ANSWER:

He has no right in asking you to work. Allah has given this responsibility solely to men just as it is your duty to look after the house, your husband and kids. If you don’t have kids from him, he doesn’t seem to be man enough to stay with and you might be better off without him! 

My husband earns —– dollars a month and says I need to work too. If I don’t work he doesn’t want me in his life. I need to study to work and he does not provide for me. I have to get money from the social office. What can I do?

is it considered as fardh for a mother to do any work related to the kids- for example taking them to the doctor appointment. I stay at home n I homeschool my daughter n take care of the house n my toddler. Is it a must for me to outside work for them too? My husband said he cannot take time off for these as he has booked all his vacation for family visit abroad.

my sister has been married for 10 years & has 2 kids. Her Husband has anger management issues and gets angry over small things like kids taking most of my sister’s attention or food not being cooked on time. He beats her if she explains. Slaps, pushes are norm now. Her body as well as soul is bruised. She still wants to be with him. But wants to deal with his anger. What to do?
