Ibrahim Qureshi

She should be deeply committed to following the teachings of Allah- embodying a balanced approach—not leaning towards extremism or negligence. A key trait is a genuine passion for seeking knowledge- but it goes beyond just loving to learn- she should actively implement what she learns in her life. This commitment involves regularly engaging in the pursuit of knowledge- with a significant focus on Islamic studies- ideally in areas like Islamic psychology. However- studying any aspect of Islam—be it tafsir- hadith- fiqh -such as marriage- inheritance- zakat-- child-rearing- manners- or medicine—is equally valuable and encouraged. The method of learning can be flexible- whether through reading- watching educational videos- or pursuing formal education like degrees- certificates- or diplomas. What matters most is her consistent dedication to seeking knowledge- no matter how small- and she will have my full support in this endeavor. She should also be a hijabi and niqabi- reflecting her commitment to modesty in dress. An essential quality is the ability to understand and empathize. While it-s natural for spouses to have differences in opinion- valuing understanding over stubbornness is crucial for nurturing a strong emotional connection. This approach fosters mutual respect- effective communication- empathy- and compassion- while promoting personal growth and reinforcing trust within the relationship. Lastly- she should have a genuine interest in taking care of the home and children- demonstrating her commitment to nurturing a harmonious and caring family environment.
