shukranlillah

salam. yes the milk supply may hamper but not that much. depends upon ur body and upon ur baby's health. Today the doctor told us that fasting has impacts on ur body... not that much on ur baby's body. He was a child specialist. And if u r very weak and very thirsty while feeding the baby, then upon ur serious weakness u can break the fast for that that day. or u can fast a day and have a break of 1 day or u can fast 2 days and have a break of 1 day or u can fast 3 days and have a break of 1 day etc u shud give fidya for the days u had the break time. Fidya for 1 day which u was not fasting for ur pregnancy/breasfeding = 750gr of ur staple food (rice, wheet, oat.. depends upon ur country.) u shud give the food or the money and be sure that they will buy ONLY FOOD with ur fidya money. Happy fasting inshaAllah. :) kh

salam. I heard that Abul Ala Mowdudi, the founder of Jamayate Islami in pakistan was not against Islamic Revolution in Iran. He was in support of the revolution. So what is the truth? I need documents/references also. Please.. any links? TC kh fee amanillah

thanks

salam. The big part is Ruhullah. Whats there underneath? Thank you.

Our belief is the life of baby starts at implantation. So I asked doctor about the time interval between conception and implantation. She said it varies.. from 2-3 days to 4-5 days.

Sura Naml(27): 62 this is the verse

Salaam. You must know that a wife is not always for all types of discussions that you need. If both have common topics then "noorun ala noor". But not everyone gets this "noorun ala noor" thing. So accept the reality. Just be happy with the only 'noor'. :) Be proud of her simplicity. Her simplicity is a beauty itself. :) And why u don't find interest at medical related issues? If u bring this topic than may be its easier for her to talk. May be she can not quote philosophical quotes.... but may be she understands those. So just talk to her and throw ur ideas... on the end of the year u get ur philosopher wife inshaAllah. LOL like me. My husband studies philosophy and of course no related to me. I am so simple-headed person. See my activities at virtual world. I never join to any thread of "The Thinker's Discourse" forum. Politics etc is also boring for me. And u know what? I can not feel like join to any off-topic forum or any fun post also. Myyy problem. Though I join various type of virtual discussions but my offline life is different. Simply simple-headed. Philosophy n Theology etc are not for all and a bit 'different thing'. I must say 'difficult' also. So this 2+ years I just listend to my hubby. Now, I can 'quote' also. :) He always tries to throw new ideas. Even if I do not always join to his discussions.. I know what he talks about.. and sometimes I know what he is going to conclude and now ppl say that I am influenced by his-type-ideas. See it works. Personality sometimes transfers. Or I shud say: rebuilding of personality happens when u can influence others. Lets see how successful u are! :) I watched a lecture of an Ayatullah today. He was talking on family and children issues. He said if u have baby then say Alhamdulillah for it is a Amanat from Allah. If you do not have baby then also say Alhamdulillah. u dont have to look after an Amanat. If u have abnormal or sick baby say Alhamdulillah. This baby is also an Amanat from Allah. Allah gives different types of amanat to different types of people. That's His choice. Learn to view from this angel rather than complaining like: why Allah didnt give me son? or why abnormal child? or why no child? etc. Try to be happy with what Allah has destined for you. InshaAllah this lecture helps u. And another thing. Before my hubby was married, he did seek advice from this same Ayatullah about marriage. The advice of Ayatullah was like a key to a successful marriage. He said: **Open ur eyes before marriage and then after marriage close ur eyes.** You have to judge all qualities of that girl before marriage. But after marriage just close ur eyes.. don't look for or look at her faults. Consider her faults as a fault of urself. Deal with her problem as if the problem is urs. Solve her problem as if it is ur problem. If ur problem is not being solved or not solvable... then what u do with urself? Do it for her also. Then u will be lucky to have a successful marriage. And Look at your own story from a different angel. Try to view this story from ur wife's angel. She is now quite happy with you. Don't ruin it.. Be her happiness... be her trust... be her entertainment. Feeling the feelings of her can lessen your boredom inshaAllah. Two cents from my simple brain. Khoda Hafez

^ addition: http://www.al-islam.org/modestdress/ Salam. Children not necessarily need to know all the philosophies behind. But a summary should be given to make her proud of it. Do u n ur daughter pray together? If u do then tell her this is the same reason why we do hijab, that is to please Allah. Iman, Wilayat, Namaz, Roza, not to eat haram foods, not to steal.... everything is wajib for us... for the same reason. This shud be made clear. Then there are detail philosophies and explanations of Iman or Imamat or Hijab or Roza etc.... u shud also tell her those explanations. But at first kids shud be prepared like: Allah says to do it..so we must do it. No exception. These r obligatory and we cannot miss these. We ourselves should obey first. Then it leads them automatically to follow the path. We should befriend with religious families. That will make kids friendly about hijab and religion. And dont forget to manage her matching colorful scarfs with dresses and may be that will make her feel ok. Make a hijab-starting party at home with friends and families. And give her hijab gifts. (In iran the schools give a party for all nine yrs old girls where they got gifts of new hijab and accessories of namaz. The kids seems proud to join that special party. They sing special songs together.) You can also write a song for ur daughter or manage a composer who will compose a song for you with these lines: from now on we will also talk to God, we r now all angels.. etc..... or songs like from now on angels are always with us, we r now big kids.... mom gave us special prayer mat and prayer scarf... we have our own tasbih beeds and sijdagah/turba.... we started to follow the best lady Zahra (sa)... or like i am a muslim... my hijab is my identity... my namaz is my identity... I am proud of my muslim name.... etc etc Manage various hijabi kids' pictures and make big posters and hang those in her room. Manage various hijabi cartoon pictures, stickers. Fee Amanillah.
