That’s over simplistic and naive.. Some men don’t want (or won’t allow) their wives to work or study after marriage.. these are major issues.. Saying ‘don’t ask anything’ or just ‘be content’ is not realistic and in many cases just asking for trouble..

There’s nothing noble (or Islamic) about walking into marriage blind..

I love how people think that if they discuss these things in the beginning they will remain forever. Circumstances change. Asking “will you let me work?” “will you let me study?” can easily change after marriage.

The only thing Islamic about walking into a blind marriage is that Allah has destined whom we are meant to be with. You can ask 100 or even 1000 questions and be satisfied with the answers, but things can change.

Sometimes being over simplistic and naive works as these matters are solely in Allah’s hands.
