Comments on: Introduction To “Finding Your Other Half” DVD Program http://www.practimate.com/FindYourMrRight/Blog/introduction-to-finding-your-other-half-dvd-program Find Your Mr. Right Blog Fri, 16 Apr 2010 20:02:15 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.1 hourly 1 By: Megan http://www.practimate.com/FindYourMrRight/Blog/introduction-to-finding-your-other-half-dvd-program#comment-697 Megan Tue, 09 Feb 2010 19:00:12 +0000 http://www.practimate.com/FindYourMrRight/Blog/?p=12#comment-697 Bismillah For those of you who asked, yes the program is still beneficial for those of you without a mahram. This along with the "Find Your Mr. Right" program is especially important for sisters on their own. As a convert myself, I totally understand the challenges of not having someone that can help in this role, and it does propose a different set of challenges. (And you are right, after being used to handling everything else on my own, from job interviews, projects, organizations, school, etc - it does feel natural to just do things alone in this area too..) However, this DVD program is an ENTIRE system regarding the initial marriage process, and even if you don't have a family member as a mahram (and an imam too busy to really help.) Am I will be the first to tell you that the moment you think there is someone you are interested in, you NEED to FIND someone who can act as a third party between the two of you. Please do sign up for the seminar, and the DVD comes with that. If you have nay further questions, email me at sisters@practimate.com Bismillah

I want to ask something from the Shaykh. A brother sent his parents to my home to meet with my parents as he was interested in marrying me. After his parents visited us, we did not get any response from them. It's been seven weeks now. The brother himself is confused as to why his parents are taking so long in making up their mind, and he is still waiting for them to make the decision. I am, however, getting very impatient. Am I supposed to keep waiting for him or am I supposed to move forward with my life? Jazak Allah khair. Assalamu alaykum wa rehmatullah. I want to ask something from the Shaykh.

The DVD sounds like a great program, but I am unwilling for one reason. The Shaikh does not seem prepared to deal with the issue of sisters who do not have a mahrem. Part of the reason we make the first move on our own or initiate contact through the net is because we don't have anybody to look after our interests. When I was in the States, I had about three imams looking for a spouse for me. This yielded no results. Not to mention the matriomonial sessions/retreats I attended that also had no result. Now, my situation is different because I live in an Islamic country. I understand that only the judge can be my mahrem. How can this person supervise the "matrimonial" process? He just signs the marriage license and that's it. So, it seems that I must do some independent searching myself. I understand this program is geared towards Muslims living in North America from traditional (comes from a Muslim family) background, but I think many Muslims could benefit from a broader scope: Muslims from non-Muslim families, Western Muslims living in Muslim lands. Insha Allah, I hope you will take my feedback and incorporate it into your program. Fi amanillah. My comment is very similar to previous one.

Nevertheless, i guess if i start looking at the DVD now, i could start implementing the advice as soon as possible before marriage. Insha Allah. May Allah accept this from you all.

Few questions I have: 1- How does someone not in the US purchase the DVD? 2- The Sheikh talks a lot about mahram. I don't have one, unfortunately. I am all alone in this world. Can the program help someone like me to find my other half? 3- Is this program designed to help men and women from different age groups? Or only those below 30? Jazakumullahukhairan. Assalamualaikum

The program looks really good. Few questions I have:

1- How does someone not in the US purchase the DVD?
2- The Sheikh talks a lot about mahram. I don’t have one, unfortunately. I am all alone in this world. Can the program help someone like me to find my other half?
3- Is this program designed to help men and women from different age groups? Or only those below 30?

Jazakumullahukhairan.
