Ahmed’s expectations from his life companion and her family
Ahmed is preferably looking for a girl from an affluent and renowned Urdu speaking family residing in UAE / GCC. It is preferred that the girl was born and raised in the UAE / GCC as she is more likely to have a similar mindset.
Ahmed wants a companion who has recently graduated and is willing to accommodate with his family. His expectations for a girl are simple – he is looking for a companion who can accommodate in his work/life routine. He likes to travel, he is passionate about his work and loves to enjoy nature in his free time. Ahmed loves his mom’s food and prefers traditional food over any other cuisine. Ahmed Hassan respects culture and is mindful of his religion. Moreover, he also respects others’ religious views and tries to accommodate everyone.
Ahmed Hassan respects women due to his strong upbringing and would give his future wife her full rights to work, study or do anything which is allowed by Islam. Whether the girl wants to work after marriage, it would not be an issue unless it affects family time. Ahmed Hassan loves kids and doesn’t want anything to compromise his family.
Ahmed Hassan doesn’t expect the girl to be perfect and know everything from day one, however she should have the attitude to learn new things and manages to live together as a joint family.
Finally, to save time for both families, here’s a list of things which he is not looking for:
• Girl from Non-Sunni Muslim families – e.g. Shias, Ismailis etc.
• Girl who is a Pakistani passport holder
• Girl whose first language is not Urdu
• Girl who can’t accommodate in a joint family
