I don’t think it’s that easy FG…One doesn’t walk out to the shop and get a husband to one’s fitting…Specially a spouse hunt for a woman is not easy…
As far as my personal opinion goes, this ‘career woman’ thingie is something that we are following the west in…And as always, we have to follow what they do, even if it means destroying all that is important in life…
So OK, you want a career life, let’s say you got it…What then? Let’s say you start a fantastic job at 25 and dedicate 10 years of your life to that job…You are now 35…Many women start going through menopause at this time around and pregnancies get more and more difficult as age increases…
Also, the stigma of marrying at a later age…And rightly so, any guy who wishes to get married also wants children…
So, sacrificing something like marriage, which is what is natural and God given for something which is unnatural like a career, what kind of a person would do that? To give up having one’s own children, to raise one’s own family, to lead a life with a lifelong partner…What sensible women will give that up for a life of perpetual loneliness doing the same thing for decades and then dying alone?
You must weigh these things…What is more important? a lifelong partner with whom one can lead a normal life with or a monotonous life repetition?
Forget the wests’ idea of a career woman…The noblest task a Muslim woman can perform is raise a good family and dedicate her life to that goal…
Ask any married woman…Even the unhappy ones…Even then, they wouldn;t have it any other way…
