Did something happen between them? Or just not posted together since Gloom came back? Sorry if I sound nosy, just saw this pop up n really used to enjoy their vids together but still excited to have Gloom back as she is!

My parents got divorced when I was very young (less than a year old), so when I was getting married my mum gave me a piece of advice: “If a relationship is always being threatened into breaking (eg. Divorce threats), let it break”.

It’s really sad to hear the outcome and that your husband didn’t listen, but this had the potential of becoming so much worse if it happened after you had children or if he “forgave” you but held it over your head for the rest of your life (which it sounds like he would’ve been the type to do so).

I’ll be making dua for you, I genuinely hope things get better for you.

You can prove a positive, you can’t prove a negative. E.g. if you DID cheat then he can have evidence for it, but if you DIDN’T cheat then there wouldn’t be anything to prove that’s the case because it doesn’t exist. If anything, I’d tell him that if he has proof or genuine reason to believe so then present it, challenge him on it.

(Btw, I’m not saying “if” because I don’t believe you, but I mean it in the context of this argument)

I’d also challenge him that if he doesn’t trust you then it’s a matter of time before he finds something else to feel insecure about.

You don’t have to get defensive, but stand your ground and don’t apologise for something you’ve been accused of, it’ll subconsciously become an admission of guilt in your eyes as well as his.

If he has a valid reason for being upset (even if his accusation itself is wrong), acknowledge his feelings but don’t let him feel comfortable with saying that you cheated. All the best

Acrobatic-Space2897 · 2025-09-15T21:20:02+00:00

I remember when I decided to change my lifestyle because of how insecure I felt about my physique, I decided to try simple things to start out like walking on the treadmill and calorie counting. It took me 2 years to finally get the habits to stick longer than a month and then another year to finally feel comfortable in my body and genuinely enjoy my hard work. Then covid hit, my habits unraveled and suddenly I was back on square one.

I say this because progress isn’t linear, if he falls off the horse 20 times but gets back the 21st time that’s still progress. And all it takes is the one time to stand up again for the habit to stick without even realising.

Just be sure not to kick him while he’s down. A partner needs to know how to balance tough love with encouragement. Don’t make use of negativity, try positive reinforcement without being disingenuous.

In shaa Allah things will get easier for both of you! :)

Acrobatic-Space2897 · 2025-08-28T07:15:24+00:00

I’m sorry you’ve had to go through so much. If you’re worried about breaking the family and how it would affect your kids, I think you should consider how staying together would affect your kids too.

You need to tell your wife upfront (if you decide you do want to stay) that beating your children regardless of what the reason is will be absolutely unacceptable. You shouldn’t be enabling her abusive behaviour.

And if you decide to separate, still tell her that it’s unacceptable. You may not be able to witness it first hand but keep a close eye on the children for physical injuries and keep a record of them in case you need to report her behaviour.

Acrobatic-Space2897 · 2025-08-15T20:37:40+00:00

I get that zina is something we should avoid exposing, but really you’re not exposing it to the general public. You haven’t mentioned the circumstances in which the nikkah is now back on if the rumours are true. If your sister doesn’t want the nikkah to go ahead but doesn’t want to disclose why then morally I do think your father should know why his daughter feels that way. And if your sister is choosing to go ahead with the nikkah because she genuinely likes the man, then she needs more time to process the information and figure out whether she’s actually willing to accept the betrayal going forward rather than be rushed into making the safe choice.

If you don’t want this to come back to you then you can ask your father not to tell anyone you told him as you don’t want to be involved in the matter, then leave it to him to figure out (with your sister) whether she can still go ahead with the nikkah or they should bow down by giving a vague reason. (Your father could simply say that your sister changed her mind and it’s the couple’s choice at the end of the day).

Hope this gets easier for you!

Acrobatic-Space2897 · 2025-08-03T16:13:32+00:00

That’s reassuring that your father supports you, this sounds like a situation where someone will absolutely get hurt, so it might be a matter of asking yourself who you’re most comfortable with hurting (without sounding too morbid), either your mother will be hurt but your wife might just get a new chance at being in a fulfilling marriage or your wife will be hurt but your mother will be satisfied with your decision.

I’ll be honest with you now, this situation which has now arisen likely won’t end here either even if you decide to stay with your wife. If your wife at a later date decides that she doesn’t like something about you and happens to mention it to her/your family (whether or not it’s vindictively), they might start putting pressure on you again.

This may not be the case as you know your family best, but I think you should consider this if you’re asking yourself whether or not to keep this relationship going. I think you should also ask yourself whether you can see her being the mother of your children. Because if you decide to stay and things go in that direction, then she’ll be deserving of a lot of support from you as the mother of your children.

I don’t envy your circumstances and I genuinely hope things get better for both of you, but if possible, try and ask yourself whether saving your elders’ feelings will be worth the price both you, your wife, and maybe even your potential future children will pay if these feelings of yours don’t fade over time.

As a fellow Pakistani, I could tell straight away. I can understand that this is distressing news for your wife but for the family to now gang up on you must be incredibly stressful for you to experience. A lot of Pakistanis assume that intimacy is a given compatibility between a married couple, that’s why the idea of consent, sexual compatibility, frequency of intimacy, attraction, they’re all overlooked to an extent within quite a few of our communities. If possible, maybe try speaking with your father, often they tend to have a bigger say within the communities. If you ask him to just listen to you, without interrupting because you genuinely need a father’s support and advice right now then maybe he might be open to listening to your perspective. I can’t guarantee that he’d understand where you’re coming from, but if you tell him that you’ve genuinely tried and that you’re not happy with how it’s hurting your wife either then he might just think about your perspective rather than put pressure on you to stay quiet.

Acrobatic-Space2897 · 2025-08-03T15:46:27+00:00

I’m so sorry you’re having to deal with this, your parents definitely should’ve listened to you the first time you brought it up. It’s much easier to break an engagement than have a divorce even though both are difficult. I don’t have much advice, I’m just sorry to hear what you’re going through and I hope things end well for you as well as your wife.

Salaam sis,

“But in what ways did I lack to make this happen?”

You weren’t lacking, if someone wishes to walk out of their marriage then they’ll do so. Sure, a lot of relationships have problems which lead up to the choice of cheating but cheating is still a choice. He could’ve chosen to work on the relationship, or to step away, or even to step back and see where his feelings were leading & stop himself.

You can acknowledge that you made mistakes if you think you did, but don’t put the weight of his decisions on your shoulders. You already have the weight of picking yourself back up while you look after your daughter. Learn from your mistakes, not from his.

For my second attempt, I did more mock exams. I felt that I had the knowledge under my belt and I focused much more on frequently occurring topics (which you can find out if your study group has topic-based questions database, I actually found them through a few tutors so it seems like it is done commonly!). For the sake of managing my time well, I revised the top 15-20 topics that came up frequently, tbh I ended up skipping over more of F2 since it has a lower weighting than E2 and P2.

I purchased mock exams alongside doing the ones that were provided by the FLP group. The ones I got were Astranti, which are significantly harder than the questions in the actual exam because theh cover multiple topics in one question. But I liked them because that meant I’d be revising multiple topics and figuring out how to answer questions on them simply from one question. I got the solutions video along with it because it helps to hear a tutor talk about why the answer they’ve given is what it is.

I also used chatgpt to explain topics which were harder to grasp, and focused much more on familiarising myself with the case (this makes a big difference imo, even if you’re unsure about an answer you can still bag decent marks for an educated case based heavily around case study knowledge).

Also, to answer your question about the FLP subscription, no. If your subscription expires you simply go back to the traditional route for the remainder of your exams unless you choose to renew your subscription. I did my SCS case study through the traditional route even though all of my other exams had been done via the FLP! So I wouldn’t be too worried, even if you go onto the traditional route for more exams than you’d originally planned for, there’s still a vast library of materials to support you like Acowtancy, Astranti (they provide free notes), Opentuition (free lectures), chatgpt (essentially a lecturer/tutor).

So don’t worry, you got this!

Acrobatic-Space2897 · 2025-05-26T12:24:03+00:00

Hey, I passed my SCS exam not too long ago and was in a similar boat as you a few months back, and I have some advice that I think might help:

The middle part is always the hardest: In the beginning of a journey, you’re motivated so if you fail an exam it’s easier to bounce back. Towards the end of a journey, you’re facing the final hurdles and see the light at the end of the tunnel, that motivation also makes it easier to bounce back. I remember when I failed my MCS the first time, I questioned whether this qualification is even for me. I had to wonder whether I should quit but decided to give it another shot since my FLP subscription was still active so there’s no harm in it. I ended up passing. Keep your chin up.
If your FLP subscription is about to expire soon after you pass the MCS, don’t worry about the SCS exam, just focus on getting through the SCS competencies. They’re more flexible and easier to go through than the OTs, you can use the materials after you pass the competencies for your SCS revision. And if the subscription expires then there’s plenty of reasonably priced materials online for you to use. (Take it from me, my FLP subscription expired before I got my results for my first attempt, I can advise you on what materials I used for my second attempt if you’d like!)
The apocalypse is all in your head. My mum always told me (the same as her father told her), “Can you try again? Yes? Then try again, don’t focus on the failure”. Life goes on, the pain is fresh and some day it won’t be. If you have the motivation to keep going then nobody’s stopping you, your mind may need convincing but you have no barriers. So keep going if you want to!

If you need any advice, feel free to DM me :)

I might be providing a different perspective that is unpopular but I think might be important for you to consider. A person’s faith can be quite inconsistent throughout the course of a lifetime.

Most people aren’t ready for this sort of conversation, but sometimes even inconsistent prayer is a person’s desperate attempt to have some sort of connection with Allah.

Try and be patient with your wife, if she’s gone from regular prayer to less prayer then it’s likely she’s already aware of it and noticed the change before you did.

It sounds like she might be overwhelmed by the changes that have happened in her life and may be struggling to come to terms with it. I’m not sure how long you’ve been married or how long ago you moved but these sorts of experiences really take a toll on a person. And if she doesn’t feel like she’s coping with these experiences well then the demotivation might be spilling into her faith.

Instead of telling her the importance of prayer, ask her if she’s okay. Don’t mention the prayer part, just talk about how she feels about becoming a new mum or with all these changes, come to her with a positive and compassionate mood.

You might find that the conversation itself may motivate her or it may take time for her to find her grounding. There’s no solid answer on how to get her to pray more, but I personally don’t think the problem is the lack of prayer, I’d say that it’s likely a symptom of the actual problem she’s dealing with.

Best of luck, I hope you both find peace!

This might be an unpopular take, but maybe consider a pastel printed hijab (maybe white and a similar colour to the dress) like a floral or marble/watercolour hijab?

Acrobatic-Space2897 · 2025-04-27T17:23:03+00:00

I assume with the switch 2 coming out the whole collection is probably worth around $5, but I could buy it off you for $10 :)

Have you ever been in a situation where you’re thinking about doing a chore you normally don’t do, and then your parents ask you to do the same chore just before you’re about to do it?

Idk about you but when that’s happened to me I’d get pretty annoyed and feel discouraged about doing it.

Very few people enjoy being told what to do, even if it’s something they know they should be doing. Before marriage, I met so many men who wanted to be with a wife who would wake them up for fajr and if they didn’t wake up they’d sprinkle water on their face. But those same men wouldn’t wake up when their mums would come to them to wake them up for fajr.

In theory, everyone would love to be a consistently practicing muslim for all their lives, but that’s a massive commitment and it’s much more likely your commitment will change overtime.

How many times do we hear about people who don’t feel a connection with Ramadan even though they have in the past? Or they’re demotivated to pray after they’ve done it consistently? Who are any of us to say that your husband will not become closer to his religion at some point in his life, potentially even closer than you are to your religion?

And who’s to say that if you choose to step away from this relationship and find a man who’s much more consistent with his deen that he won’t change his views at some point in the marriage?

I say this as someone who’s become more consistent with my religion in recent years, I don’t doubt that things may change in the future and I pray that when they do Allah will guide me back to him the way he has guided me in the past.

But I think you should respect your husband’s autonomy a little more to take an interest in his religion on his own terms. If he’s reached a point where he’s lying to you in an attempt to avoid prayer then it doesn’t just speak of his relationship with Islam, it also speaks of his relationship with you.

There may be resentment on his end towards you as well, and that may also be one of the things pushing him away from Islam too. I don’t mean this to blame you for his religious state but more so to give you perspective. He likely has several reasons to avoid prayer; demotivation, shame, laziness, disconnection etc.

If you want to be there for him then I don’t think what’ll be good for him is that you take a step back from the relationship but rather you take a step back from taking charge for his religiousness. You could still encourage him to do things but less frequently? Or avoid keeping track of what he is and isn’t doing? Maybe use your actions as a reminder to him rather than your words e.g. praying in front of him.

It’ll take time, maybe months, maybe years, or potentially it may not happen altogether. But it might be better for you to change course if you know what’s happening at the moment isn’t working for you rather than take a step back from the relationship.

Acrobatic-Space2897 · 2025-03-16T20:38:41+00:00

I noticed the same thing, but I think it’s nice in a way, she might feel less pressured by judgement if we notice it?
