LayZie G. Posted July 14, 2008 No wonder why the divorce rate is so bloody high amongst muslim couples I forgot to comment on the above quote. There are number of factors contributing to the high divorce rate, and its as follows: Absentee fathers Welfare depency balwad(i.e khat) maturity infidelity Lack of communication(nowadays, people naxariis ma garanayaan) and list goes on and on, but working mothers have nothing to do with the problems facing today's couples. However, I agree that some women prefer to stay home and raise their children. Lately, some of the very same women waxa ku qasban iney shaqeeyaan because ninkooda can't fulfill his duties as a husband/father and be the sole provider. That said, wallaalo, I ask of you to take the time to get all your facts before you start putting the blame solely on our hard working sisters everywhere.(i.e Black, hindu, white, indho yar, latinos) POWER TO MY SISTERS EVERYWHERE Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Queen Arawello Posted July 14, 2008 LoL Naden...thanks LoL Haneefah and paragon you 2 make me laugh, Haneefah, thanx for the wlc hunno Layzie G, how you mean 'we have come along way and have invested far too much to pay any mind to the likes of you'. ..Sounds like a personal attack Anyway sis I respect your views, it's your life, do as you please I just personally refuse to be thrown into the battlefield of work, where we must compete with men to take their place or share their positions, when there is no need to do so and the interests of society as a whole do not require it. I refuse to become some cheap commodity that is fought over by the greedy capitalists, or some gaudy doll whose company is enjoyed by immoral so-called men. I'd rather be at home catering to my husband, looking after my children and worshipping my lord. The prophet (saw) said 'If I were to order anyone to proterate to anyone else, I would have ordered women to prostrate to their husbands' Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Queen Arawello Posted July 14, 2008 I wasn't putting ALL the blame on women walaalo, I was merley stating the fact that, women going out to work is amongst the many reasons why marriges tend to fail. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Naden Posted July 14, 2008 Bella, where have you been working?!! I don't remember the last time I was a gaudy doll or a cheap commodity in a workplace. Sounds deliciously depraved. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Queen Arawello Posted July 14, 2008 Ma bad, i'm not saying 'ALL', wan ka xumahay, as i said ealier ..if sisters work in specialised areas such as befits their feminine nature and will not compromise with their deen then go ahead, naden, walaalo are you telling me that some sisters don't work in such enviroments?

Naden Posted July 14, 2008 Bella, I think one is more likely to become a 'gaudy doll' and a 'cheap commodity' if going after a job fitting their 'feminine nature'. I suggest training or education, instead. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Queen Arawello Posted July 14, 2008 LoooL, are you being serious walaalo? A women must remain a women, because with this quality, she can find happines or bring it to others.Sorry but I choose not to pay any attention to the nonsense calls of jaahiliyah.

Naden Posted July 14, 2008 ^ That which brings happiness to others, mostly located between the belly and the knees. And some other places of significantly less importance. Those jaahiliyah chicks ruined the party for everyone. :mad: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
