Apart from looks, personality, sense of humour, good voice, height…waighara waighara…how much do you expect your hubby to earn ? How much is enough? 6 digits salary in £££££ssss, anywhere near enough? Or do you expect your hubby-to-be slightly more richer than this ?:aq:
PS: Reason why i stated 6 figure is because that’s the very least many girls expect from their hubbies, right?
Re: How much is enough?
It all depends if you're bestowed with contentment in your heart. There're no limit to wishlists!
May Allah swt help us all be contented and satisfied with whatever distribution of rizq He's decided for us. Aamin
Re: How much is enough?
How about working on the personality and character first? That's worth way more than a salary of six figures.
Re: How much is enough?
I dont remember my parents making any demands or setting standards regarding a man's salary.
So far, their criteria has been:
Religion, Education, Family, Honesty and Responsibility.
All they ask is that you be able to back up what you claim.
Personally, I dont want him to be rich before he marries me. I always feel like thats not my money if I didnt help make it.
Re: How much is enough?
Yup, that is quite true. If a PhD. with a salary of six figures is disrespectful and abusive and brings diamonds and flowers whenever he feels guilty, then that would be a pretty sad situation.
I really agree with the replies above. Even the looks don't matter if a person is caring and respectful.
Re: How much is enough?
when i got married i didn't know wat my hubby earned. it didn't really matterd to me then. if its reasonable income btw 75000-100,000 per anum k things can run smoothly i'm happy.
Re: How much is enough?
*a man is a real man who respects women and treats them equally ... ALWAYS! and makes good money!

If your importing a husband, then your the one who's earning more, setting up the house mortgage, down payment etc. So in that case it doesnt matter how much he earns.
In other cases, these days women are earning the same or more.
But if he's in his early to mid thirties, he should be established enough to afford atleast rent, a car and doh waqt ki roti.
Re: How much is enough?
amount needed to keep me and my household running
Re: How much is enough?
7 figures in £££££££s.
Re: How much is enough?
I would want my husband to earn equal or more than me and be of equal or more educated than me, i wouldnt want to be the main bread winner unless i had to be due to unforseen circumstances.
well in an ideal world, her daddy would be so rich, that neither one of us would have to work again.... Ameen... sum ameen...
Re: How much is enough?
Some people place to much weight on material belongings. Why is a 6 figure salary a deciding point in choosing a suitor?
To me, a loving and understanding relationship is much more important than any money any man could offer.
As long as we can afford to pay our bills and lead a comfortable life I wouldn't be bothered what my other half earned. Maybe that's because I'm content with what Allah has provided me with, or because I like the simple life.
At the end of the day people need to learn to live within their means. If your man aint earning what you want him to; aslong as you're not out on the streets or starving then you pretty much have more than the majority of the world.
Re: How much is enough?
any1 with 6 figure income will NOT read any of those posts…so whats the harm in typing it out 
Re: How much is enough?
If he doesnt mind....i am ok with him earning or not earning.....or lesser than me even ;)
At the end of the day, there should be food on the table and cHat over the head and decent clothes to wear, that would not need 6,7,8,9 digits....3,4,5 digits also will do :@:
Re: How much is enough?
Who the guy is as a person (his personality, traits, etc), level of responsibility, his morals, how he is towards his family and ME (respectfully and kindly), his education, and most importantly the trust, understanding, and overall relationship we have with each other is more important to me than how much money he makes.
If he has a good degree and is an ambitious person...than InshAllah everything will be fine...sooner rather than later.
And even if he does not make enough... it is alright because I will be making enough :) lol.
I expect a lot from my future hubby... but earning 6 figures is not one of them. It is not important and it will never be important. It will simply be an added bonus if it ever happens.
Re: How much is enough?
6 figures salary, decimal point included? :)
My in laws never asked for my salary but my parents provided the info at my back anyway just to make them at ease. It might not be most important thing in life but its one of the important aspact.
Re: How much is enough?
he should be earning atleast 6 figures, decimal point not included. he is after all, getting me
