السلام وعليكم و رحمة الله Born and raised in the blessed land of UAE, I am the second youngest of four siblings with three sisters and one brother. My elder brother is married and lives separately. We come from a humble background and lead a simple lifestyle based on Islamic principles. Religion has had a profound impact on me. I am constantly trying to improve my knowledge and understanding of Islam and strive to put in to practice what I learn into my daily life. I am more of a minimalist and do not acquire unnecessary things. I believe in the adage that “things that you own end up owning you”. They do take up valuable time in your life which can be spent in better pursuits. That does not mean that I am miserly as I do spend on quality and comfort. I do not get angry easily and manage to keep calm in a conflict. I prefer peace than being right. I like to keep myself occupied towards learning new skills or reaching a goal. Moreover I value the virtues of honesty, patience and kindness. I have travelled to many countries and bitten by travel bug as people might say. I plan on exploring new destinations with my spouse inshAllah. Travelling brings novelty and chance to interact with people of different world view.

According to the hadith from Al-Bukhari, the Prophet (s.a.w) said: A woman may be married for four reasons: for her property, her status, her beauty, and her religion; so try to get one who is religious, may you be blessed. In light of this guidance, I am seeking a wife who is strong in her faith and constantly striving to be a better muslim. I am not looking for a “perfect” companion. Everybody has their flaws and same is true for me. However, some of the qualities that I value is being optimistic and able to see the positive in different situations.
