@EDAL

What does a name have to do with financial dependence? You have your husbands first name, do you have it cause you are more dependent on him?

Are you trying to imply just cause a lady is educated she shouldn’t take her husbands name?

HMM so you think Hillary CLINTON is not financially independent from Bill CLINTON, how about Michelle OBAMA (took on a tribal African name for her husband)

Nope, actually I work full-time and not financially dependent on him at all… I opted to take his name cuz it was put that way in my nikahnaama and our nikkah took place in Pakistan, jahaan maulvi sahib nai naam daal diya, buss and nobody even noticed I saw when signing it but couldn’t make a fuss then so I kept quiet… it was no big deal to me anyways.

The educated ones know they do not have to take on the husband’s name, as its not required in Islam and is only a cultural thing.
Plus educational documents ka bhi chakkar hota hai, PLUS** most working women** have rational husbands who do not demand their wives take their name.

Hilary Clinton and Michele Obama are not muslims… track par tau raho bhai you keep getting off-track. We were talking about Muslim couples, I believe.
