اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ حُبَّكَ وَحُبَّ مَنْ يُحِبُّكَ وَحُبَّ كُلِّ عَمَلٍ يُقَرِّبُنِي إِلَى حُبِّكَ
Allahumma inni as'aluka hubbaka wa hubba man yuhibbuka wa hubba kulli 'amalin yuqarribuni ila hubbik
O Allah, I ask You for Your love, the love of those who love You, and the love of every deed that brings me closer to Your love.
The framework for choosing a spouse: love Allah first, then love people who love Allah, then love actions that bring you to Allah's love. A marriage rooted in mutual love of Allah is built on the strongest foundation possible. When both spouses love Allah more than each other, their love for each other is elevated, purified, and protected — because it flows through the most reliable Source.

O Allah, I seek Your guidance through Your knowledge, and I seek ability through Your power, and I ask of Your great bounty. You are capable and I am not. You know and I do not. And You are the Knower of the unseen. O Allah, if You know this matter is good for me in my religion, my livelihood, and the outcome of my affairs — decree it for me, make it easy for me, and bless me in it. And if You know this matter is bad for me in my religion, my livelihood, and the outcome of my affairs — turn it away from me and turn me away from it, and decree for me what is good wherever it may be, then make me content with it.
