She didn’t feel any interest in a person who wants to marry her; should she pursue the matter?

 

I would really appreciate a reply when time permits inshallah. I sat with a brother that is interested in marrying me. I felt disappointed and bad. Also, I had no feelings or enthusiasm to accept the brother. 
Mashallah he has excellent Deen and character. Everyone that knows him speaks highly of him. I guess my question is, how do you know you want to marry that person? Please answer this question inshallah. It is a tough one to find an answer to.
Are you just sure? Is there a certain feeling? What if you just don't feel anything for the person at all? (I am not speaking of desire.) Should you marry that person even if you don't feel enthusiastic about marrying them? Also, I only sat with the brother once. Could my lack of enthusiasm be do to this fact?

Praise be to Allaah. 

The Prophet (peace
and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “If there comes to you one
with whose religious commitment and character you are pleased, then
marry (your female relative) to him.” And he said, “Seek the one who
is religious.” What is addressed to men includes women too. 

When you find a young man whose religious commitment,
character and attitude you are pleased with, then you have to accept
him as a husband. What will help a girl to do that is to ask about this
man from those who know him well, because during short visits, and especially
when one is seeking to get married, people are usually on their best
behaviour and one sees little of a person’s true nature and character. 

Shaykh Muhammad al-Duwaysh. 

A girl may also feel somewhat afraid when thinking of
marriage to a person because it is such a life-changing matter. But
this fear should not stop you from agreeing if he is religious and of
good character. 

We would also draw your attention to the issue of your
sitting with this person, which you mentioned at the beginning of your
question. If the betrothed couple  sit
together in the presence of someone who will ensure that there is no
khulwah [being alone together], and the woman wears hijaab as she wears
for prayer (i.e., covering everything except the hands and face), for a length of time which is sufficient for both parties to make a decision, this is correct and is what is prescribed in Islam; if it is anything other than that, then beware…
