Can someone share an Islamic perspective on this situation for my friend?
She started a new job about five months ago, where she met a colleague who held a higher position than her. Over time, he began showing interest in her by helping her more than he did with others. She also started to develop feelings for him.
At one point, she considered leaving the job due to unrelated reasons. However, he approached her and encouraged her to stay, even offering to make changes that would make things easier for her. She decided to remain, and he continued to treat her with kindness and support.
As time went on, her feelings grew stronger, and she began thinking about the possibility of marriage. About three months into the job, she started making dua for him and continued doing so consistently.
A few weeks later, several managers—including him—left the workplace for better opportunities. She felt upset by his departure but has continued making dua and remains hopeful that, if it is Allah’s will, they may be reunited one day.
Has anyone experienced been in a similar situation and have been able to get what they made dua for?
