:salam2:,

1. because we are not selfish that we cant spend our money on our wives.

2. because we are not niggard that we say to her to manage her own spendings.

3. because we love our wives and dont want that any non-mahram at her work-place look at her, talk to her with desire.

4. because we want to remain faithfuland dont want that women in our work-place divert us frm our wives.

5. because we are wise and know that if women also join work-force, then who'll take care of home and childern - the future ummah.

6. because we are long-sighted that know that mixing of men-women will result in cases of affairs, heartbreaks, haram physical relations, jealousy, hatred, lust, etc.

because we, as women are liberated and are not expected to hold a 45 hour per week job and then manage the house, the kids, and the husband.

because whatever money we earn is ours and we are not obliged to spend a penny on the family

because we know the importance of family life and we are the teachers of the future generation and are the shapers of society

because we know how Allah has favoured us in somethings and man on others and we are not fighting to be mans co-equal

because Allah says in the Quran that the men are the care-takers of women

alhamdulilah for our rights in Islam, we are truely lucky

thank you for sharing

Salaam,
Well housewife is a job itself and the most honorable one in my view.
It is a hell of a job ....just look at your moms and all they got a do!cleaning,cooking,taking care of the children...etc.I think that most men would apply for political asylum if they had to do all of this,we just don t have that patience,my second guess is that Allah swt made it this way and gave both sides of the conflict complementary strategic pressures to achieve peace in the house...haha

wassalaam

Assalaam walaikum,

Now brothers let me make you think. What about all the widows and women of divorce who are forced to work to put food on the table for their children. If the woman did not work the children would not eat. So now you have a woman who works and comes home to be the housewife and mother. She works until she is so tired, all the while her children are on her mind. She comes home and helps with homework. She washes the clothes, makes dinner, cleans the home and makes it a Muslim household. She balances bills. If I pay all the electrical bill do I have enough money to pay the water bill. The mortgage/rent bill, the car payment, the insurance payments, oh let me not forget the children grow each day..set aside money for clothes and emergencies. So brothers tell me what do you say to these sisters? We, too, are your mothers and sisters. Do you just wish the best for your wives and leave millions of Muslim sisters by the wayside?

However, if all women stayed at home as housewives, then men would be teaching your daughters...then men would be delivering your babies and doing gyno checks on your wives and daughters....then men would be measuring your wives and daughters for clothing....then they would HAVE to speak to men in grocery stores, restaurants, taxis, schools, universities, police stations, etc.

See where I am going here?

As a side note, Kuwait is introducing "Eve Taxis" soon, which will be pink taxis with female drivers for ladies only. If there are no lady taxi drivers, your wives & daughters would have to ride with male taxi drivers. http://www.thenational.ae/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20100120/FOREIGN/701199920/1040

thats absolutely true, thats why it is based on individual circumstances, and its not to say women should not work, rather they have the CHOICE whether to work or not.

that female taxi driver scenario sounds great, they should roll that out in Saudi too!

Asalam aleakum,

Thank you for pointing this out sister!!! I had to roll my eyes a bit because it is simply impossible to have every woman being solely a housewife. I am completing my education to be a physician and there is a severe shortage of female doctors for women. Men want their wives to be treated by women only but don't want their wives to go out and get their education and jobs and support the female side of the ummah.

Then we have sisters like Mirajmom who must work or her children starve. Yet brothers say, "If the prospective wife works then I don't want her." She is truggling to raise two boys on her own and I have yet to read about a Muslim brother approaching her for marriage. It's shameful honestly.

:salam2:,

my post was not intented for those needy sisters who have to work due to financial problems. may Allah make things easy for them. Ameen.

my post was basically for those muslim sisters who works for no serious need. they have everything. their desire of self-respect and personal money overrules family and children. plus *many* (not all) wear full make-up and tight clothes, with flirting eyes they arrive at office. this is wht creates fitnah.

agreed.

maybe thats why ulama says that polygamy is necessary in certain times.

oh no :D

poor female driver will be chased till the end of the road by many saudi youngsters. :tongue:

I can't help but think theres something profoundly wrong with Middle Eastern society ..where the women (on the whole) are covered up more than any other place in the entire world, yet the men STILL hassle them when given the opportunity? Truly pathetic.

I just dont understand why women can not drive in Saudi, where on earth did they come up with that from? would those who initiated that rule prefer a strange male chauffer to drive the females around rather that the females themselves driving or having a female chauffer another female?!

its so pathetic
