How are folks meeting their future partners these days?
Assalamalaikum! I'm a sister born and raised in Hong Kong, and I've been thinking a lot about how Muslims are finding their spouses nowadays. My parents have tried reaching out to family friends and contacts to see if anyone knows a good match, but everyone seems a bit hesitant-no one wants to feel responsible if things don't work out. I've chatted with my friends, gone to local Muslim events, and honestly, it's tough because the Muslim community here is pretty small, and some are undocumented, which adds to the challenge. Even the so-called halal matchmaking platforms don't feel so halal sometimes; it seems like some people are just there to mess around or look for casual relationships instead of serious commitment. So, I'm curious: for those living outside Muslim-majority countries, how are you or people you know navigating the search for a spouse?
