The answer

Marriage is a provision decreed by Allah. A Muslim should take the necessary means and entrust their affairs to Allah, such as making supplications. There is no harm in supplicating for the acceleration of marriage, as this does not contradict the prohibition of blameworthy hastiness that leads to despair and abandoning supplication. There is no specific supplication for marriage; rather, a Muslim should supplicate with what is appropriate for the situation. It is permissible for a woman to seek a righteous husband, while observing the Islamic etiquettes.
