Report: Curious#1

Assalamualaikum and hi

Alhamdulillah, finally the results of the survey are out. Sorry for the delay as it takes more time than expected. Again, thanks so much to those who had participated in this survey. It is so much fun, and quite surprising too. Now I can say.................

"Haa~ finally finished.. it's quite scary when thinking of this issue for too long. It makes me more conscious on everything occured around me that's related to BM. Those tv shows, facebook posts, Seminar baitul muslim 3.0.. not to mention even watching Battlefield made me reflected on getting married"

Also, congrats to those lucky respondents who already received their prize just now. For those who did not get the prize, well… try again next time maybe, if I have extra allowance money *koff koff*.

Just saying, the lucky people were randomly by using random number generator like this one so it can be said that the number picked were totally random.

You can download the ‘informal report’ here.

From here onwards, what I’m going to write is just my own personal view (read: men point of view) from the survey, specifically on Question 7 & 8, which related to the ‘First Initiator’ issue. This may cause discomfort to some people but I’m open to other opinions and critics.

Typically, men should be the first initiator. I personally agree with that.

However, sometimes there are some limitations to our own interpretation and assumption. We are not psychic or having some kind of supernatural to read every situation or know what others think.

So, if you (woman) had done your istikharah and seriously sure that he is the one for you, then it’s not a crime to start first. And by those words,  I also means using the assistance of middle party.

Ah, I forgot to mention, this is only if you are seriously thinking to go for marriage, and not just for fun, dating, something like that.

Also, it’s quite interesting to know what you think about this post on Facebook I found some time earlier *can’t find the link, seems like the admins delete it maybe?*

I know the confessor means well as it is around valentine’s season that time, but still, it left a bad taste in my mouth. So I ended up printscreen it here for the reference. And, you may want to check this video by MTAS too.

That’s all my rant for now. A kind reminder to the readers that this survey is informal and should not be used as references for serious social study due to limitations of this study. Some of the words are my personal opinions and did not strictly follow any format for formal reports.

Thank you for reading, and I’m waiting for comments or critics.

p/s: already have idea for the next social study. Wait for it~
