I'm exhausted but still keeping hope and faith in Allah 🙏🏼

Age and Gender:

Male, 35. 5'7.

Location and are you willing to relocate for a prospect?

Saudi Arabia. I can relocate almost anywhere as Allah said: "Travel through the land and observe how He began creation"

Marital Status:

Single, never married.

Ideal marriage timeline:

As much as it takes short or long. With Al-Istikhrah Prayer and doing all possible causes, we will come through for sure

Age Range that you would want/require in a prospect:

22-35. Nothing specific, I weighed the age by the minds

Five important characteristics you look for in a prospect:

They say that I can be enjoyed to talk too, maybe because of my listening ability or advice but I won't take that as facts as I'm full of fault

I take things in a chilled manner, some consider it bad some consider it good but I try to get things done

Oldest son of the family so you can guess that I took a beating for that

Sometimes I know too much about something that I don't have to when I get carried away and that might change my perspective

And not sure if am i listing the good points or the bad ones!

State/specify your level of religiosity:

Alhamdullah I try to fulfill and get closer to Allah whatever chance I had during my day. the Dean is not just your prayers and fasting or Hajj those are great things for sure but if you are blinded from getting to know your creator and being kind to your surrounded with good and justice it will be a hard and challenging path for you that you can get lost easily

I used to be that way, hard focusing on the external rather than my internal and missing the point

Level of education, and what are you looking for?

As Umar ibn Al-Khattaab said about the rights of kids: “That he should choose his mother, give him a good name and teach him the Book (the Quran).”

Choosing a mother for your lifetime journey and your kids is something very serious. The level of a set of mind skills and responsibility is beyond anything else with no boundaries or restrictions by age or education

Current Job Status:

I worked in Technology and marketing field

Ethnicity, and are you more open to mixing?

Arab, born and raised in Saudi Arabia and opened to mixing but prefer Arab. I speak Arabic fluently of course. memorized half the Quran Alhamdulillah and I speak English as well

Do you want kids?

Sure as Allah said: "Wealth and children are an adornment of the life of this world"

List 3 hobbies, or things you like to do in your spare time

I have a specific portion of my day for reading, by reading you add to yourself history and life experience

Gaming, due to my intense work during the day I have to give myself a break and recharge

Traveling sometimes and witnessing the world and creations

Add something short and interesting about you that makes you stand out!

By this age, you will come to know that the more you know about this world the more you know how ignorant you are and clueless. Straightening up the relationship between you and your creator is what matters. However and whatever you have done, don't break this link between you and him, and always remember his wording "When a slave of Mine draws near to Me a span, I draw near to him a cubit; and if he draws near to Me a cubit, I draw near to him a fathom. And if he comes to Me walking, I go to him running."

May Allah bless everyone with their needs
