I pray that Insha Allah, I will get a husband wo will treat me according to the Shariah. Sometimes I get scared that I might get maried to one who will not treat me Islamically..

I hope I will also treat him according to the sunnah...

@SuperMaryam16 Pray for me as well :)

asalaamalaikum, with all due respect to this sheikh. he's given better lectures. dont agree that there are very minimal jobs that are cool in Islam for women to do (engineering a no?!). ideally a woman should never compromise her position as a mother or responsibilities as a wife. however shes STILL working for Allah when she is able to earn money for her family &inshaAllah its counted as a charity. not all women are mothers or wives or having righteous mahram by their sides. speech was narrow.

@madeenable walakum o asalam. Dear Sisters, it is you who plays the integral role of raising our children (in most households) & its your efforts that steer our children to their upbringing. Indeed, it was the sacrifice of the mothers of the Imam Maliks and Sufyaan ath-Thawris that raised scholars. Raise your children in a righteous household & bring them up amongst the Quran! Teach them Quran, manners, and concern for the ahkirah, in'sha'Allah!

Does anyone know where he gave this lecture? 

[bachamazar]

@sunshinesamar Don't know the place but the full lecture is 'Importance of Following the Sahaba'

[sairacoolification]

sorry, but Khadija (RA) was a camel trader, Aishah (RA) was the first ever female scholar & used to work at the market. You make a point about raising your family etc etc, I'm a single mother as my husband was NOT a good man. I had to WORK to leave him. I still WORK to feed my kids. Sorry, but as long as you don't transgress the rules of Islam, there is no ruling which says a woman can't work. Men aren't intellectually different - I've met some very stupid men in my time.

Aside from the practical financial aspects, a women who has academic or intellectual interest may find it very difficult to stay at home. If a women's only role is to raise children, by his logic, there is no reason to get a college degree. What will she major in, and how will she pay back the loans? High school is enough to teach children math and science. Sisters, know your rights & know seerah of the prophet (PBUH) and the Holy Quran. Lastly, put your trust in Allah (SWT), not in men.

[mira99ist]

Surely, women who choose to be stay home and be mothers have every right to and family should be first priority. However, to use Islam to say women's role is only to be a mother and wife and that career and motherhood are mutually exclusive is just wrong.

[mira99ist]

And need I mention she interacted with our beloved prophet (PBUH) regarding her business dealings. If I don't have a professional degree and work, and my husband dies, I wonder if he would pay my bills. At our local mosque, there were three small children collecting money during Jummah because their father got laid off and off course their mother did not work. Then its not at issue to teaching to to be scholars, but putting food into their mouths.

[mira99ist]

With all the respect to this brother, I am very disappointed in his views regarding wormen working. So women should stay home and raise children unless they only a limited number of jobs. No engineering? Allah (SWT) made us all different, and hence we all have different interests. Not everyone wants to be an OB/GYN or teacher. Kadijah (PBUH) was a business women and worked even though she had two children from previous marraige.

Assalamualikum I envy man, for their character,nobility and strength. They contribute greatly to the society as a person I disagree the fact that woman and man are different in emotionally, intellectually.I know a guy that cries easily,a girl who would act as in she is in no pain (to which she keeps groaning about).Its not like we woman want to leave are children and go to work rather, just like man we want to contribute to society as a person.Like Aisha and Khadija But allah knows the best

[saeem7]

we now know this is right...but i dont think i cud have explained it nearly as good as sheikh

[HasratDisimpan]

The lecture is titled the "Importance of Following the Sahaba", what about the importance of following the Prophet (pbuh)? Did he ask Khadijah to stay home and raise his children? Please remember that it is her wealth/business that enables the prophet to (take time off and NOT work) to meditate, help free the slaves that converts to Islam in the early days. Her protection and connection that enables the prophet to keep ministering relatively safe from 610 (1st wahyu)-619when Khadijah died.
