“How Do I Find a Masculine Muslim Husband When Men Aren’t Leaders Anymore?” | Agony Uncle Series

Dear Agony Uncle,

I’m a 26-year-old Muslim woman from London, and I’m struggling to find a husband who embodies the qualities I’m looking for. It seems like many Muslim men today lack the masculine leadership that Islam teaches about. They’re either too passive, overly emotional, or seem to expect women to lead in relationships. I want a man who can be the head of our household, make decisions confidently, and provide for our family – isn’t this what Allah intended? My friends think I’m being unrealistic, but I don’t want to settle. How do I find a genuinely masculine Muslim man in today’s world?

– Searching in South London

As Muzz is the biggest Muslim Marriage App in the world, we hear a lot of your complaints about how hard some people are finding it, to find a spouse, more specifically how difficult some women are finding it to meet a man who is willing to take on the husband role.

Want some advice? Our CEO Shaz tackles some of your dilemmas in this video ⬇️

Understanding Islamic Masculinity in the Modern World

Islamic masculinity and modern, perhaps more specifically western, masculinity are quite different. For women who are looking to find a partner who embodies what they view as traditional Islamic masculine qualities – leadership, provision, protection, and guidance, it might be tough.

However, it’s worth exploring what true Islamic masculinity means beyond surface-level characteristics, and how modern challenges have shaped the men in our community.

What Does the Quran and Sunnah Say About Masculine Leadership?

Before getting into this, let’s have a look at what Islam says about men and masculinity. Islamic teachings emphasise that men have a role as “qawwam” (maintainers and protectors) of their families. This concept includes:

Financial responsibility: Providing for the family’s needs Spiritual leadership: Guiding the family in religious matters Protection: Safeguarding the family’s physical and emotional wellbeing Decision-making: Taking responsibility for major family decisions whilst consulting with one’s wife

However, the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) also demonstrated remarkable gentleness, emotional intelligence, and partnership with his wives. He helped with household tasks, consulted Sayyida Khadijah and Sayyida Aisha on important matters, and showed deep empathy and compassion.

The Reality of Modern Muslim Men

The reality of being a masculine man, in the Islamic sense, in the modern world is nuanced. There are a lot of men who want to live up to the standards of masculinity that many muslim women want however feel as though they can’t do so in the western world, and there are also a lot of men who want to submit to western, modern gender roles. As muslims we should aim to see the best in people, there might be different factors affecting muslim men’s ability to be protectors and providers that you haven’t thought about:

1) Economic Pressures

As most of us know all too well, the current cost of living, inflation and job market is brutal. The salary that could support a household in our parents generation can feel like a struggle to get by on for even one person these days. Many young Muslim men struggle with career stability, housing costs, and student debt. The traditional model of men being the sole providers while the women stay at home, has become economically challenging for many families. It can take a lot longer now for a man to get far enough in his career to be able to provide for a wife and family, than it used to a few years ago.

As a muslim woman, you might need to be more patient than previous generations while your husband gets to a place where he can provide for you. Having said this, there is a huge difference between waiting for a man who is building himself up and a man who is lazy or stagnant. If he is actively working towards providing for you, then you should give him some grace.

2) Cultural Confusion

Second and third-generation British Muslims often navigate between traditional expectations and modern British society. Whilst traditional muslim women exist in western society, there is also a large majority of the population who don’t conform to traditional standards and might even be offended if a muslim man treats them in a ‘traditional’ way. Some men might be afraid to make women feel disrespected by treating them in a way that isn’t compatible with modern values. To understand whether a man is not treating you in accordance to the traditional or cultural values you would like because of personal beliefs, it would be worth having a clear conversation about your expectations.

Reframing Your Search Strategy

Instead of focusing on what’s lacking in Muslim men generally, consider refining your approach:

1. Look Beyond Surface Presentations

True strength often manifests quietly. The man who confidently makes decisions might also be emotionally intelligent enough to express vulnerability when appropriate. Don’t mistake gentleness for weakness.

2. Seek Character Over Stereotypes

Focus on finding someone with:

Integrity and honesty in all dealings Commitment to Islamic principles in daily life Ambition and work ethic even if still building his career Respect for you as an individual and future wife Emotional maturity to handle life’s challenges 3. Consider Potential Over Current Position

A 26-year-old man might still be developing his leadership skills and financial stability. Look for someone with the right foundation and growth mindset rather than expecting him to have achieved everything already. The world has changed a lot and getting to a comfortable stage in life can take far longer than ever before, not being patient with someone who has all the right qualities and ambitions could cost you an amazing marriage.

Setting Realistic Expectations

Consider that the “masculine leadership” you seek might look different in 2025 than it did in previous generations:

A modern Muslim leader might consult with his wife on major decisions whilst still taking responsibility for outcomes Financial provision might be shared, with the husband ensuring the family’s needs are met through various means Emotional expression and empathy are strengths, not weaknesses, in Islamic masculinity Questions for Self-Reflection

Ask yourself:

Am I conflating cultural stereotypes with Islamic teachings about masculinity? Would I recognise strong character if it came in a gentler package? Are my expectations reasonable for men in my age group and circumstances? What qualities would make me a suitable wife for the type of man I’m seeking?

Remember that a truly masculine Muslim man will also be looking for a wife who complements his strengths and supports his role as family leader. Focus on developing the qualities that would make you an ideal partner for such a man, and trust that Allah will bring the right person into your life at the right time.

The man you’re seeking exists, but he might surprise you with how he expresses his strength and leadership in the modern world.

Muslim Agony Uncle: Married for a green card?

“I’ve Discovered My Husband Only Married Me for a UK Visa – What Do I Do?” | Muslim Agony Uncle Series

In our agony uncle series, we tackle the difficult questions facing Muslims today. This week, we address a heartbreaking situation that unfortunately affects more people than many realise.

Want some advice? Our CEO Shaz tackles some of your dilemmas in this video ⬇️

Dear Agony Uncle,

– Heartbroken in Birmingham

When Sacred Bonds Are Broken by Deception Understanding Marriage Fraud in the Muslim Community What should you do in this situation? 1. Gather Evidence Carefully

If you’ve found proof of your husband’s true intentions, document it safely. Screenshots of messages, emails, or recorded conversations could be crucial if you decide to take legal action. Store these securely and consider making copies.

2. Seek Islamic Guidance

Consult with a trusted Imam or Islamic scholar about your situation. They can provide spiritual guidance on how Islamic law views marriages entered into under false pretences and what options are available to you from a religious perspective.

3. Consider Legal Advice

Marriage fraud is a criminal offence in the UK and many other countries. Speaking with a solicitor who specialises in immigration and family law can help you understand your rights and options. Many offer initial consultations at no cost.

4. Protect Your Financial Interests

If you have joint accounts, property, or other shared assets, consider how to protect yourself financially. Your husband may attempt to secure as much as possible before any divorce proceedings, especially if his intentions for the marriage were about personal gain.

The Emotional Impact: You’re Not Alone

Experiencing a betrayal like this can make you feel isolated and many people can often feel embarrassed, even though it is nothing to feel embarrassed about. It is important to remember that you are not alone and there are so many people who sadly, have dealt with similar situations. Try and remember that even though this marriage may not have worked out, Allah (SWT), has someone better in store for you and this is not the be all end all.

If you are really struggling, consider reaching out to:

Muslim counselling services that understand both the cultural and religious aspects of your situation Support groups for people who’ve experienced marriage fraud Trusted friends or family members who can provide emotional support Dealing with Family and Community Pressure

The fear of family disappointment and community gossip often keeps women silent about marriage fraud. However, remember that not everyone is entitled to your personal life. Although it can be helpful to open up to close people in your life about what you are going through, you are under no obligation to share this personal information with other people and you have every right to keep what happened to yourself until you are ready to share, if you ever want to.

Spiritual Healing

Many women find comfort in reconnecting with their faith during this difficult time. Regular prayer, reading Quran, and seeking Allah’s guidance can provide strength and clarity as you navigate this challenging period. Allah (SWT) does not ever give you a challenge that you cannot handle, although it may seem like meaningless pain now, there is something greater planned for you.

A Message of Hope

Whilst your current situation feels overwhelming, please remember that countless women have survived similar betrayals and gone on to find genuine happiness and love. Your worth is not diminished by someone else’s deception and being a divorcee does not make you less of a woman.

Take this one day at a time, seek the support you need, and trust that Allah has a plan for you that doesn’t involve being exploited or deceived.

Is Muzz Male-Dominated? From A Female’s Perspective

A few years ago, Shahzad (the CEO of Muzz) said in an article, “membership is two-thirds male and one-third female”. After using Muzz as a woman and meeting my partner on the app, we can both say that this statistic is still the same. 

For me, I had endless profiles to scroll through and tap the little heart icon on. For him? He said he was “lucky” if he got “one or two” that he actually “liked”.

So…why the imbalance?

After speaking with many women, it’s clear that we want to feel like royalty and be given the good old princess treatment. We dream of that fairy tale ending. Or we simply want a ‘meet-cute’. And for some, saying we met someone online just doesn’t sound very… romantic. We want a story that will melt our mum’s heart or impress our nosey aunties.

“He requested me”, “he slid into my DM’s” and “we matched on an app” doesn’t always feel like that.

A lot of people who’ve met their partners on Muzz end up with creative cover stories, from “we met at Queen Mary’s. I bumped into him at the library” to “we met at some coffee shop in East London. I spilled coffee on him and he offered to get me another”, and can even go as far as “we met outside Regent’s Park Mosque, and he prayed for me”.

But me? I met my partner on Muzz. And honestly? Our story is romantic.

I downloaded the app and became a member because I was doing research for an investigative feature: I was sceptical about Muslim dating/marriage apps. Turns out, I didn’t need to be, because I found my match.

And he said something I’ll never forget: “I wanted to take part in your investigative feature because I wanted to get to know you. I wanted to support you–personally, academically and professionally. I’d always want to support you in those ways as your partner… and I do want to be your other half.”

Romantic, right?

Even if it doesn’t feel romantic straight away, that doesn’t mean it won’t be more romantic later. He might take you on a thoughtful date. He might surprise you with your favourite flowers. He might even cook your favourite foods. It can turn into something romantic, and more importantly, something real.

Some even called the app “shallow”.  My partner told me one of his friends “would just like profiles based purely on how a woman looked”. He wouldn’t even bother reading their taglines, bios or about me.

But honestly? I wouldn’t call the app shallow, I’d say some people can be. It’s made for muslims to meet and I guess many fall victim to playing the blame game. Apps can’t stop shallow people joining and bridle how they behave. 

Like in real life, those are the ones you need to filter through. It’s all part of the process and helps you spot who’s serious and who’s not. Muzz also gives you tools to make that easier, too. You can filter for completed bios, shared interests, personality traits, and of course report or block anyone who’s misbehaving. 

I experienced this myself a lot before I had set the filters. I took my time and thought about what I wanted to write in my tagline. I wanted to show my personality, so I went for something short and sweet: 

“A literature graduate turned journalism student who loves animals more than people. I’m also a big fat foodie who would like to travel more.”

But at the bottom of my bio, I wrote: 

“I’m an MA Journalism student, and I’m on Muzz because I am writing an investigative feature. I’m also genuinely looking for a partner. If you’re interested in participating and ok with your name and picture being published, message me!”

How many men actually read that?

We’d match, I’d ask something like, “So you’re ok with participating?” or “So you’ve read my bio?” and they’d be like “Huh, participate in what?” or they’d read my bio and unmatch.

That’s when I realised most of them just liked me for what I looked like, not for who I was. 

And honestly? If that’s your approach, you’ll never find a match. You get what you put in.

It was the ones who messaged me things like, “So, have you got your pen and paper ready?” who had actually read my tagline, my bio, and about me. Those were the ones who I matched with.  

Liking a profile and matching. Image: Saarah Miah.

So, while there might be more men on Muzz, I wouldn’t say it’s dominated by males. If anything, it just means we women have the upper hand. We’re spoilt for choice, and that’s not a bad thing.

We decide who to match with, who to chat to, and what kind of story we want to write for ourselves. 

And with more women joining the app every day, that so-called imbalance? It’s starting to even out. So take your pick!
