We would like to invite you to the following:
Islamic Circles Presents
MUSLIMAH DILEMMA - MEN FROM MARS, WOMEN FROM VENUS
with Sister Umm Abdillah and others
Date: Sunday 22nd May 2005
Time: 11am - 1pm
Venue: Froud Centre, 1 Toronto Avenue, Manor Park, London, E12 5JF
Muslim women face a variety of dilemmas. One of the biggest problems
is concerning marriage. Divorce rates amongst Muslims are increasing
with the numbers of sisters requesting khula' (divorce) rising at a
unprecedented rate. Brothers often claim that sisters are too
demanding or disobedient. How much truth is there in all this?
Maybe you have mastered the Fiqh (jurisprudence) of marriage, or
are a active da'iya but are still finding it hard to get married.
Can't cook, won't cook, and don't have to cook! Are we taking our
contemporary understanding of Hanafi fiqh a tad too far perhaps?!
"Muslim men nowadays cannot meet my expectations so I will keep
on searching for Mr Right."
Or are you married but finding it difficult to deal with issues
such as in-laws? His mum or me? My husband has changed after
marriage. I am a bored housewife. Do you really know the reality
of Muslim men brought up in the UK or are you kidding yourself
that he will change because of you?
Who can help you? What can you do? And are you really bothered?
Join this special discussion, sharing your views and experiences
amongst sisters of all ages and cultures. Get some common-sense
answers which are not always found on Islamic websites, in books
or from male scholars, but through the sound experiences of women
who have faced these problems and strived to overcome them.
* This event is for sisters only - all sisters welcome
* Light continental breakfast will be provided, insha'Allah
