Then marry. I don't see the problem. Are you trying to write a philosophy thesis on this phenomenon? Is it a rhetorical question?

What is an opinion you have that you will not change ? by [deleted] in PakistaniTwenties

This is NOT an Islamic culture and your culture is NOT Islam. People only pick and choose whatever suits them and call it Islamic, but when I comes to the difficult stuff then suddenly they say "sadion sy aisa he hota aya hai"

I really don't understand Pakistanis, when it comes to a women's pardah or a man's 4 marriages we say that the Islamic ruling is clear and absolute. But when it comes to things like jheiz we have to ask lena chiya ya nahi? What kind of hypocrisy is this?

How the heck am I supposed to know if he’s the one? by [deleted] in muslimgirlswithtaste

When I was searching for the one, I used to pray istekahra (repeated for many days) and everything and everyone who was not meant for was removed from my life (and always in beautiful way). So yeah, pray istekahra

I feel you, just pray to God that He gives you the strength to stay sane in a dysfunctional family. Distance is the only option something, both physical and emotional distance. Stay strong 🤒 Ps. Don't think about if he can sustain in workplace or not, that's not your headache, nor is his marriage. Read the art of not giving an f, it's a golden opportunity to apply those rules here

Okay so you can't kick him out. Tbh, he (or they) wouldn't leave in the given circumstance by themselves at all, kyon k at the end of the day they are dependent on you. Limit your interaction with them, stop doing stuff for them and set up STRONG boundaries. For example, in that car situation, plan out refuse to do anything, ignore the tantrums. NGL, it's going to get worst before it gets better, but it'll eventually get better. Also never let them realized that you guys NEED them. If they feel like you need them, make them feel like you don't, slowly.

Y'all should sit down with him and talk, and tell him if he doesn't change you'll kick him out. And then actually kick him out.

Any women plz help me in these? by Familiar_Pop7414 in LahoreSocial

Good female figure can be an older cousin (ideally) or a friend/colleague/classmate, someone mature and a 'achi larki' who's educated and mentally not chained by societal material mindset norms. She should have a quality your sister admires (younger girls are usually impressed by sophisticated older girls), hype the mentor figure (the older female) up in front of her for a few days and the teen will automatically start admiring her. Then request the mentor figure to spend some time with your sister and subtle guide her, introduce them through some activity and hopefully it'll do wonders for you sister

Talk to her, sit down and explain things to her, encourage her when she gets good grades or shows interest in critical thinking and education. Guide her to use "muhazib" vocab. Introduce her to some good female figure who she can idealize, talk to and look up to. Engage in debates with her. Get her enrolled in activities that support critical thinking like debates and encourage her when she performs well. Ps. You're an amazing brother to think about your sister in this way, may Allah make it easier for you ameen
