If someone who was suffering from a terminally ill disease, such as cancer, were to propose to you, would you still marry him/her even though you know your time together may last for just a short time?

The mother of a friend of mine is trying to arrange her to be married to her best friend's son who is suffering from cancer and who doctors say may just have a couple of months to live. The parents are trying to fulfill a dying wish of the guy to be married before his time is up.

Thanks for sharing the story. I have not heard of it before but it is a pity that the family members of the Prophet (pbuh) were killed. Goes to show that if Allah has decreed something, noone or nothing can change or prevent it. There is no power or might except by Allah's Will.

salaam, i remember one more thing.

marriage is "rehmat" from the allmighty, i just was thinking that maybe he can be cured after marriage.

it may sound strange, but such things happened and can happen.

for example, in the time of the holy prophet (pbuh), hazrat ameer muawiya was told by the prophet that his childeren
would kill the childeren of the prophet (pbuh).

good reply, especially the view that she may want to help him complete his iman. This is something personal and i think only she can decide herself because the aftermath of such a marriage will be borne by her.

Being young, she is a bit afraid that she may remain single all her life, as in general, most men prefer unmarried women. On top of that, she still has to look after her in-laws even after the demise of her husband as she will be considered as being part of his family.

salaam aleikum,

difficult sitiuation, people marry to live a life, have childeren e.g., but what to do if u know that your partner will leave u soon?

islam does not force her in any way to marry him, but she can do him a favor to complete his "imaan" (as the prophet (pbuh) said, if she wants.

there is no law in islam to force her.
