I was zocheh to have my son the chassan make a siyum on Shas at his wedding. The simchah was very great – the simchah of the marriage combined with the simchas haTorah. What amazed me was the following:
The kallah related that five years earlier her older sister had gotten married, and the chassan, a talmid chacham, made a siyum on Shas at the wedding. That sister then told the now young kallah, “You should know that I davened for this. If you also want your chassan to make a siyum on Shas at his wedding, daven for it.”
From that day on, for five years, the kallah davened that her chassan should also make a siyum on Shas at his wedding, and her tefillah was answered!
I relate this story in order to strengthen bnos Yisrael to daven for their zivug. They should know that their tefillos for their future chassan, that he succeed in his learning and in his avodas Hashem, are accepted in Shamayim.
