AISHA MUHAMMAD 💋
My Arranged Marriage
"Aisha come down love." Oemie (mom) called out. "Na'am (yes) oemie." I said.
When I came home today I was under the impression everything was going to be okay but my oemie, whose name is ummi Kulthoom and everyone calls her oemie told me that my soon to be husband is coming over later tonight.
"Yes oemie." I asked once I reached downstairs and walked to the kitchen.
I am Aisha Muhammad age 25 and soon to be married Inshaa Allah (if Allah wills). I am not ready to become a wife but if it is put out for me I will abode to the Decree of Allah. My oemie (mom) and Abee (dad) Yusuf Muhammad believes that I am ready, all I know about my future husband is that he is rich for starters which is not what I want.
I feel this marriage is for money and maybe not love? Anyhow I didn't not refuse either, second fact I know is his name Tahir Jacobs age 28. I know nothing about him Subhanallah!
"Aisha you standing there day dreaming. Come help me here in the kitchen." Oemie said brining me out of my thoughts. "Aisha are you ready for tonight?" Oemie asked and I shook my head. "I'm nervous actually." I told her, and she stops what she is doing.
"Aisha, beta everything will be okay In Shaa Allah. Ameen." Oemie says and kiss my forehead.
2 hours later
"Go get done sweetie in 20 minutes the groom to be and his family will arrive." Oemie said. "Yes Oemie." I said and headed upstairs to get ready.
20 minutes later.
"Aisha they have arrived." Abee said entering my room after knocking. "Okay Abee." I said placing my shoes on before heading out after my Abee.
"Asalaamu alaykum." I greeted softly before taking a seat next to oemie. "Aisha this is aunty Warda and uncle Tauriq. One the left is Tahir." Abee said. "Nice to meet you beti (daughter)." Aunty Warda said and I smiled saying likewise.
During supper and desert Munier came in the house.
"Asalaamu Alaykum." He greeted. "Wa Alaykum salaam son. How was work?" Abee asked as he greeted uncle Tauriq and Tahir before kiss greeting aunty Warda and Oemie. "Work was alhamdulilah Abee. No complaints." He said.
Munier (30) is my eldest brother 5 years older then me and might I add very over protective. People might say that a brother doesn't love his baby sister but in reality he adores me.
"Aisha how was afternoon school?" Brother Munier asked me. "Alhamdulilah Boeta." I replied.
After we had our supper our parents went to speak in the lounge about my soon to be husband and marriage.
"Aisha." Oemie called out to me once they had completed talking. "Yes oemie." I said as I entered the room.
My boeta and boetie sat on the couch dissatisfied.
"Aisha the ruling to your wedding is in two months." Abee said.
I looked shock at what Abee just said though I was not happy at all but I said absolutely nothing, is he just going to give me away like that? Not long after my wedding day was decided for the 4 May which is in literally two months from now, I went to my room and cried. Now I understand why my brothers are against my marriage. 2 months is not easy and it flew by fast. Tahir and his parents left just before I left for my room.
Munier and Muneeb came into my room.
So Muneeb is my boetie who is currently 28. Us siblings were always very close since young. I'm Getting Married In Two Months!! I am so paranoid right now.
My bed sank in on both sides.
"Sis we will fix this baby sister. We promise." Boeta Munier said. "Its not going to work. Abee made up his mind already." I said crying. "We will try to not let this marriage take place okay." Boeta said and all I did was nod my head.
They stayed in my room until I fell asleep. The next morning I went downstairs and heard arguing at the breakfast table.
"Abee how can you just decide Aisha gets married tomorrow and she has no say in it. Oemie you allowing your only daughter to get married for business and not for love how could you do this to her?! She is your daughter!!" Munier shouted. "Munier enough! Aisha will marry Tahir and that is final. Your oemie and myself had an arranged marriage and we fell inlove." Abee said banging his hand on a hard surface. "Yet Oemie and Abee fell in love not on business and it doesn't mean Aisha will fall in love with him." Munier said. "Munier son enough. Your father's words were already said." Oemie said.
Tears were rolling down my face due to what I just heard. My marriage is not for love but for business. I heard a chair slide across the floor.
"I cannot believe you both." Munier said before coming out of the kitchen and saw me by the stairs.
He stood there with pity and sadness in his eyes, I cried even harder, placing my hand over my mouth and running back to my room. I laid on my bed hugging my pillow and cried. I heard my door open and my bed sank in.
"I am sorry Aisha I let you down. I tried changing his mind,but he wouldn't budge." Boeta Munier said. "I don't want to marry him Boeta. I can't. Its... Its noy right. Please beg Abee! Please I cant marry him."I said and hugged him so tight.
"How about we spend the day together, just you, Muneeb and myself?" He said wiping my tears. "I would love that."I said giving him a small smile.
I got up from the bed and washed my face before heading downstairs.
"Asalaamu Alaykum." I greeted my Oemie and Abee. "I am taking Aisha and Muneeb out." Boeta said and left the house.
"I'll see Oemie and Abee later Inshaa Allah." I said greeting them again before following Boeta Munier out.
Not long after we got into the car Muneeb came out of the house and got into the front seat next to the driver, while I sat at the back.
"So where we going?" He asked. "Drive around the mountains and go for ice-cream or any fun thing to do to relieve stress." Boeta Munier said. "Cool. So Aisha how is things at work?" Muneeb asked. "It's calm and alhamdulilah... After all Imra is my favourite student actually, I have meeting with her parents on Monday In Shaa Allah." I said smiling.
