NOTES TO REMEMBER

1. The wife herself is responsible for the care of her home and the welfare of the family.
2. The best woman is she, who when her husband sees her, he is pleased and when he directs her she obeys. She protects her husband’s rights and keeps her chastity when he is absent.
3. Nowadays there is a tendency for women to try and struggle for their livelihood in a harsh world in the way men do. The Muslim opinion is that she should be spared from these struggles and worries so that she can give her full attention to the making of a home.
4. The Muslim woman’s job is to make her family’s life sweet and joyful and the home a place of security and peace.
5. “The mother is a school”.
6. In the relationship of man and wife, both are expected to find peace in each others’ company and be bound together not only by the sexual relationship but by love and mercy.
7. The search for knowledge is a duty for every Muslim (Male or Female).
8. One of the aims of acquiring knowledge is that of becoming more conscious of ALLAH (God.)
9. Both men and women should behave modestly in the presence of the opposite sex.
10. The Muslim woman is to give her husband the respect due to the head of the family.
11. The Muslim woman is accorded full spiritual and intellectual equality with men.
12. The Muslim woman keeps her face free of make-up.

To the tune of “RED RIVER VALLEY” except the Bridge, not sure how the RRV bridge goes, but if you have any inkling of how a song goes, you’ll be able to carry it… إن شاء الله

This goes out to all the Brothers who wonder why I’m not interested;
Also your sisters, who try to set me up with you…

I DON’T CARE HOW MUCH MONEY YOU HA-AVE.

I DON’T CARE IF YOU’RE “FI-INE AS WINE…”

I DON’T CARE IF YOU’RE DRIPPING WITH SAU-AUCE.”

IF YOU WANT ME… YOU MUST BE F.O.I.

(verse 2)

I DON’T CARE IF YOU’RE POPE OF THE VATICAN…

I DON’T CARE IF YOU’RE P.O.T.U.SSSSSSS.

I DON’T CARE IF YOU’RE CEO OF THE FORTUNE 500

IF YOU’RE NOT F.O.I. I DON’T CARE

(bridge)

F.O.I., F.O.I.

M.G.T. CAN ONLY MARRY F.O.I.

THERE’S A LITTLE BOOK CALLED MESSAGE TO THE BLACKMAN

READ IT, BELIEVE IT AND PRACTICE IT 

SO YOU CAN BE F.O.I.!!!

Okay, so apparently the person who wrote this song about the Louisiana River Valley, did not know that every Music songwriting class insists that every song has a bridge.

So, I did him/her a favor and at least gave it a tune…

Fill in with my lyrics… 🙂

As-Salaamu ‘Alaikum Beloved and Beautiful Sisters!!!

SPRING IS UPON US. I HAVE NOT NOTICED SO MANY COUPLES DURING THIS TIME OF YEAR SINCE A LONG LONG LONG LONG TIME.

NOT ONLY AM I SEEING MORE COUPLES, BUT THE FLOWERS SEEM TO REACH OUT TO ME. HUMMINGBIRDS COME RIGHT IN FRONT OF MY FACE, LIKE “BAM!!” LOL

I’M LIKE, “OKAY! IT’S SPRING!”

IT’S ALMOST ANNOYING, BUT IT’S SO BEAUTIFUL.

BABIES, COUPLES AND FLOWERS!!!

LOVE IT. THE WEATHER IS WARMING UP. RAIN IS EASING AND IT REALLY FEELS LIKE SUMMER.

BUT I AM NOT GETTING CAUGHT UP!!!

ALLAH IS FIRST.

ISLAM AND PEACE.

I AM NOT LISTENING TO MUSIC. NOR SUCCUMBING TO THE REQUESTS FOR ME TO PERFORM. LISTEN TO THE MESSENGER (PEACE BE UPON HIM).

IN KEEPING WITH MY SAVIOUR’S DAY RESOLUTION, I HAVE FOUND AN ARABIC CLASS AND AL HAMDULILLAH! IT IS ONLY FOR SISTERS!!! AS IT SHOULD BE.

IF YOU ARE LUCKY ENOUGH TO LIVE NEAR ME 🙂 HERE IS THE E-MAIL

“When a Tree starts out healthy, it will eventually lead to a stronger and supportable/supported tree. With a healthy and supportive root system to anchor the tree into the ground, it will be able to stand on it’s own.

It will mature and stand on its own producing healthy and productive fruit.”

– Maulvi Muhammad ‘Ali

As-Salaamu ‘Alaikum Sisters & Brothers!!!
