No Shaming, No Blaming
I absolutely love that this book validates Muslim women’s often very heartbreaking realities with love and relationships,
acknowledges men’s faults and where they go wrong, and gives a Muslimah a clear path to love that allows her to be vulnerable, honest, and accepting of herself.
There is no shaming, no willful disregard of the very real problems Muslim women go through (that the larger community tries to cover up), and no blaming.

As If He Was Reading My Thoughts
I love how practical this book is. How there are clear, defined steps for what to do and what actions to take. I like that it’s a conversational book. I could almost hear the author telling me what to do.
At times, it was as if he was reading my thoughts because the next line would be a response to what I was just thinking.
Felt Like a Brother was Talking to Me
I was initially surprised by how conversational the book is, but that actually made it an enjoyable read.
It was as if a friend or close relative was giving me advice, someone who knows me well. It truly felt like a brother was talking to me.
It's clear that you know what you're talking about, and that you have experience. I like that you promote rational thought before any swaying of the heart.
Important and Mature Discussions
At the beginning of the book, the reader in me was a little skeptical. But as I kept reading, I found that the things being discussed are actually important, and pretty mature. I also really liked that it has been properly referenced, because a book on such a topic does need that.
You Explained Love Perfectly
Your introduction really grabbed my attention. After reading why you wrote this book, I said, 'Oh, this author has put his heart into this.'
I loved how you kept the chapters short. And you explained what love is perfectly.
Must Read for A Woman Looking for Love
Honestly, the author's writing style has some kick to it. Although a few things might come as a shock to some readers, the book is written in an attractive manner.
I would mark this book as a must read for a woman looking for love, or thinking about marriage, even if she's 18 or 19.
I Haven't Cried Like This in A Long Time
This is amazing and brutal at the same time. If my heart was a wall made of stone bricks, I would say that some of the big rocks just fell down and I feel a bit lighter after reading the book. Thank you for making me do this.
Very Clever and Stuck With Me
The idea of divorce proofing your marriage before you even start looking for someone is very clever and stuck with me after reading the book. I think it's a great way of being practical about the whole process.
Pure Gold
The more I read, the more I love this book. Pure gold.
Very necessary for our growing generation.
I Like The Author's Honest Admission of Vulnerability
I liked the author’s honest admission of vulnerability and the anecdotes about his trial-and-error process while working to divorce-proof his own marriage.
I Will Be Handing This to My Daughters
So much work went into this book in terms of research, passion, and first-hand experience. I'll be handing it to my daughters in shā Allāh to read when they're old enough.
Allah Showed Me This Book At The Right Time
Why do I get the feeling that Allah dropped this book in my lap at the right time? I'm going to be 20 soon.
