00:00Shirin says, is there in a dua to get married? I'm getting old, 28 years of age, and no proposal
00:16is being finalized. I feel really sad, not only for me, but also for my parents, as they
00:23are getting old and always worried about me. Shirin, people have different tests in this
00:34life. You have a test, someone else may be tested with breast cancer, may Allah protect
00:46us all. Others may be tested in their security, where there are demonstrations and oppression
00:57from the government and killing and looting. In other countries, other people are tested
01:05by famine and drought. And in other countries, they are tested by poverty and being unable
01:16to find a good job. In other places, people are tested and oppressed due to their religion.
01:28They cannot go and pray. They cannot wear the hijab. Men cannot grow their beards. They
01:34are put in concentration camps, like the Nazis. They are oppressing them just simply
01:41because they say, my Lord is Allah. So, we on this earth are created to worship Allah
01:52Azza wa Jal. And part of worshipping Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala is to be patient and tolerant
02:00to His testing. So, Allah is testing us, who will do well. Your test is in your marriage.
02:14Allah did not send you a good proposal yet. What to do? Do you believe in predestiny?
02:23Yes. So, what will you do? Will you just sit idle and be depressed or move on? Live your normal
02:31life, like Allah told you to do. When it is predestined, it will come. And if it doesn't
02:39come, it is predestined, accepted. Your journey ends when you die.
