What does Islam say?

Re: What does Islam say?

@diwana

Would you care to bring any reference where it is said anywhere a woman has God given ‘right’ to live separate? Bring it on.
No religion of book says that. It is a cultural issue.

The question by OP has been answered repeatedly: There is nothing in Islam or any religion which says how a couple should live. Period.

I only translated the word woman being considered as ‘human being’ to insaaniat, not what you wrote in your last sentence.

Rest of your post is again emotional gesture.

Men in general do not look for their wives to look after their parents. Neither men’s parents look forward to have a bahu for their comfort. That may be some specific example.

All along I have been emphasizing on general attitude.

Which is give love to get love.

Don’t be hostile to his parents from day one..or rather from day minus the marriage date. (Even before marriage).

Go with open mind in to marriage at his house.

Don’t think MIL is evil witch with a broom.

Respect elders.

Try to mix with people.

What is wrong with that?

What goes atound comes around. Someday these so called liberated women will be MIL. Their claim of nurturing their sons to be what they want to be may not work if the boys see mothers being so selfish or disrespectful to elders.

Diwana,

Your posts have been answered repeatedly with yards and yards of text regarding separate housing but it seems you’re practicing selective reading in this thread. I cannot help you with that, it seems more of a personal problem.

As I have said before and will say again…if you do not care about your parents enough to set the examples…please don’t expect your wife to care.

As for my children being raised properly…well…at least now I know what NOT to raise them as.
