This came at just the right time for me. For the past 4 years I was dating a Muslim man in hopes of getting married to him. I was so in love. Prior to this I hadn’t known any Muslim people and he taught me a lot about the faith, I was already dressing modestly and a lot of my values aligned with traditional Muslim values anyway so I planned on taking my shahada soon and becoming a revert to officially marry him. About a month ago I figured out he had a wife and kids back in his home country. I was so devastated. I’ve been so bitter and angry but now I can accept he just wasn’t the right person for me and there is someone else out there who will appreciate me. I don’t know how I’ll find this person but I trust Allah will guide me. Thank you ladies! I have a lot to think about as I go on my journey.

I'm sorry you went through all these. I'm glad you did not allow it to affect your belief. Some wrong people come into our life for a right reason we can't see immediately. They come and shape us into the right mode for the right person to be able to come into our lives. I hope I make sense. Move on and stay firm. One day you will look back and understand why Allah allowed this to happen. I believe it will end in smile in sha Allah. Stay strong.

@Franca Wong funny how you think that responding to your rude comment with the same energy means I have a bad soul, you should really re-evaluate your life.

The childhood trauma and healing questions are so so so important. Forget "What's your favorite color?" and get in deep conversations instead. Be attentive to how the potential spouse behave with their parents, friends, strangers. Notice how they react when they are presented with a problem or resistance. Do they communicate efficiently? Do they close down and give you the silence treatment? Do they pay attention to your opinions, values... Emotional intelligence is something I wish I was taught before getting married and I would have looked for in my partner. Take your time to ask those questions. Look for actions that show congruency between words and behavior. ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS.

Let us point out what the Qur'anic verses on polygamy actually say: "If you fear that you shall not be able to deal justly with the orphans, marry women of your choice, two or three, or four; but if you fear that you shall not be able to deal justly (with them) then only one." (Al-Nisa', 4:3) A subsequent verse states: "You are never able to be fair and just between women even if that were your ardent desire." (Al-Nisa', 4:129) It is clear from this verse that: First, the Qur'an does not give men the blanket right to have more than one wife. Polygamy is not a right, but a responsibility to ensure social justice for orphans. What Allah has granted is in fact a restriction on an existing practice of that time when men could marry as many wives as they wanted. Second, because polygamy is not a right, Allah placed conditions on its practice. There is an overriding concern for justice in this short verse, and conditions are set to ensure that justice is done. Condition A: Polygyny is permitted within the context of war and orphans. It is permitted only if the men fear they would not be able to deal justly with the orphans. Condition B: The man who wants to be polygynous must have the capacity to be fair and just to all his wives. The verse is a call for just conduct towards women, not a right for men to fulfill their alleged lustful desires or their egos. And just treatment here means more than a man's financial capacity to support more than one wife: He must be fair in all ways, including in the time, support, and companionship he provides to his wives and children. Condition C: If the man fears he cannot deal justly with all his wives, then Allah advocates that he should marry only one as this will ensure equality. This is explicitly stated in the verse

I am watching this from Somalia. This is very important topic but let me add this ; a year back when I was in my last year of the university in a certain period the lecturer told us " I know you all have someone in your mind that you would love to marry, but that kind of person only exists in your mind and hearts . You need to give up something , you need to make the list of the qualities you look for in women less otherwise you people will be single forever ". After one year I came to know that everyone of us has to give up something in order to marry. Greetings to you guys.

I think something really important that is often overlooked is emotional maturity and rationality and being present. Will this person acknowledge your thoughts and your feelings in a healthy and responsive way or do they have defective mechanisms of processing emotion or reacting to conflict that will leave issues unresolved? Will they be able to step outside of their opinions and what they've always assumed, to relate to your point of view about things?

I'm a woman and when I see another woman who is confident and has built herself and is doing something with her life like maybe helping the community in some way, no matter how old is she and she hasn't gotten married yet, I do admire her and I feel that she is the perfect wife to anyone because she is not just sitting there waiting to a husband to come.

Hello sisters. I am in my mid 20s and unfortunately, I am already divorced twice. By listening to some of the topics you’re raising here are exactly points that I ignored after my first marriage that actually lended me to divorce the second time. I have always thought that I have too much expectation from men and that is why my marriages ended. But I think I know better. Thank you very much for this talk. It’s very helpful for me and insha Allah I know to actually heel myself and self actualize myself before I engage in a new relationship.

I understand looking inwards before finding a partner but from my experience some things that I thought would bother me didn't when I started meeting potential suitors. From meeting people, I have learnt more about my dealbreakers and I have a stronger stance on it. I have also arrived at new dealbreakers after courting because I didn't even know a thing like that would become an issue for me. So I feel like meeting people/ courting helps you understand yourself better.

@@Rantitoutloud i think they're trying to say that you're constantly meeting people and letting them go because you're trying to fill a void in you that cannot be filled by another person. Something missing that your trying to fill that goes beyond another person.

10:15 that reminded me of another interesting talk by Dr Tariq Habib discussing when girls didn't get the affection of their fathers (!!) And how this can negatively influence them in choosing a future husband - they might chose a man who they seem able to replace that void of not having had a "present" dad role in their childhood and not searching instead for values of a husband. And this journey of self discovery and healing is an often overlooked one........

Inshallah this divorced sister will marry her beautiful divorced brother in 2021...great topics, ladies! Happy to be enjoying Season 3 of Honest Tea Talk!!

Hello, I'm absolutely delighted that you all are back. I've missed you all so much. You bring amazing inspiration 🙌 to subjects for Christian and Muslim females alike. You influence us all. Please please continue my friends and I look forward the episodes. Thanks again.

You are so inspiring Masha’Allah! May Allah reward you for being honest and real! Love to listen to you!

Love this series! You ladies are so articulate with your thoughts and cover important topics often brushed upon or not considered that serious within our community. Keep up the great work and may Allah bless you for your efforts!

The girl in green is super intelligent!!! You girls are great, very good video 😘

Salam ladies. Thank you for this, I'm currently going through the searching process. Its been...going. These reminders are just what I need now. So thanks and keep on being the fabulous you!

there should be a part 2 of this episode I always feel so blessed by listening to you ladies. God bless you all abundantly

This is the type of shows we need more on KZread.....clear,concise,honest conversations for the young generation to take heed! Keep it up

JazakAllah khair this was sooo refreshing and helpful. Please, please do a part 2 more on the questions to ask!!! Salam and duas to all you amazing women!

The part with asking him about his PAST was really deep and insightful👏🏻

Thank you for being so candid and saying what we are all thinking. I have been reflecting on this alot, especially coming from a narcisstic family and the need to heal is so important before finding a spouse. One thing i learnt about being around/raised by narcissists is you either end up mirroring them, or you reduce yourself and serve them..and this only mirrors in future relationships if its not dealt with. On a journey to accepting myself, knowning my boundaries and sticking to my priciples. InshAllah.

We seriously need part 2,3,4,5..... i really enjoyed this, jazaakumullah khairan sisters. May Allah reward you for this

Summayah input is just everything! Thank you ladies for this plateforme

Ma Sha Allah, there are so many women out there who need guidance along these lines, you all are helping all of us, thankyou so much

Loved this! 🙌🏽 definitely need multiple parts especially on the questions you can ask

The Only thing that i can say after listening to you guys for the first time... Is you people have given voice to atleast my major thoughts... Thank you guys for being the real.

Being yourself, and knowing yourself is so important. Lower your standards for no one, because most men will not do it for women. I love it “women can also see”. 😂 Yes we have feelings and eyes too. I hate that society feels that we should accept a guy even if he is unattractive, while we have to look like a barbie with an expiration date...”if not married by this time, discard” 🤦🏾‍♀️

Having these conversations is very essential. Thank you for bring it to limelight.

Love you three, sisters. You've stimulated my thoughts. Waiting for the next one. And , I love the CG too, the way you appear on the screen and grab your coffee. Love it too much.

Brilliant discussion sisters, keep up the good work, you are guys doing amazing job.

How to eliminate toxic culture and follow Islam better with your spouse is a huge important topic to cover in the future inshallah because in places like Pakistan, India etc. Many families follow old traditions and always ingrain societies expectations and gender roles leading to toxic masculinity and toxic femininity to the younger generations. This is a problem that must be discussed because it ruins marriages, relationships, friendships, teens, kids, and this generation! In fact this culture contradicts Islam itself! Please shed light and advice to this serious matter as it will help millions struggling with Deen vs toxic culture especially when it comes to marriage and spouse relationships! May Allah bless us all and guide us and grant us Jannatul Firdous Ameen!!!

This talk is much needed in our community. Thank you so much! Would you consider discussing modern dating? Using dating apps and the like?

This couldn't be more perfect! Thank you ladies for sharing knowlege and great things to look for in marriage!

This is definitely eye opening I am so grateful to be in your space sisters. Jazzakillah kheyr. ❤️❤️❤️

Asking about childhood is an amazing point! Mashallah ♥️🌿

Oh my God, can you do a second part ASAP!! I needed this

Hello ladies! Another amazing talk as always! I think one question which is absolutely paramount to ask is what their relationship is like with their parents/ siblings. That will give you a clue as to what kind of person they’ll be in your family unit. If they hold resentment for their family and haven’t evolved out of their childhood wounds with maturity and awareness they’re not going to be the best husband, father, son in law or brother in law for you and your family.

yes to further parts!!!

Shukran. These sisters are inspiring, realistic and transparent. This is a very important discussion. May Allah reward you with goodness in the Dunia and Akhirah. JazakaAllah

I liked the ep. However I don't think it was that realistic to tell divorced sister's to not lower their standards . It's a fact that most men won't consider a divorcee with children . So if you are to get married you would have to lower your standards. I wish it didn't have to be this way but many men know that there are a heap of good women who won't be divorced or with children . Shame the quality of men rarely matches the women

That's a generalisation. Yes, there are men who won't, but that's not most men. Divorced women are not less than and shouldn't be made to feel like they don't have a right to have standards for themselves and their children. If anything, I (LaYinka), think divorcees should have higher standards because they're remarrying with themselves and their kids in mind.

There are plenty of women who reject good men just because of other factors that has nothing to do with their good character but the women don’t care and overlook their good character and traits just because he may not have the looks or status they are seeking. So please don’t make silly untrue statements like this.

Amazing discussion ladies, may Allah reward you for this good deed. I agree on the part 2,3, 4, 5, there is a need (a thirst actually) for such open honest discussions. Now, to all the women out there, please do not lower your standards, have faith. If we as a collective demand better, we will get better, because we deserve sooo much better. I deserve the best and you deserve the best. To be loved, respected and honoured in the way that you want and need. This is not a fantasy, it is realistic, if you believe it to be. Continue on your healing journey, love, respect and honour yourself. ❤🌹

YESSS loved it!! Definitely sharing with my friends!! 😍 Thank you so much sisters, JazakAllah!!

The part about the dealbreakers is so true though - in the long run - it’s not just that they build up. It’s also when the infatuation or the excitement during the initial period wears off it’s the little things that flare up/surface/take precedence and become a real issue that can have a huge impact on the relationship.

Assalaamu Alaykum, another insightful and much-needed episode during these times especially! Barak Allahu feek for providing this as part of another exciting season, may Allah continue to put barakah in these episodes and that people act upon the guidance from the Quran and Sunnah whilst having the correct understanding of the Companions, Ameen. Having said that, I would like to suggest the next possible topic to cover in the upcoming episodes, that is either the topic of how the wedding night should be and how it can be practiced according to the sunnah as unfortunately many etiquettes have sadly been forgotten around this area, or secondly, the topic of how to balance love and worship in terms of not being obsessed with your spouse which can lead to shirk! I think these could be very practical and beneficial to those looking to get married and to those who are currently married. Keep up the great work!

This episode has just been like the beautiful poem that has touched my heart so beautiful.

I’m so happy you’re back! What an insightful conversation mashallah ❤️

Just came across your channel.Lovely topic ladies. I know alot of people who need to hear this.

Thanks ladies us single need to hear these kinda of conversation May Allah SWT reward you guys Allahuma Ameen 🙏🏾🤲🏾😊

Makes perfect sense being yourself and if u have a package then it has to be accepted, the culture of the home if the outsider is willing to take on the role of potentially being a step dad. Whether the kids can also accept another man top

Be true to yourself be honest caring loving & humble. Men will appreciate you for this. Honesty from day one is so important.
