Question

I love this girl very much but she is getting married to someone else. I realize that it is not meant to be but can I pray that she will be mine in heaven? Thanks for your help and may Allah reward you greatly for you great service to the muslim community.

Answer

You state you love the girl but she married another person.

Love is mutual and not unilateral. Jannah is a place of true love. Allah will grant you a partner in Jannah who will also love you. What will you enjoy of a person you love but she does not love you?

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
