Re: Women Wow!
Forgiving and forgetting over something like getting drunk on the way home is one thing. Forgiving and forgetting when your husband has committed adultery is something different. You take him back, and you're condoning his actions. Flat out Islam says that if someone has committed adultery, the punishment is death. Its that unforgivable.
Praising a woman who is totally saccrificing her entire happiness so mr. wonderful get get away with somethign and not get in trouble for it because wifey doesn't report him and keeps mum about it is actually aiding the problem.
As for the kids and the fact that they might have to grow up without a dad - better for that to happen, then for them to find out later what father did and that father wasn't punished for it, and that mother was in pain at their expense for the rest of their life. You really need to maybe meet some people who have grown up in such homes, and find out how much aggression they have towards their father.
And most importantly, no male spares and forgives and forgets when a female makes the "mistake" of sleeping with someone else.
You know why? Because its not a mistake. Period. Its a horrible thing to do, and you break your marriage contract by doing so. Its unacceptable. And its about time you girls stop defending guys who misbehave.
Very few do real repenting over these things.
Now if you're taking about something that is reversible, and therapy can be done - like solving someone's alcohol problem or gambling problem, then that's another thing. You can't reverse the fact that your husband has cheated on you.
I'm not saying these forgiving women are weak. They are strong. But that doesn't mean they should have to put up with these things. Your own religion that you believe in has a SEVERE law against these actions, and yet you applaud it when women sit mum and don't say anything when God already gave them the right to do something about it when their husband cheats on them.
Shame. Anything to defend men, right? Suck up all you want. Its not making you any more pious than a sham mualvi.
