If you want to listen to it, it's in the first five minutes of "111 - Lahab pt 2". http://podcast.bayyinah.com/category/juz_amma/page/2/ Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15693657732538829527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5398611943115596793.post-45101660441512440602017-04-27T13:21:27.849+01:002017-04-27T13:21:27.849+01:00Dear sister Umm Salihah,
I've been pondering ...Dear sister Umm Salihah,<br /><br />I've been pondering what to comment on this post for some while because it is such a important but touchy subject. I do recognise your points but I wonder what would be our best response, in line of the example of Rasul Allah (saws)? What would he do? Not get drawn in argument, and brush off harsh remarks or being made fun off? Should we respond to this or should we let it slide of our shoulders, have sabr and let Allah deal with it? <br /><br />I certainly struggle with this myself too, especially when you're treated differently because you are more 'conservative' in practicing our faith. Ironically, I myself as a converted muslim, who can't be mistaken for an Arab or someone from the Middle East as I have very light skin and blue eyes, are usually looked upon with awe by other muslims, even though I dress quite conservatively (some might say extreme). But my sisters-in-law, especially the one who wears niqab, do get questions about the way they dress and are being said they should tone it down a bit. And mind you, this is in Tunisia. My sister-in-law with niqab faced a lot of negative remarks from people she knows well when she started wearing it, with even one woman trying to tear it off her head.

Why is it any of his business if someone was eating openly during Ramadan: and if he is "disbelieving", why is that a problem? Maybe he decided he didn't believe in Islam anymore. Maybe he was feeling ill on the day. In any case it was none of your husband's business, unless he was threatening him that disbelief would have consequences.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
