Is it permissible to make dua asking for a beautiful life partner?

In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Assalaamu `alaykum waRahmatullahi Wabarakatoh

1.       Yes, it is permissible provided your intention is good. However, it would be far better to make duaa in the words of Rasulullah (salallahu alayhi wasallam) as follows. “Allahumma Mattina Bi Asmaainaa Wa Absaarinaa Wa Quwwaatinaa Abadam Ma Abyaytana. Translation: “Oh Allah, Allow us to take full benefit from our hearing, our sight and maintain us (in this world).” This duaa is more inclusive and includes all aspects of your physical health.

2.       Yes, it is permissible. However, you rather ask for Aafiyat with it.

3.       Yes, it is permissible to make duaa-Hidaayat for a non-Muslim. Rasulullah (salallahu alayhi wasallam) made duaa of hidaayat for Umar (RA) before he embraced Islam.

And Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
