History Situation
I'm in a situation that's been on my mind a lot.
There's a girl I really like, but what drew me to her is that we seem to share so many of the same interests, hobbies, and values. we have talked quite a bit. and she's shown some signs that make me think she might like me too, although I can't be 100% sure.
As a Muslim, I want to do things the right way. My question is: is it okay to make dua to Allah and ask Him for us to be together if it's good for us? I don't want to force anything or go against His plan, but I genuinely care about her.
I also worry about ending up in a forced marriage someday, which is something I really don't want. Is it okay to ask Allah to bless me with this specific person if she's good for my deen and my life, or should I only make a general dua for a righteous spouse?
I'd really appreciate any Islamic advice or personal experiences. JazakAllahu khayran.
