"This (Quran) is a Message for
mankind (and a clear proof against them), in order that they may be
warned thereby, and that they may know that He is the only One Ilah (God
- Allah) - (none has the right to be worshipped but Allah), and that
men of understanding may take heed. " (Surah Ibrahim 52)
Many individuals have taken the role of being "the power-hungry feminist" , who will do just about ANYTHING just to TRY to climb their way up in the social corporate ladder. Their natural inclinations as a nurturing, nourishing, modest woman becomes distorted and deviated by the pressures of society. Brainwashing them into thinking that they are born to be the "breadwinner" and to abandon their duties as a housewife and a mother. All you see in today's society are daughters, mothers, sisters, aunt's who are selling their bodies in one way or another, just to earn status and honour. But what is honour to the Western woman? Honour, would be considered as; that degrading remark made by that strange man in his lime green Lamborghini at the stop light. Or her co-workers telling her how beautiful she looks in her pencil skirt and tight blouse. She feels empowered when she gets a dozen "likes" on Facebook because of her "outfit of the day", and how about that television producer asking her to remove her inner innocence and "let loose for the camera"? Or the photographer telling her to pose "sexy" for the camera? Is the liberation found in the drug addict who abandoned her children and ends up living on the side of THAT alley way? Or what about that stripper, the prostitute (who happens to be someone's DAUGHTER, MOTHER, SISTER)...what about them? Are they liberated? Are these women truly honoured ? Are they deserving their rights as a woman? The woman who works twice as hard as the man, but get paid equal or lower than him....is that fair "justice"? Those feminists who protest with their top off like animals, are they really really liberated? Does exposing your private parts and dressing half naked REALLY mean that you are liberated?
IS this truly honour? Or is that TRUE degradation and oppression?
HMMM....I think even a grade 5 student would be able to tell you the answer. NO.
Surely, one could say "well not ALL Western women think this is honour!" and right, this is true. But how about then those women who give up their entire life to study years on end just to become a high paying professional? She sacrifices everything JUST to earn the big bucks and attempt to over take the role of men! She strives for a six figure salary when she won't even have time to enjoy the money she gets paid because she is too stressed worrying about her job. Majority of her hours are spent at work and if not at work she brings her work home and never spends time with her family. She eats, sleeps, breathes work resulting in her husband cheating on her, or her cheating on him, and their neglected children end up prowling around nightclubs and bars posting crude photo's of their lifestyle all online. Their children use their parent's money to waste on extravagant things and even go as low to become recreational drug users! What kind of lifestyle is this? The women are the foundation of a successful household. If she is corrupt, than the entire home falters. This is not an opinion, but merely a fact.
Think about this for one minute, even the worst of rulers and oppressors, had mothers. The best of men, the worst of men, all had mothers. How they raised their son's, only Allah, The Almighty, knows, but one thing is apparent, and that is, children need constant nurturing, care, and attention in order to become successful individuals with good values, moral uprightness and a sound mind. The mother and the father are the prime example of who their children look up to. They are supposed to be the leaders, setting examples that are supposed to be followed and then carried on to the next generation. Even animals, Subhana'Allah, have a natural responsibility to take care of their offspring at a young age teaching them how to hunt, feeding them, and providing for them. This is the fitrah of an animal who doesn't even have any kind of intellect compared to the human being. So what does that tell us? Obviously much is lacking in the households of today's society, and lack of morals are prevalent in many fathers and mothers. Many parents let the television raise their children and the sitcoms and music videos become the teachers of the future. Without a doubt, the Shaitan is hard at work and using every single tool he can to outsmart, outcast, and outwin the human race. He has started with one of the most sacred and innocent attribute of man, and that is, modesty. Modesty has been stripped from every man and woman in the Western world.
Shaitan has used his tools to brainwash these women to thinking that they are only NOBLE and HONOURABLE if they show as MUCH SKIN as possible. The slimmer you are, the bigger your (fake) breasts are, and the more makeup you have on is the more successful you are- SUBHANA'ALLAH?!!!!!! What has happened to this society? It is not only in the West, but it is even sweeping the world as far as SAUDI?!!!!!!!!!!! ASTUGHFURALLAH 'ATHEEM. You see certain so-called "princesses" wearing tight fitting clothes that are classified as "classy and modest" yet look at their faces?!?!?!? All ADORNED with makeup and no hijab, following her master around like some puppet?! Advocating for women's rights and liberation in Saudi!?? What kind of rights are we looking at here? The same ones that all the kafir countries adopt? SUBHANA'ALLAH. Saudi is the only country that is somewhat being preserved for their Islam, and look at the substance that we have representing the women...representing ISLAM?!?!?!?!!!!!!!? I cry out in sadness and anger, this really breaks my heart. The dunya was all I EVER chased before I converted to Islam!!!!?? Why are these born Muslims trying to chase what their fitrah is AGAINST?!! I know many reverts feel my struggle and my pain because I know many of us have been there-done that, and we realised the beautiful guidance and true beauty of Islam...Sisters, I am with you!!
I really don't understand the obsession that all these Saudi or Middle Eastern women have with leaving off their hijab and adopting fashion of the Western culture?! They are so brainwashed with KAFIRS telling them that they are oppressed and Subhana'Allah they actually believe it? They forget about who Allah is and the word "modesty" and "hijab" have left their vocabulary. Their role as a mother, daughter, sister, Muslimah, have been neglected and abandoned. This is the sad truth of what society has become. The Muslimah who should be PROUD of her role as a mother, daughter, sister; the muslimah who should be proud of her MODESTY, her CHASTITY, HER PURITY is no longer proud of what Allah has blessed her with. She has left it all for the worldly life and has taken on the role of the true oppressed woman of the Wild, Wild, West.
THESE ARE THE TRUE WOMEN OF ISLAM!
Anas reports that the Messenger of Allah (peace
and blessings be upon him), said: 'The best women of mankind are four:
Mariam daughter of 'Imran, Assiya wife of Pharaoh, Khadijah daughter of
Khuwailid, and Fatima the daughter of the Messenger of Allah.' [Bukhari and Muslim]
How many princesses, mothers, daughters, sisters, and aunts are striving to be like these women? Instead they aim to be like the British royal family or the next selina gomez (is that how you spell her name? I really don't know lol) and miley cyrus (*gag* who are plagues to society!) ..what is the problem my dear sisters with trying to follow the footsteps of our beloved mother of believers? IS it really THAT difficult to maintain piety and truthfulness and honour ?? Is it really that embarrassing to adopt PROPER MODESTY and cover your beauty for your husband only? If your money is so "sacred" that you need to put it into a wallet or a purse than why would you even flail your beauty and private parts around the streets like you are some free bank offering your goods for a lowly cheap price? Please dear sisters, reflect upon the this for it is the truth and nobody will tell it to you like it is in this busy busy temporary materialistic world that we live in. Please take a moment and reflect, and repent and return to your Lord.
Let me remind you about what Islam says about the modest, pious woman who is granted Jannah; she is not the one who is beautifying herself all over the internet and in public for random strangers nor is she the one who curses and slanders with her dirty, rotten mouth, she definitely is not the one who puts beauty before her Lord, nor is she the one who advocates everything AGAINST the Sunnah of Muhammad (sallalahu aleyhi wasslem- check also my post on the 10 invalidators of Islam). The true woman of Jannah is the one who is the best of mothers, the most supportive of wives, and the most obedient of daughters. The woman of Jannah strives to please her Lord and knows that she was created differently from men and she knows that men and women have their own separate roles. She knows that Allah rewards the righteous slave EQUALLY with reward, and that He is Most Just. She does not go against her fitrah and corrupts her modesty and her role as a mother, wife, a Muslim woman. The woman of Jannah is pure, clean, with a heart and soul that is white and full of light and love for the Qur'an and for Her Lord! Remember sisters, if you follow the dunya and really believe that your beauty will bring you to Jannah, just remember, you are nowhere near the Hoor Al-Ein, so relax a little and loosen up your tight shirt and your tight hijab. The Angel will not care how you smell in your grave or what designer makeup brand or purse you wore while you were in this dunya, in fact, this will ALL BE HELD AGAINST YOU. So think twice before you exit your home. Allah IS ALL KNOWING, ALL SEEING, ALL HEARING !!!! FEAR ALLAH !!
You want to be a REAL WOMAN? You want to be the real true woman of Jannah? No feminist, power-hungry, oppressed woman could EVER compare to what I am about to share with you all, this is the TRUE woman of Jannah; this is what we should all be striving for:
And if you ask about their brides and wives, then they are young and full-breasted and have had the liquid of youth flow through their limbs; the Sun runs along the beauty of her face if she shows it, light shines from between her teeth if she smiles; if you meet her love, then say whatever you want regarding the joining of two lights; he sees his face in the roundness of her cheek as if he is looking into a polished mirror, and he sees the brightness from behind her muscles and bones; if she were to be unleashed upon the World, she would fill what is between the Heavens and the Earth with a beautiful wind, and the mouths of the creation would glorifiy, praise, and exclaim greatness, and everything between the East and the West would be adorned for her, and every eye would be shut from everthing but her, and the light of the Sun would be outshone just as the light of the Sun outshines the light of the stars, and everyone on the face of the Earth would believe in the Ever-Living,
the One who Sustains and Protects all the exists.And the covering on her head is better than the World and all that is in it, and she does not increase with age except in beauty; free from an umbilical cord, childbirth and menses, and pure of mucous, saliva, urine and other filthy things; her youth never fades, her clothing is never worn out, no garment can be created that matches her beauty, and no one who is with her can ever become bored;
her attention is restricted to her husband, so she desires none but him, just as his attention is restricted to her so she is the sole object of his desire,
and he is with her in utmost safety and security, as none has touched her before of either humans or Jinn.

So, in closing, I just wanted to share some extremely crucial reminders for us all from The Noble Qur'an, after these verses, do you REALLY REALLY REALLY want to imitate the kafirs and take them as your idols and role models?
"Consider not that Allah is
unaware of that which the Zalimun (polytheists, wrong-doers, etc.) do,
but He gives them respite up to a Day when the eyes will stare in
horror.
(They will be) hastening
forward with necks outstretched, their heads raised up (towards the
sky), their gaze returning not towards them and their hearts empty (from
thinking because of extreme fear).
And warn (O Muhammad SAW)
mankind of the Day when the torment will come unto them; then the
wrong-doers will say: "Our Lord! Respite us for a little while, we will
answer Your Call and follow the Messengers!" (It will be said): "Had you
not sworn aforetime that you would not leave (the world for the
Hereafter)." (Surah Ibrahim 42-44)
"And you will see the Mujrimun (criminals, disbelievers in the Oneness of Allah Islamic Monotheism, polytheists, disobedient to Allah, etc.) that Day bound together in fetters; [Muqarranun in fetters; mean:- with their hands and feet tied to their necks with chains.] Their garments will be of pitch, and fire will cover their faces. That Allah may requite each person according to what he has earned. Truly, Allah is Swift at reckoning. ( Surah Ibrahim 49-51)
See sisters, the EXTREME punishment that the kafirs, the wrongdoers, and the hypocrites will experience on THE Day???? Will you like to follow in these very same footsteps which you are trying to strive for in this dunya (naudhubillah) !!??? Please, let these verses stick in your mind and let them remind you if you truly want to follow the kafirs and their lifestyles...May Allah guide us all and keep us steadfast and upright with our beautiful deen al-Islam, may He give us tawfeeq to turn to Him in humility and shame and may He forgive us our sins . Ameen !!!!
