Is it permissible to marry a woman who is superior in her religiosity and commitment, and is it advisable to marry someone who gets upset over the most trivial matters and remains grim-faced despite being content with the bare minimum?

The answer

Islam has blocked paths to theamiss, such as lowering the gaze, guarding one's chastity, and prohibiting seclusion. It has also forbidden the establishment of a relationship between a man and a woman outside of marriage. There is no blame upon you in marrying the woman mentioned; rather, you should strive for it, as the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "So win the one who is religious, you will prosper." Her quick emotional sensitivity and introversion do not diminish her, as long as she possesses good character and religious devotion. Seek Allah's guidance through Istikhara, propose to her, and formalize your union with a legitimate Islamic marriage contract.
