Ya Ilaahi
When
I am alone,
Allah
is my comforter
When
I am nothing,
Allah
is my everything.
When
I am sad and lonely,
Allah
is my song and my joy
When
I am weak and helpless,
Allah
is my strength
Ameen,
Summah Ameen, Ya Rabbul Aalameen.

Behaviour is sometimes
greater than knowledge, because, in life, there are many situations where
knowledge fails, but behaviour can handle everything.

Family is not about
blood. It is about who is willing to hold your hand when you need it the most.

Al Qawwamma
In Islam, the husband has
only one degree of responsibility over the wife. If you were to count all the
rights and duties of the wife in Islam (vis-a-vis the husband), you'll find
that they are absolutely equal in number. Not the same, but equal in number.
And then the ‘father’
has an extra degree of responsibility: it is called in the Quran ‘Al Qawwamma’.
‘Al Qawwamma’ means simply the leader; the leader of the house; the protector;
the maintainer.
Women in general, you
will find that they [have a certain functional expectation of the man/husband
in the household and they] say ‘you're meant to be the leader; you know you are
supposed to lead us; you are the man- you're supposed to protect us; you're not
a man- you're supposed to spend on us’. Even non-Muslim women, in court, we see
all the time, I've seen it, be it Muslim or non-Muslim, their nature [outlook
on duties of the husband/rights of the wife
regarding family maintenance expenditure]...And Allah says: ‘yes, that
is your right’.
So Allah made the man
in that position because Allah knows He created the man to be more befitting
for that position than his wife. Moreover, the man doesn't have other [vital] duties
such as pregnancy, birth-giving, breastfeeding, rearing the child from at least
0 to 8 years of age; the baby needs the mother more than the father. In the meantime,
the responsibility of leadership, protection and maintenance of the family/household
is on the man [husband/father/guardian].
