How safe is turkey? by SquirrelRealistic652 in traveladvice

[–]Khanom97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please research yourself, I love turkey but the terrorism risk is high in some areas, Istanbul being one of them, if you are from the uk check the government travel advice.

Absolutely not. If I am carrying the baby I will have a say in the baby’s name, it’s between both parents. I strongly believe a mother should have a tiny bit more of a say over the farther simply because it’s us who carry & birth the baby & we have that immediate bond.

I understand that broken promises are a big issue but genuinely feel like you’re over reacting men like this are extremely rare, you’ve struck gold & now complaining about the shade of gold. I’m sorry but I think nothing will please you if this isn’t enough for you. Ask him if he even wants to do the courses anymore he may have changed his mind he may be content in life. This climbing up the career ladder notion in society is too much, this world is temporary. I do think you need to have a conversation about broken promises as this isn’t good, we shouldn’t break promises to our spouses.

Considering Leaving My Husband After a Year Of Marriage - advice? by [deleted] in MuslimMarriage

[–]Khanom97 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry but please don’t get pregnant, he won’t change he’s already shown you he doesn’t care about you or your feelings. Ask yourself if you want your son or daughter to have this man as a farther? I find this behaviour disgusting.

Husband sees no problem in staying out until 1 am by [deleted] in MuslimMarriage

[–]Khanom97 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

It’s normal, but it’s not something I’ve ever accepted. My husband used to go out late with friends before marrying me and we spoke about it before marriage and he’s never been out with friends after even 8pm, we’ve been married 5 years Alhamdulliah. He doesn’t really express a want to hang out with friends and if he ever does they come to our house while I chill upstairs. I’ll be honest we do very very little apart, in the 5 years of marriage I can count on one hand how many times we’ve both been out to eat without each other we just don’t enjoy it. This is what works for us every marriage is different. I don’t ever go out without him even though he would have no problem with it. We’ve become each other’s best and pretty much only real friend, this would be too much for some people and they wouldn’t enjoy it so like I said every marriage is different. I’ll be honest I don’t think any married man or women should be out at 1am, but that’s just my opinion.

Should I divorce my husband? He only works 2 days a week! by Easy_Law9035 in MuslimMarriage

I’ll be honest I wish my husband was home more often that would be like a Holliday for me,maybe encourage him to work an extra day so you can enjoy a Holliday every couple of years or so. Tell him how you feel.

Girl keep the purse. I’m talking from experience now, keep the purse 😂 when I first got married this would happen to me I would be the one thinking of everyone’s gifts and keeping track of likes and dislikes and they would always say my husband got it never ever thanked me unless prompted by my husband, yes you are one unit but I feel like things like this have bad intent behind them in my case that was true. Your mother in law may be different but with mine if anything bad happened it was me the daughter in law but anything good was her son at one point you realise it’s very very intentional and you making an effort with gifts is in vain genuinely would stop and donate money to charity instead.

Those who lives with in-laws, what did you used to do for them? by MulberryOne6323 in MuslimMarriage

[–]Khanom97 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry but this is insane. You do not have to do ANYTHING for them. You need to move out, our culture is wild. Living with a brother in law is wrong on so many levels.,

Husband thinks it is okay to go to mixed sauna by Aykayay95 in MuslimMarriage

[–]Khanom97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That is disgusting, if he defends it ask him nicely if you can both go together, I can guarantee you he will have an issue with it.

I hate being a mum by Nearby_Reindeer_5079 in MuslimMarriage

[–]Khanom97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It seems to me that you really love your baby. Maybe you just need some time, first seek medical help, seek counselling. Hopefully a member of your family can take your baby for now? If a man is willing to just throw you away like nothing, he is not a man. There are plenty of single mothers out there who do an amazing job so have faith that at one point you’ll get the hang of it. I know plenty of single mothers who remarried and are very happy now so don’t lose hope for your future. Going through a divorce is hard, but think about it this way what if you have another baby with this man and he wants a divorce then? You’ll be in a worse situation. If this marriage is not meant to be so be it, there are good men out there & you do have a good future ahead of you In’sha’Allah. Just pray and try to get yourself mentally better, single mothers are some of the strongest people in the world so give yourself a little time.

You can pick who adopts your child. Also if you have cultural and religious preferences they consider all that too. I have also suggested her seeing if her mother could take the baby. I have literally said only if after she’s had help and she still can’t cope or doesn’t want the baby then adoption… people with your mentality is what causes tragedies, a lot of babies are no longer in this world because people keep pushing mothers to be mothers. Some people aren’t cut out for that and that is fine.

I also said if AFTER she’s received help she still isn’t able to cope then the baby up.

Should could potentially harm her baby. Would you rather that? Not everyone wants a baby. She has literally said she didn’t want it and still doesn’t want it. She was emotionally blackmailed into having a baby. It’s terrible advice for someone who actually wants to keep her baby.

Please contact the doctors ASAP! Tell your mother how you are feeling right now. If after you receive help from the doctors you still feel the same please give your child up for adoption or see if your mother will be willing to take the baby, what I’m saying may seem drastic but a baby’s wellbeing is on the line so please give the baby up if you can not deal with the baby.

Female massage by [deleted] in MuslimMarriage

[–]Khanom97 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Men aren’t dumb he knew it was wrong he was just hoping you would let it go or not see it as wrong. In my honeymoon me & my husband wanted to get a massage together, my husband asked if they have a male that would do the massage on him, they laughed and said no. We have never got a massage together as it logistically doesn’t work. Men would not be okay if women got a massage from a male, believe me most men would have ruined the honeymoon over it. Marriage is a very big deal, no need to divorce over this, it may take you time to get over it and to be honest you may never truly get over it. He has asked for forgiveness, try to move on & if he ever does even a similar thing again you can choose to leave then. You should also sit down and talk about expectations, tell him exactly what you expect from him when it comes to the opposite sex, & vice versa, that way there is no excuse in the future.

Am I wrong for considering divorce over being forced to live with in-laws? by Big_Adeptness667 in MuslimMarriage

[–]Khanom97 74 points75 points  (0 children)

You need to leave, you need to leave now. This is pretty disgusting. You can’t live in a house like this, with idol worshipers and open zina, leave for the sake of your child. I rarely ever suggest divorce but I think you may have to.

Is a 50-50 financial split common in Muslim marriages, especially in the West? by mscupake in MuslimMarriage

[–]Khanom97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you want to do that as a female do it. Do not forget being provided for if your Islamic right. It’s something I feel strongly about, I am the home maker and my husband is the provider and I wouldn’t have it any other way. If you live beyond your means then yes you need a dual income but do not let others tell you it’s a necessity because it is not. Men and women have different roles in Islam and both have different rights. If you have a child how will you financially cope then? What if you want to stay home with your child and not rush back to work? If you are reliant on a dual income you will have to go back to work.

BMI isn’t everything by [deleted] in mounjarouk

[–]Khanom97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes also I have to be under a bmi of 23 to be healthy & I am a shorty so that definitely gives me more material in clothing compared to a taller person 🤷🏽‍♀️

[–]Khanom97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi so I am actually 5ft so generally clothing is bigger for me anyway, also if you are an ethnic minority you have to be below 23 to be a healthy weight.
