Making dua to marry a married man

· 3 Safar 1438 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

According to Islam, can a woman pray to Allah to marry a specific person? Is it prohibited to want to marry a married man in Islam? Is it a sin to pray to Allah to marry a married man? If a woman finds a groom according to her wish but the groom is married already then what should she do?

Answer

Rather make du`aa that Allah gives you a person that is better for your deen and dunya.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
