  1. asalamu alaikyum,

    you can still study after marriage but the question is can he support you(actually thats not important since rizq comes from allah)? if hes charecteristic and his religion is good then your parents should accept him. tell your parents that you will continue to study after marriage, explain to them wxactly how you are feeling, it will take time eventually they should come around to the idea, hope things work.

    ma salama

  2. Ramla,

    I am in the same age as you and in the same situation. My family is keeping me from a good man, who comes from a good family, and want me to finish my education and wait at least two years before getting married. I would consult with someone outside your family, someone you trust. I consulted my quran teacher, who has taught me since I was a young girl about the matter.

  3. Aslm alkm. Ramla i felt it for, but onething our parent need to know is dat getin married wld terminate ones education. D prophet ''sallallahu alaihi wasalam'' said 'if a person who you trust his religion ask you for marriage? Then give him, other wise-disaster wld occur on earth' so there4 i wld advice u to try to your parent convinced dat ur marriage wld not affect ur educational career. Stay blessed
