So you love a guy and feel like you two deserve to be together. But for some reason, it's not happening. And you're sitting down and wondering why Allah is doing this to you.
Well, sis.
How long have you known this guy? Have you spent 24 hours with him? In his head and heart? Do you actually know what's going on in there? Did you create this guy? Did you create yourself? Allah knows you and this guy better than you two know yourselves or each other. He knows what you have done today, where you were fifteen years ago, and what you're going to be doing twenty years from now.
Think about that. It's not about "today". It's not about tomorrow or one year from now. Marriage is about the FUTURE and no matter how you feel right now, you don't know who this person will become in the future and how you will feel about them then.
Look past this moment, right now...and ask yourself: how can I compare my knowledge and wisdom with that of Allah? Could there be more to the situation than what meets the eyes?
Love is not a fact or an unshakable truth. It is a feeling and it comes and goes. And as a feeling, it is not necessarily directed to those who deserve it. Allah knows who you should be with and who should be with you.
