and yeh … I forgot to add this,
You don’t have to go for class to learn how to dance. You necessarily don’t have to be a pro to please him. Just … do it.
I’m sure he’ll understand your intention 
and acknowledge you efforts
lets go together this time tell em i am ur aunty and my name is gammy apa and i’ll wear a burka how about that?
p.s. make sure belly dancers are there 
Munni, let's take Tango lessons together.
ummm....nos, when Munni said "future husband", she didn't mean her fiance, She meant she would belly dance in future to the person who she would be married to at that point in the future.
CurruptAngel,
I understand that you feel its besharami, but when you are married, you will realize that a lot more things are "besharami" that you will be doing, as CocoNut stated. Women often do things themselves, alone, to please their husbands. I would like my husband to take initiative and do things himself just for me as well.
nos,
The reason I put this question here and not in religion forum is because I was well aware people would respond as you responded. That is why I asked specifically people who dont have this view that its haram, to respond. However I do appreciate the input. As maddy stated, I meant the person I would eventually marry. Also, I stated I would learn it for MYSELF, which some individuals missed here. I dont wear hijab, so you can say I have a long way to go in terms of improving my islam, and yes I am aware of what is dressing inappropriately in front of other women, etc.
My muslim arab teacher is an imam, and married, so no he didnt have other ideas in mind, best not to assume. He was merely advising.
Would like to hear more input. Thanks.
.
so what does one have to do to be this sultan ? :P
whats a harem anyway ? forgive me for being naive
there is nothing wrong with taking bellydancing lessons!!!
:Pretty:
CocoNut, Munni
First of all you guys didn't have to get offended as I mentioned before that it's only my personal opinion!:) By the way, I know and I wouldn't have a problem doing all those things that a normal couple does to please each other! To me, there's nothing wrong for a husband and wife to dance together but belly dancing? the reason I didn't like it is because belly dancing isn't a common thing....It's something that even in these days ONLY wh*res do...so...if a wife belly dances even in front of her husband she does resemble a wh*re/belly dancer..I would never want my husband to get that kind of feeling...To please your significant other is a different thing, a totally different thing! I will do anything my husband wants me to do but I won't act like a wh*re to him because I'm not!

What does the "Islamic" law have to say about this?
That a woman can't dance for her husband or learn from another under discretion?
Are you sure its Islamic or just your preference?
[/QUOTE]
CocoNut,
Munni asked:
aMiGo, would you mind if ur wife took lessons?
I answered:
Keeping Islamic rules and regulations in mind..
no...
Where do they teach lap dancing?

CurruptAngel,
I was not offended by any means with your opinion, relating to myself or my choice of dancing or not. That is why I told you and nos that I appreciate your input. You have a right to your opinion as I have to mine.
As far as the w _ _ _ e comment, personally I dont think that way, but to each their own opinion. The word itself has a meaning that in general may not include dancing.
Again, thank you for your opinion, the point of posting here was to get everyones input, which included yours and the others. I was not offended by what you said, and I hope that you are not offended by my statements either. smile

My apologies, I have to say that I never interpreted that correctly. And guys .... I never said that you can't please your husband by dancing, all I said was that, I think, its not the best of ways to do it. I think its not preferred in Islam. Never said that U CAN'T.
What I was referring to was .... the possible situations she could go through while going for classes ....
Idiotic thread, but khair. Just one quick question I had for the audience: Prostitutes aren't human, or can't be Muslim? After all, they perform a service, a much-needed and asked-for service if I may add... so does Islam shut them out, just coz of their job? Kinda ridiculous, if u think about it....
And munni - why do u need to justify what you want to do in life to anybody? It's really between you, your inner self and God, ain't it?
^ ANA , that is just like saying what does islam (or any religion) say about professional slayers becuase they also perform a much needed service. And for the record i dont know any religion under which prostitution is legal and acceptable its not just islam.

Ana, I dont need to justify it to anyone, I am doing it for the purpose of discussion.

Since I can dance Arabian style including belly dancing, me and many other people that I know, so that means in your eyes I'm a wh*re?? PLZZZZZZZ one can do anything she wants with her husband, Muslim pious women are not wh*res as you think just because they keep their men happy!
For some strange reason you think that we do these things in public?

I don't know you neither did I make any stupid assumption about your occupation...really!! First of all, your culture is different from mine...It's not looked at as a good thing in my culture. However, I'm against alot of things that are in my culture...The reason I stated in my other post that belly dancing isn't a common thing...Infact I have never seen or heard this type of activity happening between a husband and wife and I am very very against what goes on in clubs. It's just how I feel, it's my personal opinion and I don't think you should get angry with me if I said that. And I'm not assuming anything about you so don't think like that again please. Thanks.
Munni
It's all good..Thanks for the PM..and good luck with dancing! :)
