It’s a good book. It’s written in a way as an elder of the family giving naseehat to a young bride. Having said that, and considering that the book is written, I guess a good 100 years ago, it has lot of cultural influence from that time. Also, because the general audience of that book was girls who hardly had any education ( norm in those days), Molana Thanvi kept the language simple and often added a safety net in his advice, just to keep the reader on the safe side of shariah.

I guess you really get the good sense from that book if you read it in Urdu.

agree with both points in bold…
I’m sure that much is lost in translation.
