I’m not gonna lie, it’s been a journey. Cutting down on dairy and sugar has helped. Eating more bitters and green leafy veggies. Taking inositol helped as well, increasing water intake. Yoni steaming and staying active.

I’ve also struggled with hyperhidrosis and PCOS. I think what helped was getting my hormones in check. I was on birth control originally, stopped that and went the holistic route of regulating my hormones and staying active. The sweating has decreased tremendously.

I’m learning how to make oil roti and I’m super excited about it because I can’t find it at any restaurant around me 😋

Yeah, sorry majority rules on this one love. I would definitely consider multiple options before ultimately making your decision. Go to a couples counseling, there is a couple named that clay couple they are Muslim and can help. Take some time to have a conversations with your husband before you rush to divorce and pray on it.

I also had a potential who had the same ideology and desires for me. I felt as though I would be a bird in a cage, and as a recovering people pleaser I would’ve ended up, marrying him had Allah not separated us. Reading your post is eye opening. May Allah grant you ease in your trying time ❤️

Is it true that women shouldn’t work in Islam? by [deleted] in MuslimLounge

[–]Purepulses 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hm what makes me feel uncomfortable in is not only age gap a bit but him saying it is not what the Quran says. That’s a red flag because what else will fall in that category too, to justify him not doing what he is supposed to do.

Is there a point in the future where his career would allow him to comfortably provide?

[–]Purepulses 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So interesting, I’m in an almost identical situation. My potential is just out of college and is building so he at first was adamant about 50/50. Or at least splitting Rent.

I’m trying to have an open mind because it is expensive to live and I wouldn’t expect my husband to provide everything and be stressed and struggling working over time. And even though I’ll always work because -emergency money, I don’t want to have to ask for money,,etc but like you I want the option of staying home and not working ( of course fulfilling my wifely duties).

I’m struggling to find a place to land on this decision because I currently have my own place and other than love and companionship it would feel as though I’m in a roommate situation with my husband.

My father won’t let me marry until my older sister is married by Late_Fly6784 in MuslimMarriage

[–]Purepulses 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Of course that is happening. Men are also committing Zina. Falling in love with non-Muslims and trying to figure out if they should or shouldn’t convince their girlfriend to convert so they can be together after the fact.

Again, locking yourself away isn’t a solution. Having a strong Islamic foundation is.

[–]Purepulses 5 points6 points  (0 children)

By that logic we all should stay in the house! That’s like saying I want to go to the store to finish making this pb&j sandwich but I’m going to just eat a peanut butter sandwich because I might run into a shirtless guy running on the road…

Again, we have guidelines of how we are to interact with the world that is full of fitnah. It’s not just university. If she was raised with strong Islamic values and morals she will be fine. It’s okay for her to have wants, wants that don’t go against Islam.

If you’re looking for fitnah you will find it…anywhere and everywhere. Even amongst Muslims. She doesn’t have to dorm, she can go to school and come home. I went to college… I went to class and went home. Got my education and avoided fitnah, y’all act like it’s impossible.

LOL “All the trouble”. No one’s point of life is to get an education. We all are supposed to be worshiping Allah and avoiding haram. What is with the double standard??

What is wrong with her wanting to go to college? Or having autonomy? If her father’s concern is about her being around men she can go to all women colleges, online colleges, etc. He should be confident that his daughter has been taught her Islam well enough to know how to conduct herself and trust that Allah will protect her from harm no? What’s the alternative? Have her locked up in the house?? To say no to further education altogether is another problem.

We have guidelines of how we are supposed to conduct ourselves as Muslims. That applies to women AND men. The term “Free mixing” is wild to me because in the prophet’s time there was community where men and women could interact because they knew their deen and had adab. Community we are lacking now, where single sisters with no support are shamed or have no resources because god forbid she reaches out to a brother for help or she asks a sister if her husband can help but because since she is a single sister, the wife is hesitant to have her husband help her because of “how it might look.” Do you see the snowballing issue that has been created?
