By age 30, half of the men have already been married. Not everyone is available anymore.

SPEAKER_00

Rank up at marriage.

Sharif Faizullah

Do you guys want to hear a bitter truth that your well-intentioned friends and influencers might not tell you? By age 25, one out of four single men, and by age 30, one out of two single men have already said, I do.

SPEAKER_01

By age 30, half of the men have already been married. That's a large number. 50% is a lot. Like your pool has decreased by 50%. So you want to keep that in mind. For older marriage, not everyone is available anymore.

Sharif Faizullah

Yeah, go back five years. So by age 25, a quarter of men are gone as well. This is my personal anecdotal reflection. I've seen younger guys right out of college and maybe just finished their masters. They're below 25, but they value family life so much that they're willing to get married earlier. I have met so many single women in their late 20s and 30s, and they say, How come no one told me this before? And that's why I'm telling you this now. Does that mean you rush to get married? Be careful. Because that would be a mistake. Because there is such a thing called getting married too early. Almost one out of every three Muslim marriages ends up in divorce. Getting married too early is one of the top 10 reasons why Muslims get divorced. On the other hand, is there something called getting married too late? Yes, there is. But if you want a dink marriage, then it doesn't really matter. What do I mean by dink? It's double income, no kids. If that's the style of marriage you are looking for, it doesn't really matter when you get married. But but if you want to experience motherhood in the future, and then depending on how many children you want, then yes, getting married too late is something many women regret.

I know that culturally a lot of parents or families are more comfortable with their daughters getting married a little bit earlier than they are their sons. So suppose I'm ready and I'm young, does my husband need to be young too?
