Hey Sarah, I wonder if you re still waiting for the approval from the Saudi government. Im facing the same situation. For me he’s the best person I ever met. We re very happily married too. Of course we do argue at times as any other but we do love each other very much.Im really hoping we get the permission so I dont need to worry anymore about him with all the flights he takes and driving for so long after a flight and also having the opportunity of being next to his mum and sisters and brothers.. I really hope all went well for you and please give meany advice that you have. Thank you so much!!!!

Hi Sabrina, You could marry somewhere else, but even an Islamic marriage would not be legal in Saudi unless you had Saudi government approval for the marriage. It is easier to get it prior to marriage, rather than after, but difficult to obtain at any time. More information and more personal stories are on my blog under the categories Marriage Permission/Visa/Iqama and Personal Stories. If you want to do a post there on your own particular situation to get more responses please contact me at the blog address chezchiara2 AT yahoo DOT com. You could look at the other stories for examples or what your post might look like and also consult the page Personal Stories about privacy, confidentiality, and final say on all content of the posting. All the best!

Hello.
I have a question since u guys seem to know so much about Saudi regulations.
My bf is Saudi born in Kuwait, i am 22 he is 26, however in Saudi he was told he cannot marry me unless he will be 34 years old.
Do you know if it is possible for us to marry somewhere else?
I am a muslim too, i was born in Muslim country of Kyrgyzstan.

It is sad, that all governments get involved with this personal aspect of peoples lives. I resent the U.S. for having ANY say in who one decides to marry. 200 years ago, you traveled as you may find means, you feel in love with whom God ordained, and you started your life together with NO government interference. I know this wasn’t necessarily so in the old country, but I do not know the history of government interference in marriage in other countries?

Of course we were still young then! lol. More public outcries please. :-)

God bless ya man ! I’ve really liked most of the replays here…it’s like u have written or said what’s in my mind!
I really don’t know what to say but,,its really sad to feel that u truly don’t wanna belong to your country & I wonder if the government would give a s*** about it !!
cuz I’ve never heard from anyone in the world who deeply hates his/her own nation! I’d rather be anything but Saudi!
its like they enjoy watching us struggling psychologically just for the sake of settling things down which actually these things dont worth any teeny tiny bit of trouble!!
only God knows what they deserve for stealing the inner peace from our souls..

Man…u got that right! & to tell u the truth, I am a Saudi woman who is married to my beloved Jordanian & I am so proud of this marriage. However, when I hear anything concerning these regulations & how unjust thy are, I feel furious! cuz this filthy government is not protecting Saudi women! NO! they r just bossing around every woman in this stupid country as if we are their slaves or something!” they actually believe that they have all the right to do so”!!( can u imagine this lousiness)) !!! that’s why I’ve always hated this country & never felt that I belong here! these rules reflect the huge mass of ignorance within this failing & good-for-nothing country which I hate to be part of it!! I swear its a shame….

I think they should permit the saudi women to marry foreigner since there is huge quantity of umarried women in Saudia. Also there are Widows and divorcee.

I am also looking for Saudi orphan girl or Widow to marry .

I am responsible man looking for saudi women age must be 25 to 34
