hi people, I’m or should I say we, meaning my family is quite shaky these days due to what happening because of us.
The the thing is my aunt (my father’s sister) has two sons. We’re two sisters, I’m the younger one. My elder sister is engaged to Bilal, my aunt’s elder son. But she (my elder sis) loves his younger brother Kashif. I like Bilal alot and wish that somehow this engagement breaks so we two (Bilal and I) can get together but Bilal loves my elder sister alot and is very happy with this engagement. Now my elder sis loves Kashif but the problem is that Kashif likes me.
If you’re confused then let me summarize. I love Bilal but he’s in love (and engaged) to my elder sister. My elder sister like Kashif but he’s in love with me.
A month ago all four of us found out about it and needless to say we’re in a very awkward position.
We tried applying that love-someone-who-loves-you-not-whom-you-love saying but it didn’t work out. When I told Bilal that, “look my sister doesn’t love you but I do so as that rule states, we should be together.” But he sharply replied back and said, “well I don’t love you but my brother Kashif does. Why don’t you be with him and don’t ruin our engagement.”
Now we don’t know what to do. Either way, anyway someone would be loosing something and someone.
All of you need to find yourself new guys and girls.
You are all being silly and running after people who do not want to spend their lives with you. Get out of it as soon as possible.
I would say you should all cancel it all, for the sake of the family. No matter what order you marry each other in, it will end in at least two of you feeling unhappy and worse, with inappropriate feelings for your own in-laws.

next Rabia?
[/QUOTE]
Yes Rabia of Basra
she used to talk to Allah (swt) and say this:
I have loved Thee with two loves, a selfish love and a love that is worthy (of Thee).
As for the love which is selfish, I occupy myself therein with remembrance of Thee to the exclusion of all others,
As for that which is worthy of Thee, therien Thou raisest the veil that I may see Thee.
Yet is there no praise to me in this or that,
But the praise is to Thee, whether in that or this
Maj I am concerned about you. You think you will be the next Rabia because you hate men and won't get married or is their some other reason to it? Why do you hate men by the way?
