Not This Ramadan Please! by HaneefahRN(f): 9:30pm On Jun 17, 2016
Just thought of sharing this.



She wakes up 2am to start preparing the food, when the food is ready, she wakes him up at around 3:45am to take sahoor. He gets up, brushes his teeth and attacks his bowl of food topping it with water, tea or pap. He burbs and reclines in contentment.

He then goes to perform fajr and comes back to continue with his sleep till 6:30am when he gets up to prepare for work.

Meanwhile, madam who prepared the food from 2am cannot go back to bed because she needs to wash the plates, sweep the compound, bath the kids and prepare them for school, etc. Then she prepares to go and sell whatever her trading entails or goes to work.

She returns home around 4pm quite exhausted and begins preparing for Iftaar. She combines cooking with fetching water if there is no tap in the house.

Meanwhile our man may have arrived then, greets, enters the room to change his clothing and takes his bath after which he rests waiting for Iftaar.


After Iftaar, she does her tidying up, and goes to bed around 10pm only to be approached by our man for the 'sunnah of the bed', and don't forget she'll wake up 2am to start the cycle again.

Ironically, with all these suffering she supports the house in whatever way she can with her earnings. Subuhanallah!


This is the situation in some conservative Muslim homes (I might have left our some even more unpleasant issues) .

We would like to call on our Ulamas (scholars), Imams, to counsel some of our brothers who subject their wives to such inhuman treatment because of their understanding of marriage being that wives are to 'serve'the husbands.


Let them know wives are partners in marriage and not servants. They are supposed to be treated with dignity, love, compassion.



Meanwhile, let me say 'salaam' to all husbands who treat their wives like Queens. Allah bless them and give them Peace in this World and the Day of Judgement.

Not just not this Ramadan, not this year, not this decade, not this century.

This type of poo needs to stop.
