How can I repent and change my outlook on marriage and the Arabian Gulf, and what is the ruling of Islamic law on the marriage websites through which I am searching for a husband from the Gulf, knowing that I am 17 years old?

It is advisable to attach oneself to Allah and rely upon Him, trusting in His choice, for Allah knows what is best for His servant. Favor with Allah is through piety, not nationalities or races, for "Indeed, the most noble of you in the sight of Allah is the most righteous of you." Caution is advised against websites that do not observe Islamic regulations regarding the relationship between men and women. Diligence in obedience and supplication is recommended, and there is no harm in using marriage websites that are Islamically regulated.
