      @Dyana Sabet stay strong and build your character and skills as a future wife! You will find the right man god willing. Many men like me are searching actively for a woman who is not influenced by feminsim and wants to take traditional family roles. Unfortunetly not many women are left after getting brainwashed from society, even our muslim sisters. But everybody gets what they strive for.

    Lovely interview! Made my day ❤️. I'm pregnant with my second child. Some of my favorite moments this past year was with my son. He might not be addicted to TV... But he always wants to go outside and look at trains. I'm so happy to be married to my husband too. It wasn't easy to get here, but I'm so happy I am here.
    Thank you ladies ☺️

    I totally agree, I stress about education to my family but at the same time I’m a conservative and believe a husband deserves to be taken care of and well fed. A lot of my friends see this as shocking when I say I will make sure he’s fed whenever he wants😂 i believe if I play my role as a wife he will fulfill his role as a provider and everything will flow smoothly inshallah

    Toxic feminine as toxic masculinity hurts both genders. It's important though to acknowledge that not all women choose to be wives and mothers just as some doesn't want to be career women, so what's important is allowing them the choice.

    I am a single mom and struggle to raise my son because his father refuses to step up as a man. Many of my married friends say look at her; she has her own apartment and friendom. They envy my life, but I have no absolute freedom as I have to work full-time as a man and try to teach my son to be a good Muslim man on my own. They complain about staying home and being bored with their kids. They have no clue about the real world. I would do anything to be a traditional wife like them if I wanted to work only part-time to focus on my husband and kids. I want to live like a man anymore.

    This was a wonderful and eye-opening conversation, I have a big sister who is somewhat at a similar stage, but she is not a feminist, but she is working, is in university, and is starting a small business on the side to get out of the workforce and get married as early as possible, but she is having a hard time at work. For some weird reason, older middle age women are giving her a hard time. she is a fully covered practicing Muslim. The worst part is one of those middle-aged women is Muslim but is also giving her a hard time for trivial and nonsensical things, you think she would be understanding and help, Muslim women to Muslim women. And when she comes home she doesn't get much support from her parents, you know all Muslims ever say is study, study, study now days.
    what can she do in this situation?

    I loved listening to this. Because I learnt so much and I genuinely believe that I can make a few changes to become a more present mum and move closer towards achieving the home atmosphere that I know I can do. I was doing a lot of this before but I got distracted by stressful situations and external pressure. I didn't even realise how much it had affected me in the last one year until listening to this conversation. Tank you so much, I really appreciate this. May Allah bless and reward you both immensely. Aameen

    Thank you so much this candid and interesting talk! I really needed this reminder about what it means to be a woman and a mother. I had lost my spark and energy to be fully present and happy with my kids and my home so this really helped me boost that back and shift my mindset about it.

    Good talk. We just have to improve the social system so that divorced and widows do not end up abandoned and unsupported. A good ssfety net would definitely motivate more women to stay at home.

    Western countries need ISLAM to keep family protected, leave alcohol,leave toxic drug, leave gambling, give honour to women ,don't look sextually to women, protect from suicide ,how to be happy even you have low amount of earnings.

      It’s proper intriguing to get an insight into the female perspective on so many topics that aren’t expressed and communicated to us. As a man I have to commend you for giving me a window into how sisters feel and understand life,May Allah grant us to benefit from this to support the women in our lives in the best way.

    Thank you ladies. Fantastic conversation. Woman in their 50s-60s range and alone is a serious thing. No husband.No kids. No grandkids.No great career. They can be pretty much alone. It sucks. I know a lot of woman like that…No nothin. Just alone and unhappy.

      Not always by choice. It truly hurts but we have to have faith and utilise what we can. There are many children who need loving homes.
      Please pray for the women who don’t have such blessings. (Ameen)

    I’m guilty. N truth be told
    I was extremely frustrated by my husband n this powered my daughters to stand up n nt tolerate
    There must be some truth but now I see this can also result in them having a conflict with n in relationships
    Yes it’s crazy technology has taken over the minds of our children
    But children don’t want to be home ground n do simple tasks I’m failing in encouraging my daughter
    It’s super scary

    By the same token men also play a toxic role by having these expectations n become demanding n this balance results in some form or the other of abuse n misuse n taken for granted

    It's confusing how either side of the feminine spectrum can be reductive. At the end of your life, you will be standing before ALLAH swt and asked about your deeds. Not how many children you had in the peak of your fertility. Not how many college degrees you hanged on the wall of your office. KNOWLEDGE is key. Knowledge is mandatory by ALLAH'S laws anything else is extra. Fulfill yourself with knowledge, heal your inner wounds, educate yourself. Ponder on the verses of ALLAH and you will have a fulfilling life.
