We read so many threads about how painful the life is for ladies (physical pains) … but I see the rewards/compensations that come with that (at least from religious stand point). I can think of 2 mostly discussed pains
Pain: Labor
Reward: She received the status of mother and holds the paradise under her feet. In worldly terms, this means that is earns the submission of her child, that is if child fails to do that then on the day of judgment he/she will be questioned.
Pain: Menstruation
Reward/Compensation: No namaz is obligated till she takes a bath. That is a good one week of break every month.
Now come to guys. I cant think of any pain other than
Pain: Circumcision:
Rewards/Compensation: Err …
So yes we dont suffer lots of pain maybe but we dont get compensated for none also.
Is this topic worthy of any discussion or am I just babbling!
I would rather pray 50 times a day for a week then suffer through the pain of menstruation. So no, 1 week of not having to pray is hardly compensation!
Men, you do have the pain of being the primary breadwinner for your family and the responsibility of distributing your income appropriately, the pain of being constantly judged by your wives and mothers [general statement], the pain of always being in perfect balance.
Your reward: garam garam roti and tlc from your children and wife. And as D6C mentioned, the hoors
Oh believe me it is nothing like your current life, you think you got it bad round here… in my afterlife you fight endlessly against all those you could not fight with on earth… for eternity!
