| [slm] A sister on the board sent me this. Brothers, do you understand what this is talking about? I'd like to hear what Bro. Hanif and his sidekick Nomi have to say. :) Top Ten Things Only Women Understand 10. Why it's good to have five pairs of black shoes. 9. The difference between cream, ivory, and off-white. 8. Crying can be fun. 7. FAT CLOTHES. 6. A salad, diet drink, and a hot fudge sundae make a balanced lunch. 5. Why discovering a designer dress on the clearance rack can be considered a peak life experience. 4. The inaccuracy of every bathroom scale ever made. 3. A good man might be hard to find, but a good hairdresser is next to impossible. 2. Why a phone call between two women never lasts under ten minutes. AND THE NUMBER ONE THING ONLY WOMEN UNDERSTAND: 1. OTHER WOMEN! |

| [slm] I'm with Yumna. I only understand 2 and 7. And 6, well..I can have that all the time but don't say it's a balanced meal even sarcastically. And I do not understand other women. Heck, I sometimes don't understand myself, ok, almost all of the time, I don't understand myself but what can I do? So this must be based on some survey that did not include me or yumna. ;D Ma-asalaama..... |

| Assalamu 'alaikum, This is really funny. First the heading says "Top Ten things only women can Understand". Then the no. 1 thing that is mentioned says its only women who can understand other women (which is actually very true in my not so worthy opinion :P), and then the anonymous bro./sis. is asking 2 'brothers' to comment on it :-/. Now, what's even funnier is that 2 sisters post and they say they don't understand what all this is about. I guess, the heading should be changed to "Women stuff which none can understand" :) And I feel like the Ikhwan Health Club is getting a bit polluted with all this women stuff :P. Ok, enough said, I better run for cover now........................ |

Y'know I know some men who are more emotional than me. I can't even cry watching Titanic. But when I was pregnant, oooo man, you think you know emotional? I even cried on a Kodak commercial where the son came home for Christmas from the army. I cried like a baby. Pure Kodak moment. Ma-asalaama.... |

| [slm] I even cried on a Kodak commercial where the son came home for Christmas from the army. I cried like a baby. Pure Kodak moment. When my aunt was pregnant, she cried, and I cried with her. *that* was a pure kodak moment because i didn't know what she was crying about until she stoped crying and told me she was pregnant. (She had wanted a baby very much) |

| [slm] Sister. [saw] is what is said after you mention the Prophet [saw]. It means peace be upon him. When I first so the threads, I was like cool. Different rooms for Bros and Siss to chat, but to my surprise (not really cause how can you really do that in cyberworld) it was still a mix which is cool. We all no our limits. Ma-asalaama.... |

| [slm] I have to say I understand perfectly when people say women are emotional, I can totally see why men are a degree higher. Take last weekend for instance (please take it in fact). I'm lying awake, can't sleep so I think OK ten minutes and if I don't nod off I'm going to get up and pray tahajjud (something constructive to do at least), anyways two seconds later there's an almighty crash and I wake my husband saying something's happened innalillah wa inna ilayhe rajeoon (I always say this when I get shocked), so hubby jumps up and looks outside the window and I say no no out front soemthing bad has happened, so we race to the front of our house and our brick wall is completely demolished and there are a load of teenage boys hanging around (at 1 in the morning why do their parents allow it???), it transpires someone accidentally drove into our front wall, I keep thanking Allah (SWT)that we didn't get the pavement lowered otherwise the car would have ended up wedged firmly in our living room :o. I take one look at the mess I (hope the driver is OK....) and insist I want to leave the country now this minute :'( :'( :'(. My long suffering husband explained carefully why we couldn't possibly do this at this time with a baby..... I've done it before too, once a few years back when hubby and I were saving for a house I decided in the middle of the night (can we see a pattern here??) that we absoloutely had to go and perform Umrah now this minute this second (I won that time)... my poor poor husband he never knew he was marrying a mad woman.... |

| [slm] Sister Fozia I feel sorry for your husband .........;) (Just kidding) Well husband has degree over wife but I don't think it's because she is inferior. I think all the creations of Allah Subhan wa tallah are PERFECT without any loophole. Although different creations are assigned different roles and scope of work but who is better that only Allah knows. But certainly it's not going to be decided based on sex, color, race or any other criteria but the criteria will be who is obeying Allah Subhan wa tallah better ..... Wallah hu alam |

| [slm] Okay okay, I'm female, but I was speaking to my Professor's wife sometime during the last academic year (you know you're a nerd when...), and I realized that women really are kind of strange. She was convincing me to convince her husband that she had actually saved him $70.00 by buying a dress on sale which was originally about $200.00. She's like "I actually saved 70 bucks!!! I would never have bought it at its original price." Her husband is like "but dear, our bank account went DOWN $130, not UP by $70. And you would have never have bought it otherwise." heh. Wasalaam. |

| as salaamu alaykum wa rahmatullah, Just wanted to quote here from "Marriage in Islam" by Muhammad Abdul Rauf, slightly edited: [color=black] "... A family, simple or complex, is a team; and the husband is its natural head, responsible for its protection and welfare. A wife should seek to work in cooperation with her husband, and the type of her cooperation depends on the degree of her education, training and general ability and health conditions. During the period of her menstrual discharge, during her pregnancy, and during the postnatal confinement, she is not to be unduly burdened with work. It is probably because the husband's capability is not periodically checked or interrupted by menstruation, childbearing, breastfeeding, etc that God has put him in charge of the family. In this respect the Qur'an reads: "Men are in charge of women, because of the degree men are granted over women, and because of their financial responsibility." (4:34) The degree given to men over women alluded to here is not a degree of preference of men over women in the eyes of God, since the Qur'an, which has established the equality of the sexes, cannot contradict itself. It does allude to the biological differences which impose upon the male partner the task of leadership of the household." [/color] w'Allahu a'lam. wasalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullah |
