Fathering & The Uphill Struggle of My Marriage

Nov 17, 2024 | aboutislam.net | Universiti Putra Malaysia

QAs salamu `alaikum, I'm a father and I feel like I don't like my baby. I feel like rejecting my own baby. I hate crying and disturbance. Also, I can't tolerate a crying baby. I have problems with my wife that really shadow our life together, and I'm thinking of getting married again or divorced. The problem is that she likes to control everything, while I want to share ideas and thoughts. She thinks that I'm a dreamer and unrealistic. Can you please send me some advice? Thank you.
Muslim Men Between Protectiveness & Selfish Jealousy

Nov 12, 2024 | aboutislam.net | Zainab Bint Younus

One of the most incorrectly translated and misunderstood concepts related to social issues is that of gheerah. Commonly translated as ‘jealousy’, the term ‘gheerah’ has unfortunately been used to justify extremely controlling and even abusive behavior from men towards their wives or other women over whom they wield authority. A better translation of gheerah is ‘honorable protectiveness’ rather than jealousy.

Husband Wants to Impose His Arab Culture on Me & My Children

Oct 8, 2024 | aboutislam.net | Universiti Putra Malaysia

QMy husband and I are both Muslims; he by birth while I became a Muslim 6 years ago. The last few years have been rather unhappy for me, but since we have two kids, I try to hold on and show a brave face. My husband keeps his Arab culture very strictly, and he has a terrible temper. For instance, he has threatened to kill my sister, and he denied me contact with my mother for almost 2 years. He has also threatened to kill me, and I really believed he would go through with it.
Blind Faith? Are Muslims Permitted To Use Critical Thinking?

Sep 3, 2024 | aboutislam.net | Ahmed Saad

QPeace be on you! I am a PhD student in Law (Bioethics and Philosophy). Just a question regarding a point in my thesis: Is it true that it is written in Quran - and where - that it is a sin to ask oneself, or God, too many questions? More in the sense of: why? and why? and so on. In fact it is true, that acting like this, you make life much more difficult. Thank you very much for your help. Kind regards. Short Answer:Islam never said that people should stop asking questions or avoid research.
Aromatherapy: Enjoy the Gifts of Nature

Sep 1, 2024 | aboutislam.net | Nadia Ali

A great way to maintain good health and well-being is by using aromatherapy or herbal aromatics to help relax, de-stress, rejuvenate and refresh. Just imagine walking into a room filled with aromatic breezes wafting through the air, the warm ambience of soft-lit candles that add aroma to a room with the homely scent of cinnamon, lavender or even refreshing pine. Subanallaah! I already feel relaxed!Aromatherapy however, is not something new.
Before Choosing Polygamy - Issues to Consider

Jul 30, 2024 | aboutislam.net | Zainab Bint Younus

Polygamy creates an immediate knee-jerk reaction in nearly every individual. Either it’s a noble sunnah meant to protect vulnerable women. Or we decry the many abuses commonly committed within unethically maintained polygamous marriages. Less discussed, however, is practical advice for those Muslim women choosing to undertake polygamy. Women do choose to enter polygamy voluntarily, as first, second, and subsequent wives.
Want to Make Dawah? Show Them You’re Muslim

Jul 21, 2024 | aboutislam.net | Nichola Taylor

When we think about spreading the message of dawah, our thoughts illustrate standing in the street to talk to people about Islam. We imagine answering difficult questions and maybe patiently debating with someone about the ins and outs of our religion. We would love it if a person accepts Islam based on our efforts and how intelligently we answered one of their many questions.

In the previous article, we discovered the eloquence of the Prophet grand-daughter, and her determination to speak the truth.

Zainab Bin’t Ali paused, and then delivered the speech that became famous throughout history for its eloquence, its ferocity, and its passion.
Speaking Truth to Power: Eloquence of Prophet’s Granddaughter

Jul 17, 2024 | aboutislam.net | Zainab Bint Younus

AHL AL-BAYT – the family of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH),–those bound to him by blood and by marriage, those whom he spoke of in his sermon at Khumm:“And the people of my household, I remind you of Allah with regard to the people of my household! I remind you of Allah with regard to the people of my household, I remind you of Allah with regard to the people of my household. “(Muslim)And how can we uphold the rights of Ahl Al-Bayt without knowing who they are?
