Everyone always wondered why Grandma ran out of foodstuff. Her kids would buy bags of rice, especially, thinking it'd cover for the year. It wouldn't. She'd send for more. Even though she lived mostly with a maid, just them two. We found out why after her death.

I am looking for texts (articles, books) written by a northerner about the Biafran war. Also interested in speaking to anyone born in Kano in the 1950s - 1960s who remembers anything at all about the happenings of 1967. Thank you

@Assimalhakeem If a man cheats on his wife, we advise HIM to repent and seek forgiveness from his spouse. It is her decision however, to forgive or to leave. We advise HIM to continue seeking forgiveness from his Creator and avoid the path that led him to cheat.

@Tekanomo_ ... reversible blindness, heart or liver injury. It's a very scary experience. And usually, everything goes back to normal for the mother within days or months after baby is delivered. A friend was blind for almost a week after an emergency cs. So, watch out for preeclampsia

I often remember a story, not sure where I heard it. A housewife demanded an increase in her monthly allowance from her husband. He replied by insisting she didn't need it because all she did at home was "sit and eat" She didn't argue.

They’re all “housewives are very valuable” until compensation for the labor is demanded (& oh boy, it is expensive), then suddenly it’s, “but all you do is sit around at home all day.”

During Ramadan I prayed fervently for three things. The first came through barely days after Ramadan. The second came through last month. I know the third is on it's way. So have faith, Allah is with the faithful. He hears, and He will answer.

I never imagined that I could love anyone more than myself. But the love I have for this child, this flesh of my flesh, I will burn down nations for his smile. At the same time, I will give my life to keep him safe. I will give anything, anything at all. Ya Rabb, watch over him.

@super_ladyR I keep wondering why she didn't become the Anikulapo herself. Why did she give Saro the gourd?

My husband is trying to get ready for work, and then as though he has remembered the most important thing in the world, he turns to ask me "What happened to Saratu?" Me that I am trying to do round 2 of sleep. I ask, "who is Saratu?" He shakes his head.

@Wardah_abbas I wonder if it will help that I came first in my madarasa, even topped all the subjects except for recitation Sha. One lady, Hameedah, she passed us all and still remains the most beautiful reciter I have ever had the privilege of listening to.

Or if he bought me rights to the Eiffel tower, or a library in Turkey. See, dear sisters, go after money if you want. Go after it with your chest. It isn't a sin.

Again, and for clarity, do NOT refer to me, for any reason as a BITCH. I am not a bad bitch, I am not a queen bitch, I am not a bitch. Simple. I appreciate the thought, I do badass stuff, I know. But I am not a bitch. Thanks.

Dearest Muslim woman, Allah created you to worship him. To center you existence upon a marriage and or birth is to set yourself up for heartache. You may never get married, you may never have children as all these are Allah's mercy and only bestowed upon whom he pleases.

What we often do not take from this teaching, is that the Prophet went to his wife. He did not, fill himself with ego, think he was too manly to seek safety and comfort in the arms of his wife. While we use this teaching to tell women how to be good wives, we must also teach...
