Where does educational status stand in your search of the right partner for yourself?
Does he/she have to have the same or higher paper qualification as you?
For me, it has become an unconscious trait in looking for a guy. I would favour guys with a higher qualification. Degree is good, diploma is fine too, but I would not like someone lower.
Cause probably I think very far ahead. In our economy and society, it is not easy if you only have the basic of basic qualification. We all need higher than that.

We share the same sentiment. =)
But I guess when it boils down to everything... material posessions are really trivial in life la. -shrug-
In todays world, a Pri 6 educated person can become Millionaires or Billionaires when they work hard enough.
They are bosses to Degree Holders or higher qualified people than them. If you ask me they are so much smarter than their employees.
However there are also so few of them and they are a class of their own. So you would lucky if you end marrying them.
I don't think education should be a concern. What matters is whether such partners can support and understand each other Zahir & Batin.
To me, I rather have a partner who can carry a conversation and have the ability to generate new ideas and are willing to take the Life Long Learning Process. Learning doesn't stop at Diplomas and Degrees, Masters or even PHD.
Consider this thought too. He/She might have the potential to take the diploma/degree perhaps during their later years. Due to playfulness, ignorance and not realizing how important is during their youth they stop where they are.
So do you still consider them as your partners?
example. One my friend was just and ITE cert holder when he got married to his wife who was a diploma holder. After they got married they pursued their education. Now he has a diploma and the wife has a degree. Have one kid and happily married.
Jodoh tu di tangan Tuhan.. If you are just basing it on education you might be wrong too. So ask from the All Mighty and he will show you your partners.

Agreed, everything is a blessing from Allah.
I don't believe in making that a criteria in my future spouse. More importantly is that he can meet my basic needs. There is a big difference between needs and wants.
Unfortunately, we humans are greedy and ungrateful by nature. Give them two bags of gold and they will definitely want another. =)
Instead of comparing ourselves to the rich ones around us, why is it that we always fail to compare ourselves with the poor ones around us?
Nothing that comes from Allah is bad. It is always good. So, whatever things we have received from Him, we thank Him for it and always seek His help for anything, because everything is a test for us, even if it means, being rich. A test of how we manage that wealth, do we become good from it, or bad? =)
Well said Fadzuli & Haz.
My huby is also not a highly educated guy but we managed to achieve things that we never imagine that we would have.
The most important thing is that the guy must know his goal in lfe and he MUST be hardworking.
Learning is life long.We can never stop learning.So the best thing in life is to always seek for knowlwdge.Only then can you be better than others.
