Re: Are men and women equal?
Just look at nia. That's all you need to know to understand.
Re: Are men and women equal?
My dear, who is nia? Is she nia_khan? How can you say that she is a perfect woman? I am really curious. Could you please elaborate more?
Re: Are men and women equal?
Lo and behold now we have here our own brownie fem nazis lol! 
Re: Are men and women equal?
Yes men and women are equal in the eyes of ALLAH, we just have different roles to play...............................
Re: Are men and women equal?
Nia is perfect. Period. You don't see that, then get glasses.
Re: Are men and women equal?
Why are you always teasing me, my dear? I don’t need glasses. I have to be more smart to understand your postings.
Re: Are men and women equal?
Okay, alright. I think the best thing I can do, is to avoid you altogether. Happy!!!
Re: Are men and women equal?
Apparently women are not equal, says a woman. Food for thought?
Dear Professor,
I have been reading your answers for quite some time, and have come to the conclusion that you are trying to misguide young and innocent girls by giving them wrong advice.
You never scold them for having affairs and incite them to fight their husbands and answer back their in-laws. This type of advice may work in foreign countries but we are still a family oriented people and hold our values dear. Young girls should be conditioned to obey their husbands and respect their in-laws. If they don’t, very often divorce can end a marriage.
Our society cannot change just because you want the girls to be bold and disrespectful. You should teach them to respect their elders and obey them. They have to learn their place if we want to retain our cultural and social values. A woman is not equal to man. She wasn’t made strong enough. Plus it’s the man who is the breadwinner and woman is the homemaker. The roles are balanced and should not change, as they were so ordained by Allah.
As a mother-in-law, I feel awful when my daughter-in-law ignores my wishes. She hardly bothers informing before going out. As a daughter-in-law, I was very obedient, for my husband would not have it any other way. I always did what my mother-in-law wanted and this means that she often used to order me in issues like what to wear and what not to wear. I cooked what she wanted, and not what I liked. Even after doing everything her way, I used to get scoldings from her. When my son got married, I expected the same decorum from my daughter-in-law, but she is a modern workingwoman who doesn’t think that she should obey her husband or mother-in-law. When I want her to accompany me in family weddings, she refuses making excuses that she has to get up early in order to send the children to school. Unless it’s a very close member’s wedding, madam refuses to attend.
I try to explain to her that she should not do such things, but she doesn’t listen. All these modern theories are disrupting our society and making life very unpleasant. What do you have to say to this, Nadine? Do you realise that you are also contributing in the destruction of our family oriented social fibre?
Re: Are men and women equal?
Btw, I think the MIL above needs to get a grip....... on herself and reality.
Re: Are men and women equal?
kyunkay saas bhi kabhi bahu thi....seems like the poor lady is getting frustrated she cant treat her daughter in law the same way she was treated. i feel bad for her.
Re: Are men and women equal?
I'm totally with Dr. Naik on this one.
Men and women are equally different. Beat that.
Re: Are men and women equal?

The reason why this woman feels the way she does, skhan, and others, is because she is a MIL herself. I bet in her DIL days, she sure didn't feel like kissing her own MIL's feet.
Blah. Women are different than men. We're hypocrites.

Finally!!
Re: Are men and women equal?
I think the sooner you women realize your place in society the better for all involved... the fact that we let you work and get educated should not go to your head and make you forget what your primary responsibilities are, you are hear to bear our children and to feed us.
AAhAHAHAHAH, I'm joking, please no verbal chaantas...
DUCKING/HIDING

Re: Are men and women equal?
women and men have different brains, they are wired differently. women are more empathic, better able to relate to others and better at verbal stuff (like chatting, gossiping). men are better at systemising (understand systems).

you can even test your empathy and systemising here:
