preferences (e.g., skin tone or body type) and respect their child’s choices. However, parents can provide valuable insights by observing the potential spouse’s behavior and character.

*Evaluating the Potential Spouse:* Spending meaningful time conversing with the individual is crucial. Encouraging family members to meet the potential spouse can reveal aspects that the individual may overlook. Evaluating a person’s past accomplishments provides strong insights into their character and reliability.

*Recognizing Warning Signs and Red Flags:* Be vigilant for uncomfortable feelings or concerns; do not disregard red flags. If doubts arise, take the time to investigate further before committing. Emotional attachment can cloud judgment, so maintaining a balanced perspective is essential.

*Final Advice:* Follow your heart, but do not neglect your intellect. Love is important, but wisdom and thoughtful assessment ensure long-term success.
