Re: Is it right?
Judging by what you wrote if your fathers the type of person to have an issue with the fact they are from India it is going to be really tough on you to try compromising with him. And also judging by the fact that he’s really religious right wing pakistani, those are the type of fathers that hate compromising. Close minded as hell I tell ya.
But any ways, if you do find a guy back home in paki land, what makes him think that he wont just marry you for the green card citizenship? That scenario has happened several times. Plus guys that come from over there will have to re-study to try to find a job over here unless its one of the few schools recognized by canada/u.s education system. And the older you get the harder it is to find someone.
But, to my story I told you earlier about the guy from the mosque who lied. Everyone told us he was great and a good person, but very few people knew that he was married in another state and other information. I would do my due diligence and try to get a professional background check on him as well.
Ishtikara is one thing but religious people misuse it, The word Istikhara directly means, to ask Allah to guide one to the right sort of action concerning a job or deed
Its so that going forward, Allah helps you, it won’t help you predict anything with dreams and such. It’s about gut feeling if anything.
Also, I feel like after having an argument, when my parents say “do Ishtikara” they mean, use ishtikara to tell us, so we can reinforce the fact of what we are saying is correct.
