Ameen.).

Dua for marriage proposal in Islam
Istikhara.
Dua to make or pray for proposing your wife to be in Islam is Istikhara. Istikharah itself is a word for requesting Allah to help one make a choice, that is, choosing the best of two things where one needs to choose one of them.
In Islam, marriage is termed Nikkah while engagement or proposal is Khitbah. It may be too late to make Istikhara dua when getting married, hence, the best time to do it is before engagement or proposal for Allah to guide you through.
What to do before proposing your future in Islam
Marriage is Islam is eternity, that is, one you have offered or accepted a dowry from someone, you have become a spouse of such person for ever. Nothing will disengage you except death. As a result of this, you have to make strong Istikhara dua.
Different sweet faces are everywhere nowadays, thus, it may be confusing to determine the true one, though, it is confusing to the Creator of face (Allah). Before getting engaged with someone in relationship or hand someone a proposal letter, ask God first to easy everything for you if such face is internally positive.
The word of note for you especially women is that you should be calm and don’t worry when someone who proposed to you is not returning because you can’t know what he has seen about you, this doesn’t mean that you are a witch or not beautiful. The man of your own is yet to come.
Maybe, he has been shown by Allah that you are not reserve for him, hence, if he force himself to marry you, he would encounter different hardships in his life on earth, bring him failures, diseases, etc. or experience a situation which will prevent him from doing a deeds of paradise if Allah likes him to be among a child of paradise.
You are reserved to someone who deserved.
Don’t commit adultery or change your practice or standing towards Islam in the name of forcing man to propose you be prayerful while requesting your Lord to merge you with someone who will care for you and your children hand your hand into aljanat (paradise/heaven).
