From an Islamic perspective, the Prophet ﷺ advised that people usually marry for four reasons:
Wealth
Status/lineage
Beauty
Religion (faith and character)
And he ﷺ encouraged prioritizing religion (deen and akhlaq) because that brings barakah (blessing) in marriage.
When someone asks “What qualities are you looking for in a spouse?” you might respond with things like:
Strong faith & good character (regular in salah, honest, kind).
Respectful and family-oriented.
Good communication and understanding.
Compatible lifestyle goals (career, children, modesty, etc.).
Emotional maturity & patience.
Sense of responsibility (financial and household duties).
Mutual respect and compassion in marriage.
deen (faith) and akhlaq (character/conduct) as the most important.
Deen (religion/faith): A spouse who fears Allah and follows the Sunnah will help you remain steadfast, raise righteous children, and keep the household upon obedience to Allah.
Akhlaq (good character): This includes kindness, patience, honesty, respect, and compassion. Good manners make daily married life peaceful and loving.
