I can not imagine what a Muslim message board like this would be like.
The webhost do offer a pretty good analogy for why women should not refuse their husbands.
A NOTE FROM LORI TO WIVES:
A little analogy: When you skip a meal or two, you get very hungry. Pretty soon you stop caring much about what or where you eat, just as long as you can get something to eat!
As Muslims, we already know, it is not permissible for a woman to refuse intimacy if her husband request it , rather she is disobeying Allah and His Messenger (by refusing). In al-Saheeh it says: “If a man calls his wife to his bed and she refuses, the One Who is in heaven will be angry with her until morning comes.” Lori’s analogy sure helps put this in perspective!
I don’t anticipate any comments on this post, but just incase, I remind everyone to fear Allah and have good adab.
Nice to see you blogging sister, I know you have a lot to say about a lot of things and your voice is needed.
very nice blog!mary
Thanks Mary! Can you fix your link please?
Have you shared your story/testimony of your conversion to Islam? I would like to read it if it’s on your blog.
I’m a 2nd generation American Muslim. My parents converted in the 60’s.
I meant how you became hardcore, because it doesn’t sound like they are as devout as you.
lol…ooooooooh that’s a whole new blog entry. I’ll try and work on it, but simply put I made a promise in college to God that after I graduated, got a job and a car then I would start looking into the proper way to worship Him.
And here I am…
