mein ne poocha ha keh kia Islam me shohar k waaledein aur behen bhaion ki khidmat kerna, unkay bhi kaam kerna gharelu, ye biwi pe farz ha ya nahi?
simple is that...
?
:)
no, no , no its not farz .. infact biwi can even ask for a maid to help her around the house if her husband can aford it .... yeh hamaaray subcontinent nai had khatam ker di hai , they only get bahoo's to do the housework !! ....
Captain, as far as saas-bahu relationship is concerned, its very very delicate and should be treated as such. In my own experience, my MIL is nice to me. But she also knows how nervous and scared I must be of this new role Im going to be playing. So, she made extra efforts to make me feel comfortable and talk to me. Now, Im thinking of ways I can entertain her and make her feel comfortable when she is here. One side has to make an effort first and Im not saying it has to be the MIL but I will say its tough for the DIL because she is entering a new family and is unsure of herself. Vo apna ghar aur maa baap chordke aati hai.
The reason I said all of that is because I dont think saas ki khidmat is farz on a DIL or Son in law but he/she will want to do it if he/she is treated well on their own. Unkey dil mein khud hi pyar ayega apni saas ke liye agar unki saas unko beta/beiti ki tarha rakhengi.
By the way, I dont believe in one sided khidmat...jo khidmat mein karoon apne shohar ki maa baap ke liye, vo unko mere maa baap ke liye bhi karni chahiye hai...kyun mein bhi kisi ki aulaad hoon...and 50% of this marriage.
Capt..you a guy?? …wow …amazing you think that way…i woman has responsibilities towards inlaws and relations too … moral and religious…but some people do not fully know what that means…
something i read once below , not related to your question exactly but some points might be related:
What the wife is obliged to do is to obey her husband; he is the one whom she is obliged to obey. If the husband agrees that she may visit her family, it does not matter if his parents do not approve.
But a woman should strive to please her husband’s parents and treat them in a manner that is better, and not confront them. This will have a great effect on giving stability to her life with her husband.
You should understand that your husband’s parents may make things difficult for you because they think that you have taken away the one who is most dear to them. So you should handle this matter wisely and not be the cause of arguments or division between your husband and his parents. Rather you should try to help your husband obey and honour his parents, and you will find the effects of that, in sha Allah, in your own children .
You have to treat them kindly, because kindness is never to be found in a thing but it beautifies it, and it is never lacking in a thing but it makes it ugly. If you see that they are treating you badly, then remember the words of Allaah (interpretation of the meaning):
“Repel (the evil) with one which is better (i.e. Allaah orders the faithful believers to be patient at the time of anger, and to excuse those who treat them badly) then verily he, between whom and you there was enmity, (will become) as though he was a close friend”
[Fussilat 41:34]

kiyun ji! mard honay ka ye matlb to nahi hai k mein mardon k her gher Islami kaam per unka sath dun. akhir hum sbko Allah hi ko jwab dena ha.
zulm sirf zulm hota hai chahay jis k sath marzi ho aur uska zalim ko mun tord jwab milna chahiye taakeh usay bhi pata chalay keh mazloomon ki hifazat kernay walay abhi mar nahi gaey.
anyhow! im happy to see that u also know that much about Islamic teachings regarding this topic.
:)
women can defend themselves only if they know the teachings of Islam, otherwise there are also many men and i have seen such men who just use Islam in their favour and when it's their term to implement on themselves, then they say no way.....
well this double policy is a stupidity and total ignorance of men and women offcourse who are involved in brutality against their own sex by using men.
