Assalamu Alaikum

Mashallah, a proposal has just come for your daughter and this young lad is not a wealthy person or perhaps he doesn't earn that much

Subhanallah, should I reject him because he doesn't earn that much?

The answer is no. Look at whether he is responsible. Look at his Dean and his Ahlak.

How rich were you when you married your wife the mother of the child whom you're talking about?

Subhanallah and how wealthy were your forefathers when they married?

Many of us myself included when we married we were still relying on our own parents

Subhanallah and later on Allah blessed us so let's not make a mistake by saying to ourselves

I will not allow my child to marry because this person doesn't have so much of wealth or

he doesn't have a job that I would like him to have. Subhanallah if he is responsible and he is a brilliant person

who is going to take care of your child and you know that he is very respectable

let it happen. Inshallah because of the responsibility the connection with Allah and because of the fact that they are very

respectable Allah will open their doors as a result of that union

In Yakkunu Fukarah you Hennihi Allahum in Fadlihi Allah says in Surah to Nur if they are poor

Allah will grant them independence or Allah will enrich them through his own virtue

How many have Allah and has Allah enriched Subhanallah?

Allah has enriched millions of people after their marriages. How many of us are so hypocritical where when we were marrying

people overlooked the poverty we were in or the financial standing we were upon

Even though it may not have been so grand but today the same people are not allowing brilliant

brilliant proposals to be accepted simply because there is a shortfall of a dollar or two

May Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala not make us from among those who worship material items
