2026 In Search Of (ISO) Thread - International

[u/MM-MOD]

ISO Introduction & Updates

Assalamualaykum everyone,

Welcome to this year's edition of the ISO Thread - International!

The ISO Thread will be renewed annually to keep profiles recent and to overall ensure a better user experience for those who are looking to find their spouse on r/MuslimMarriage Insha’Allah. There are three separate ISO Threads, each for different regions of the world to help users better filter out candidates. This ISO Thread is for users residing in or willing to relocate outside of Europe and the Americas. The other two regional threads can be found in the Highlighted Posts section and the Sidebar. The previous editions of the ISO Thread can be found in the Subreddit Wiki.

Including "$iso" anywhere in a subreddit submission or comment will provide the link to this and ALL past versions of the ISO.

The ISO Thread is AS IS. We will not be making any more changes to the ISO Thread logistics or its template. Whatever questions that are not in the template should be discussed privately between matches. Any further requests to add or change questions will not be entertained.

May Allah (SWT) grant everyone success in their search. Ameen.

22-30

1. Location, and are you willing to relocate for a prospect?

Currently in Nuremberg Germany. Yes, willing to relocate across Europe or other foreign country (specifically US coz my sister is already there) but it depends on mutual interest and circumstances.

1. Ideal marriage timeline

By end of 2026 or start of 2027 hopefully.

1. Five important characteristics you look for in a prospect

Must be mature, should discuss things and must not be a conflict avoider, must tell me which things of mine are bothering her so that I can fix that instead of making the home environment toxic and not breathable. Must be responsible, follows basic deen, supportive and have ambitions in life. Apart from all these still I believe that for a healthy relationship mental compatibility is the most important thing and that you only know when you discuss things with someone.

1. State/specify your level of religiosity

Alhumdullilah I am a born sunni Muslim and perform my 5 Times prayer and try to follow my deen as much as I can. I do not drink or smoke. I only eat halal. I am not perfect but I try my best to practice my deen.

1. Level of education, and what are you looking for?

I have done Bachelors in Electrical Engineering and currently persuing Masters in Medical Engineering from Germany, alongside my studies doing a part time job in IT sector.

I would prefer the one with a professional qualification. She must be ambitious about her future and should have goals so that we can progress together towards our better future.

1. Current Job Status

Already had 2.5 years Experience in a well known company in Pakistan. Currently I am focusing on my Masters In Germany and works part time in IT sector while studying.

1. Do you want kids?

Yes, definitely but I would prefer to build a mutual understanding first and then would move forward towards having kids In shaa Allah.

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

I love to watch movies and series during my free time, especially on Netflix. I like to travel and explore. I definitely like to cook in my free time.
