Worried I'll never find a spouse as a new Muslim

Assalamu alaikum. I really want to marry a fellow Muslim, but honestly, I don't know anyone. I dream of having a family and sharing my life with a husband, but since I embraced Islam, it feels like my chances have gotten so small. I don't have a Muslim community around me-it's just me in my daily circle. The thought of being alone forever scares me. I've heard people say, just make dua and trust Allah, but I keep fearing that maybe marriage isn't written for me, no matter how much I want it.

Allah wouldn't put this desire in your heart if it wasn't meant for you. Keep making that dua, sis. You're not alone in this feeling.

I'm in a similar situation-new Muslim, no Muslim family around. It's tough, but I've started joining online Islamic groups. It helps with the loneliness. Have you tried that?

Sister, I completely understand your pain. I'm a revert too, living in a place with few Muslims. But remember, Allah's plan is perfect. Maybe He's preparing you and your future spouse right now. Stay strong.

Honestly, it broke my heart reading this because I felt the same for so long. Then I met my husband at a small masjid event miles away. Don't underestimate the power of putting yourself out there, even online.

Your naseeb will find you when you least expect it, insha'Allah. Focus on your deen and don't lose hope.
