Family & Marriage
What should I do if my grandmother is forcing me to marry someone against my will because I'm in my 30s?
My grandmother is forcing me to marry someone against my will because I'm in my 30s. Number one, you do not have to marry somebody you do not want to marry. Number two, never marry somebody you do not want to marry. Number three, never get forced to marry someone you do not want to marry. So I hope I've made that clear. If you do not want to marry somebody, do not marry them. Do not get peer pressured into it. Do not be forced into it. Do not be encouraged into it if you're not happy with that particular individual. It's your life. It's your marriage. It's not your grandmother's life. It's not your grandmother's marriage. Yes, you know, family members can encourage and so on, but they should not be forcing you. Do not be peer pressured into it. And number two, 30 is young. Don't worry. You know, 30 is still young. Keep making sure that Allah will provide the right person at the right time for you.
