Does a girl's rejection of many suitors without thought deprive her of the destiny Allah has ordained for her?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
Everything Allah has decreed will inevitably come to pass, and there is no repeller of His decree. Allah has decreed things with their causes. Thus, marriage is decreed with its causes, such as attention to the prospective spouses and serious consideration. Similarly, spinsterhood and not marrying are decreed with their causes, among them rejecting suitors without consideration. We are commanded to take hold of the means to attain what benefits us and repel what harms us.
