Like seriously!
yarwa na! there is nothing like hausa-fulani,it's either you hausa or fulani coz they are two different ethnic entities.

If your dad is Hausa and ur mum fulani, you're hausa but just not a full-blooded one and vice-versa.

It's like when a product of a marriage btw hausa and Yoruba claims to be a 'hausa-yoruba',where is the sense in that?


Bottom line is you're either a fulani or hausa!
so,which one are you princess?

WHO AGREES WITH HER?




*THIS WAS ESTABLISHED BY MRS MARTHA DE PURENEZ, WHO DIED AT THE AGE OF 104, AND SHE SPENT 82 YEARS IN MARRIAGE, AND SHE SAID THIS.*



"I know that young ladies will never agree with me, but whoever will implement this shall be the happiest of all and shall make a nice home; unless otherwise."



ITEMS


1. The husband is always right



2. The husband is always the master of the family even if he has no job and NO MONEY



3. The wife must ask for permission from the husband before going to bed if the husband isn't yet in bed, as well as before turning her face away from him on the bed. The husband is still the master and has full control on all the operations even in bed



4. If there is a quarrel with the husband and then a visitor comes, the wife should smile as if nothing happened



5. Anytime the wife thinks she is right in a matter, she should refer herself to Article number 1



6. A good wife must go to bed in her nightdress with no panties or bra, (except during your monthly flow, which he must know about) to allow the husband access to her at any time he feels like (NOTE: *All women should note that this is a man's greatest desire in marriage* - especially if he loves the woman)



7. A woman MUST NEVER refuse her husband's romance expect on the grounds of health and prayers. *Even in such cases she must POLITELY and LOVINGLY explain to him*



8. When the husband is shouting, the wife keeps quiet and that is the time to apologize for whatever has upset him. (NOTE: *Apologizing to him after you have shouted back and insulted him DOES NOT WORK!)*



10. The wife should always seek the husband's permission before making any decision except where he has previously granted you the permission on that particular issue








10. A wife should always excuse the husband to the children if he comes home late.


11. Even on a personal matter a wife waits for her husband with her ideas but must take those of her husband when he is back home


12. The wife must never use work in the day as excuse to deny him at night. Let him be the one to say, "Oh, you must be tired after all the stress of the day!" It is best that way.


13. The wife never goes to sit down in her husband's office unless in an urgent case or an emergency. A good husband too will not come and sit in your office.


14. A good wife does not embark on any kind of expenses without consulting the husband *even if it is your own money*. A good husband too will not control your money.


15. The best way to settle misunderstandings is in the bedroom. If a misunderstanding lingers and he does not make a move in bed, *a good wife should make the move*


16. The wife never refuses to prepare his meals, even if he is refusing to eat due to annoyance. *When he has refused 2 meals, prepare his favorite, with tempting treats*


17. The wife has no orders to give to her husband, but she receives orders from him


18. *The wife must always respect the husband*. Next to freedom of access to his wife's body, this is a man's most important concern


19. The wife has to control her jealousy and never show it in public


20. The good wife pays visits to her parents as well as to her in-laws *only* with the permission of the husband. And under normal circumstances, accompanied by the husband


21. A good wife never entertains guests in her home without the husband's knowledge and consent. *Not even your own relations*.

22. NEVER ENTERTAIN *ANY MALE GUEST* WITHOUT HIS KNOWLEDGE. *Not even his own blood brother* He may not talk or complain about some, but be sure he has counted it against you.


23. The wife *never* goes out anywhere without permission from her husband


*NB:* My dear fellow woman, I want you to know that *THE POWER OF A GOOD WIFE IS IN HER WEAKNESS*. Please, as stupid as this may sound to you, use it and watch your husband become your lover once again. This is my secret recipe for a happy marriage and full control of my home. *I did all the above and I was the one running the home; NOT MY HUSBAND!* His love and respect for me was second to none. And I know that's why God has also granted us long life to enjoy each other the more.

Also forward this to your female friends, *especially the married ones*, this will help them a lot.

There is a question which I want u to put more light to it .

My question is ,

Today on my way back from work I decided to pray solatu ishaa .

There was a man who was laying on the floor inside the mosjid , though the people thought he was sleeping until a man went to woke him up for the solaa .
Subhan Allah
He notice that the man is about to die ,
People were wondering about what has happened to him .
They don't know his father , mother, siblings or any of his relative .
As time goes on the people abandoned the man who was about to die and pray the solaatu ishaa .
My question is was this right or wrong coz later on after the ishaa it was about 5 minutes after they announced to the people to help the man who was about to die .

Pls is this right ?

They are very wrong if your narration is true. Did he later die?. And how did you know he was about to die?. Or he might be sick with stomach bug etc?. Either way, someone in a pain like that needs medical attention and should have been attended to before solat commenced or they should have appointed people to take him to nearby care center while salat is on. They should never abandoned him

After we finish prayer nobody stand up to take him to the hospital . It was later on about five minutes when I leave the mosjid I was hearing the imam saying let's contribute money for this man live .
I don't know if he later died.

this is very bad. You don't wait till after you finished salah to help in an emergency. Seems Imam is not vast in figh.

The solah should not be abandoned for that still. What they could have done is for the imam to appoint some set of people to take care of that while he leads others for solah. Allah knows best
Re: Muslim Singles: Why Are You Not Married? by Empiree: 4:19pm On Jan 15, 2018
Even during salah, if someone collapses, shariah says people next to him (at least 2 people) should break salah and attend to the victim. This is how important life is.

There are instance where in sujud for instance, someone suffers heart attack or at point of death. We may not know bcuz we understand some people stay long in sujud until salah is finish. That's a different case.

But in this case where salah was yet to start, he should have been attended to right away. These things we learned at ile keu. They are parts of basic knowledge of figh.
