I've locked the [url=http://www.jannah.org/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.pl/YaBB.pl?board=brothers&action=display&num=2495]previous thread[/url] because it's read-only (some bug in the program).  Although it was letting you post in the thread, your post would never appear on the board.  So if you want to add anything to the discussion in that thread, you can post it here insha Allah :)

Assalam-o-Aliakom,

Well I don't see any problem in sister proposing brother as long as rules of sharia are obsereved to approach the brother. Where ever taking the action negatively or man's ego is concerned I think it's irrelevant. As long as it's allowed in Sharia and we can find examples in sunnah of Holy Prophet (SAAW) where more than one women approached Holy Prophet (SAAW) and proposed him. First one was Hazrat Khadija (RAAU) what Holy Prophet (SAAW) accepted, rest all proposals were turned down. (Please correct me if I am wrong ?)

So I think it's same either brother approach sister or sister approach brother if the second party likes the first one he/she can accept the proposal otherwise reject it. Rest Allah knows the best.

Where ever bet between Jannah and Se7en is concerned I think no one is going to win that bet since these are two sides of the same picture it depends from which angel you see the picture. I think it's a feminist statement that no man can take it in todays world. It depends on the brother who is being proposed as well as the sister either brother like her or not ?

assalam alikum
i feel its okie for a sister to approach a brother directly with
a proposal of marrige, although  the  brother  might be taken a little aback in pleasnt surprise i dont see where an ego comes
in seriously contemplating it.

Is carrying on the negotiations (why what how and  when) just between them is  Islamic? for it would involve meeting ,often in secret.......
or is better for them  now to go through the wali now since both of them intend to marry?
i would opt for the  second option
