Advice from married folks: What did you learn while waiting for your spouse?

Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh Brothers and sisters who sincerely prayed to God to bless you with a husband or wife and are now married, I’d like to ask you a few questions: - What wisdom did you gain during that waiting period? - What happened between the dua and actually meeting your life partner? - If someone is still praying and wants advice, what would you tell them? - Did any of you pray for a wife or husband even though it seemed almost impossible? Like, for example, because of family opposition, tough financial circumstances, or other things. May God reward you and benefit others through you.

Subhan Allah, that waiting period taught me contentment. I was making duaa fully certain it would be answered, and God compensated me with a kind husband after I felt like it was just over, you know.

The wisdom I came out with is that God is generous, but we gotta be sincere in our prayers and grateful no matter what. I prayed a lot, did istikhara so many times, and then all of a sudden I found my destined share in a halal way.

I learned that God tests my patience and trust in Him-I used to think it was impossible because of my financial situation, but after years of praying, He blessed me with a good husband, better than I ever imagined.

Wa alaikum assalam, I swear that waiting period was a lesson in patience and trusting God. I used to make duaa every night prayer without rushing it, and relief came from where I least expected. My advice: make duaa with full confidence.

The most important thing is to make duaa with a heart full of certainty, my financial situation was really tough and despite that, my Lord honored me. Duaa for someone in their absence is a huge secret.
