How can anyone not like panjeeri.?.I need an excuse to eat it..All chilla woman who don’t want theirs please send me a PM.
Ok here’s a good one..I know this person she got married, conceived within the first few months..we went to their place just to meet her as I wasn’t there on her wedding. She didn’t come out of her bedroom, cos apparently I was cursed with fertility thingie and she didn’t want any bad vibes transferred to her.
I thought that’s a new one.. I didn’t know one can ‘catch’ infertility
^hehe, I have more..like this woman (hubby’s friend’s wife) doesn’t hug any other ladies..her explanation(more fun in urdu): ’ jab ladies apas mein galay milti hein na tou breasts touch hoti hein uss say aik dosray ki *balaen *transfer ho jati hein’
mm...u need to meet the pregnant ladies of gs so they will hug you and will transfer their fertility to you ...lol... that is pathetic what women will believe and say .....
is there anyone here who knows how to make different kinds of panjeeri....my sil's mother makes it for her using just 3-4 ingredients goondh char maghaz and some other things...it is more simple than the one my dad makes.... and no I can't ask her we do not speak.... so if any of you know of any recipes ...pls share with us all...
I have seen soooooooo many women do that- they don’t shower for 40 days. It’s a really common thing in Pakistan to not shower while you’re having your periods. When I was visiting I was told it’s because your body bloats up or some nonsense like that. So I guess that’s where it stems from, and women think that if you just had a baby and you’re bleeding, stay away from the bathroom- pretty gross, honestly.
A friend’s mamoo took leave earlier this year from work so he could go to Pakistan this December to get married, and there was big drama when he was asked to cancel his trip by the girl’s side. The preps had begun, his family was all excited but a couple of months later, the girl’s family said they couldn’t do it in December anymore, and wanted to postpone it to the December of the next year. The reason was, bride’s bhabi got pregnant and was due to have her baby at the end of November, and since she wasn’t allowed to shower for 40 days, they didn’t want to have the wedding before January. So in the end, the groom’s family now has to wait one entire year to get him married because apparently, grabbing your towel, stepping into the bathroom and showering is just so difficult and unimportant.
Who knows if someone else gets pregnant in the family next year, poor guy will have to stay unmarried for some more time.
And how miserable for the woman! Whether it’s during menstruation or post-delivery, being clean and fresh has not only a physical but also a mental and emotional effect. I don’t know how this kind of ignorant and disgusting behavior has become prevalent in our culture.
Woah what weird ideas people have The only thing Ive personally heard from that list is the eating of panjeeri!!
Some of them are just plain gross, I feel bad for the poor women who are forced to live like that!!
I had lovely baths and showers at hospital, the cubicals were so big and it was so relaxing, especially them chairs for mothers in the showers, jsut sit and shower and relax, nways after 45 days i went to my mother in laws and she said ''have u done your chillah bath'' and i said ehm no wots that? and she said u r meant to have a bth with the baby in your lap and someone pours water over you!!! arggh! wot the hell? nway it made me look stupid asking what a chillah bath is as these owmen assume u know all this nonsense and secondly i dont blv in it. imagine that u and ur naked baby int he bath and ur mother or sister is meant to come in and pour water over yous at the same time. haha
my friend did it, so embarrasiing.
i did eat panjeeri - but when at hospital i drank lots of ice cold water, i was told by the midwives to do this after my son was born. my mother in law was giving me eyes as it shud have been hot water i was drinking! who do u follow the old traditionalist or medical staff? i get regular back ache and i have heard it may have been the cold water i drank that causes this, not sure.
There's a few ladies in the family whom have been trying to get pregnant for years. They went to some peer not sure if skih or muslim ''baba's''. and they gave them a taweez to wear and they were told not to enter a house where a women is doing her '40 day chilla@ or hug them. but that's so weird u could pass someone in the town and not know they are in their 40 days unless u see a newborn and investigate if baby over 40 days old lol nway one aunty had another miscarriage and the week before she bumped into her neice that had just had a baby, so yes as u guessed the blame was put on that 'meeting'.
argggh!
another case was where a girl had a baby and her family is really really old fashioned blvs in all these traditions and she wanted to visit her friends new born so she took off her taweez and went to there house. nways about a year later her own son was diagnosed with a terminal disability and although her imaan is strong but due to her family bringing her up in these traditions she gets down and blames herself for taking taweez off and entering another chilla house. and blaming herself for her sons condition.
such a shame these women carry on following silly superstitious traditions and still call themselves muslims. this is known as shirk, small sin by blving in something non islamic, maybe its major shirk not sure.
anything we blv to do or follow we shud try to find it in the hadith or the qurans and if its there then we shud follow it as Allah has only created beneficial things for us.
.I need an excuse to eat it..All chilla woman who don’t want theirs please send me a PM.
