we need you guys inshallah tell us what you think a man looks for in a wife i want you guys to
00:01:20.140

00:01:24.940

00:01:29.980
so the topic you can start whenever you're ready you can start now pick somebody who's going to take
00:01:33.240
the notes out okay let's just brainstorm what men want in women okay um so who wants to go first
00:01:38.900
i mean anyone can say okay i'll just say what i said before um what i think men want
00:01:47.040
women want men what men want okay well i think what men want in a woman is uh just her presence
00:01:56.160
her presence alone is healing her presence alone is is what nurtures a man to be a real man that's
00:02:06.060
that's what i believe anyway because if you really think about it men have i'm not saying that men have
00:02:11.200
a harder job but being the providers and the being the provider and the protector the world is harsh
00:02:17.420
um and if the world is harsh you want to come home to someone who is going to is going to re-energize
00:02:25.780
you again before you go back into the world so i think uh what men want is a nice uh kind caring
00:02:35.580
nurturing uh woman who nurtures the good things about them uh that's what i think what do you guys
00:02:44.080
think yeah i think there's i think it's the same kindness and even if you look in the quran that is
00:02:49.660
one one of the rights of the man when it comes to marriage is that the the peace and the kindness
00:02:55.560
and the tranquility is from the woman and in in return we we give the respect and you know when the
00:03:02.200
man is kind to us and treats us good giving respect and all of those other things and like you touched
00:03:06.700
upon the security and providing if the woman is not feminine it makes the man become you know like
00:03:15.800
it's like it's like it's like let's say if a woman is like let's say a woman for example a woman who's
00:03:22.320
hyper independent um and who's struggling to let down her guard because a lot of people we talk about
00:03:28.040
hyper independent women and say oh she's she just wants to have a career and she wants this and
00:03:33.140
she wants that we fail to realize there's a there's a huge like there's a huge barrier which is the fact
00:03:39.820
that she might have some sort of like trauma like in in the sense that a man whether that's her brother
00:03:45.060
her father or a previous marriage whatever the case may be has let her down and she felt like i'm not
00:03:51.400
safe in this world i need to provide for myself so there's a lot of trauma there's a lot of trauma
00:03:56.420
behind it i'm not safe in this world so i need to become hyper independent she's in her survival
00:04:01.860
state when a woman's in like um when a woman is in her hyper independent state she's in a survival
00:04:08.580
state she needs to survive so let's say a woman who's hyper independent comes with a man who's also
00:04:14.680
like let's say masculine it's two like kind of masculine energies clashing and it's just it's not
00:04:22.460
gonna work out obviously um but i don't really know what i was going with that point but yeah
00:04:27.400
i'm writing your points down you know what i'm saying just kindness again attraction i'm gonna
00:04:32.440
touch upon attraction i would say attraction is vital i mean a lot of people don't like to accept it but
00:04:39.620
you know and then want to fuss and moan about why women got makeup and stuff if the woman doesn't
00:04:45.480
look attractive the man's not gonna be interested yeah one thing i've noticed anyway but um one thing
00:04:51.140
i've noticed with men is um they want a woman who looks after her physical appearance 100 she looks
00:04:58.360
good even when you're 10 years into marriage and that's one thing men really like because it's
00:05:04.840
ego yeah and they like they like the visuals about what girls you're everything you're beautiful
00:05:10.920
exactly everything's attraction especially like just you as like just because no you're right you
00:05:16.720
know if you if you guys are right if you think about it men are obviously very visual creatures
00:05:22.120
whereas whereas women we were more mentally stimulated like we we if a man is intelligent and
00:05:28.760
masculine and like we we get stimulated mentally and that's what makes us attracted to men obviously
00:05:35.640
physical looks is also very important for women as well but yeah not so much i think not so much as
00:05:40.420
we can compromise on that no no you're right we can compromise on that but for men it definitely
00:05:48.620
is visual creatures because that's that's yeah and you know what it's so true bismillah there was a
00:05:55.280
sister that was looking for marriage she's she's like maybe now probably in her 40s she's still not
00:05:59.980
married by the way and i remember one day me and my sisters were sitting with her and
00:06:04.300
this sister did not make an effort okay physically i'm not throwing shade i'm just saying okay if i
00:06:11.700
was a guy yeah i wouldn't find it attractive and that's the god's honesty if i seen her i wouldn't
00:06:17.500
think oh god yes beautiful i want to go for this yeah do you know what i mean yeah and it doesn't mean
00:06:23.200
you have to have a plaque of makeup on or whatever just cream your face yeah just cream your face
00:06:30.120
you know don't look at you take care of your jill babe whatever you got on look good iron your clothes
00:06:35.940
yeah i think it's the sense of effort that's more attractive than the actual end result because
00:06:41.780
sometimes you know we all have different levels of beauty and beauty is actually in the eyes of the
00:06:46.580
and we might consider a sister to not be that attractive yeah because of what our you know
00:06:53.100
competition is between females but for a male she might be really attractive and i always say that
00:07:00.020
being attractive and being pretty are two separate things like there are people that are attractive
00:07:06.380
but when you actually sit down and think about the actual makeup of their face they're not good
00:07:11.960
looking yeah but they have an aura they have a sense of pride and that's the that gives you the
00:07:18.580
illusion or gives men the illusion that it's attractive for example you have a lot of sisters that
00:07:23.140
you know maybe go to the gym spend time moisturizing oh i've got to you know new perfume etc
00:07:29.740
because it's the idea that she's taking care of herself that makes her attractive yeah exactly she
00:07:36.120
might be less attractive or pretty because i define those as two different things
00:07:40.620
than you know the next sister that he sees on the street but maybe that next sister doesn't look
00:07:47.560
like she looks after herself so in his mind he doesn't have the top prize he doesn't have the prize
00:07:54.180
yeah because the best things are looked after so it's true it's also a play on psychology as well
00:08:00.880
you know um and i think that's part of when you say i want a good looking or attractive a woman
00:08:07.940
they are two separate things and some men want actual beauty in terms of you know from allah like
00:08:14.740
natural and you know and that could be you know some some men prefer the no makeup yeah and that's
00:08:21.580
the beauty you know and others actually need makeup and they don't mind because they just want
00:08:26.700
something that looks beautiful and so you know essentially that attract what they're actually
00:08:30.980
attracted to is the feminine femininity of the woman so i just wanted to quickly land that in
00:08:35.360
because what you said it comes out in different ways yes do you understand but in actual fact
00:08:40.120
if women are beautifying their self creaming their skin taking care of their self being in a real
00:08:44.580
feminine energy that comes out beautiful where regardless yeah you become attractive regardless
00:08:49.560
you say natural to a woman as well yeah we want to look good but if you're wearing you know men
00:08:54.560
clothes and you're you're raggedy and you're you know you've got this big and you don't brush your hair
00:08:58.920
for like a week you've got this like really bad you know um attitude yeah that's not that's because
00:09:06.240
you're not in your feminine you know and the man's not going to find that attractive of course he sees
00:09:10.020
that as a competitor actually you know it's in the nature to like pick out a woman who's feminine and
00:09:16.060
who's taking care of us taking care of herself but i was going to say to add to what you were saying
00:09:20.260
um um you know when a woman takes care of herself like for a man it's it's like it's like oh she's
00:09:28.900
taking care of herself to look good for me yes for me and it's kind of like yeah you know you know
00:09:35.660
obviously you are individual people but sometimes you know when you're in a relationship for a really
00:09:41.100
long time like you're married for a really you do end up start to end up seeing that person as an
00:09:45.460
extension of yourself um and because you see them as an extension of yourself you you do you you when
00:09:53.040
they look good you're like yeah like that's my wife my wife looks good yeah you know there's also
00:09:58.440
a sense of selfishness on the male part it's to do with their ego is what do you mean by that in term
00:10:04.360
it means that for example if you're making him if you're looking good you'll make you're like you
00:10:10.260
said you're reflecting on him and you're making so it makes him so his status amongst his peers
00:10:15.600
rises yeah because it's it's like he's got the prize you know so it's it's also a status thing
00:10:23.200
and that's what i mean by ego you know it's the same for women when if you know we want to protect
00:10:28.240
and provide you know sometimes i mean i guess you could explicitly say we want someone that is doing
00:10:34.700
well financially that's also a sense of prize amongst women and that's why we compete for
00:10:40.200
for that yeah generally you know we want that provider i'm not saying he has to be rich i'm just
00:10:45.060
saying the provider factor is a competition yeah you know and that's the equivalent for males i think
00:10:50.860
it's the looking after but i was because you're looking for the ultimate provider
00:10:55.800
i was gonna i wouldn't say i wouldn't say i wouldn't say it's a competition okay because
00:11:03.420
i i would want best for my sisters i wouldn't compete with them no but that's really that's
00:11:09.580
really honorable yeah sisters we don't compete with each other we wouldn't i'm talking about
00:11:15.180
everyone as well everyone in general as well because obviously we're here to like a build a
00:11:21.480
like a great umma and if we're going to compete with each other then like we're going to clash
00:11:26.320
you are your own competition but the reality is there is a competition and you're right and
00:11:31.720
it's like the survival of the fittest amongst the mating world it's like even animals do it and
00:11:37.580
other creatures and it's just innately in us it's like it's like even if you went to an all-female
00:11:43.800
event like a wedding or something each sister will dress up in the best way possible and it's not
00:11:50.240
necessarily because she's competing for a man they're competing amongst one another innately even
00:11:56.720
if it's not deliberate to look good you know like they have a have a beauty and that's where you know
00:12:04.420
where there are sisters for example that are you know okay and accepting of polygamy for example
00:12:11.000
if you're number three or number four you don't mind number one and number two and you see it as
00:12:17.160
you are competing it's like a competitive position to be in you know and why is that maybe the man
00:12:23.400
has something so great to offer obviously it has to be a provider and that's what it comes down to it
00:12:28.420
comes down to you sorry don't you say i i get what you're saying and i think there's a lot of truth
00:12:33.260
to what you're saying because if i really think about it sometimes you know let's say you're getting
00:12:36.500
dressed you're like i want to look the best today so i know what you're saying there's there's a lot
00:12:40.180
of truth to it but i think it can like become a little bit toxic if if we um if we start like if
00:12:48.300
you have that mindset of okay i want to look the best but like but you can't look the best and like
00:12:52.720
i agree but the reality is they're all but it's just i think but i think it comes down to the
00:12:58.600
individual and it's honestly very honorable and it's really good you know for us to be able to look
00:13:03.360
into that and say hang on there's no competition here yeah of course we are all you know beautiful
00:13:08.420
in a different way but there are there are people that are competing yeah but i think personally for
00:13:13.960
me like okay i want to look really good i want to be yourself for myself good but then when i see
00:13:18.620
all the women i think oh my god you look amazing as well and you look amazing let me just add i don't
00:13:23.620
think that what you're talking about it's something you yourself personally yeah yeah that's true
00:13:30.100
and it's an amazing place to be because by default us women we don't come like that
00:13:36.260
okay we are envious and jealous by default i've never experienced that but but i'm exactly like
00:13:43.240
you i can see a sister and be like mashallah you're so stunning like you look good but i won't be like
00:13:47.760
that takes practice and educating yourself and humbling yourself but by default if the woman hasn't
00:13:54.220
got emotional intelligence yeah she's going to be jealous she's going to be envious we see in the
00:13:59.940
we see examples of it in the prophet's words so it's addy no i agree like it is in our nature but
00:14:06.020
i guess for the women um out there who do experience that it's a natural emotion to feel don't feel guilty
00:14:12.560
about it but i do want to say like okay i'll give you like a tip to help you like mentally if you do
00:14:18.920
see a woman who looks really good and you do feel a little envious it's okay but you just tell
00:14:25.200
yourself but i also look good like like you should tell you you should tell yourself that maybe no i
00:14:29.840
feel like i feel like it's this idea of um i used to compare myself a lot when i was younger to be
00:14:36.240
honest yeah and of course it's when you're like super insecure yeah um we've all gone through that
00:14:41.420
stage i'm sure all of us have um but how i see it anyway is everyone is on their own journey
00:14:47.040
you don't know what their story was in order to get to who like who they are right now exactly so be
00:14:52.840
happy for their success and just focus on you and that mindset has changed me like i i am happy for
00:15:00.180
whoever their success is um but my focus is always improving i am my own competition yeah yeah 100%
00:15:06.480
so if i'm if i'm trying to improve myself i look at okay i look in myself and i look inwards
00:15:12.040
how do i improve myself yeah inwards yeah um that's how i like to see yeah yeah so okay someone
00:15:18.520
attractive not necessarily someone someone who basically attracted kind kind okay i wrote it
00:15:26.680
down nurturing and feminine we said um a woman in her real feminine energy so she's soft nurturing caring
00:15:34.320
kind um speaking to the mic one number one thing i separated was peace men want peace peace
00:15:41.780
um a woman's beauty someone who takes care of herself she dresses up can i add a key one
00:15:46.820
yeah no one really talks about and it is fertility men are looking for a fertile woman even if they
00:15:54.760
don't know it that is what they're looking for yes in their nature all those other things we're
00:15:58.240
mentioning attraction all these other things they actually look at a woman because i actually was
00:16:02.960
watching a show about the shape of women as well the shape of women men would look at the shape of a
00:16:08.160
woman and say okay she can bear my children she can carry good children she's okay yeah yeah yeah
00:16:12.920
yeah like they don't even realize they're doing it themselves they look at a woman and say okay
00:16:17.040
she's looks like she can carry children she looks fertile it's the main because you remember by default
00:16:23.200
allah's created them to procreate we're supposed to be procreating we're supposed to to get together
00:16:27.700
and make children so ultimately he's looking for a fertile woman a lot of people don't discuss it
00:16:32.460
they don't talk about it fertility is important for men okay and we don't talk about it because
00:16:38.240
it's the women who carry the baby and we're the ones that are pregnant but the man is the one that
00:16:42.340
gives us the child yeah so he's essentially looking for a woman is she going to be a mother
00:16:46.680
can she you know bring her home together so fertility is definitely on the list for me
00:16:53.720
one of the important things that people just completely miss for men okay what else guys
00:16:58.420
what else i would say oh sorry um i would say um a man wants um a woman to listen like as in like
00:17:08.800
if he has if he's had a wife not like not like i would i would definitely sit to my husband because
00:17:14.980
if he if he if he's had like a like a bad day at work or if he just wants to vent like understanding
00:17:20.980
yeah just yeah understanding and a good listener like i would i would do that for him yeah i get what
00:17:25.560
she's saying like let's say um when you say listening i think she she's basically saying
00:17:31.100
is she she wants to feel heard like because usually if you think about a masculine man
00:17:36.660
in the real world they're very stoic you can't really show much of your emotions you have to like
00:17:41.880
withhold a lot but then when a man is in the presence of his wife he becomes like a child like
00:17:47.920
he becomes like a child and uh he becomes like his he he can be himself uh and he can only be himself
00:17:55.520
is if that woman holds space for uh for him to be able to be his be himself and she's understanding
00:18:04.600
and she actually listens to him like listens to what he has to say and um can i add something on
00:18:11.160
yeah go on yeah so when i when i say like a good listener because i know that men they tend to not
00:18:18.280
talk about the feelings and they they're a bit cold with that so me being a good listener showing
00:18:26.120
empathy towards him uh would allow him to slowly break down his like new in the patriarchy how it
00:18:33.100
being vulnerable yeah now we're going on to something that i think it's a cycle
00:18:37.800
the men aren't going to agree with you like i don't think they want that in a woman no but it's
00:18:42.200
it's my opinion no they want to be vulnerable but what you're saying is it's very conflicting it's
00:18:48.560
like okay you want to be vulnerable don't say it sis no that only happens with your wife because with
00:18:52.840
with the prophet peace be upon him khadijah radiallahu anha she she was so close to the prophet peace
00:18:59.240
before him and he he would express his feelings to her like he was exactly so a man being stoic is is
00:19:06.920
not as like a i don't see it as like a really positive thing i mean i think it's a good thing
00:19:11.760
there's nothing wrong stoicism is a good character you could be there's the half and half you can't
00:19:15.840
be fully stoic no but it depends your context yeah yeah because it depends on your context i think it's
00:19:21.380
really important for a man to be stoic because for you to practice i don't know if people understand
00:19:26.120
like stoicism is the art of like someone who doesn't complain yeah yeah someone who's able to
00:19:31.060
you know carry out his responsibilities and his tasks and his daily things that he needs to do
00:19:36.060
as a man without like moaning and complaining and and like um finding ways of like trying to avoid
00:19:43.120
that like i think i think everything you're saying is actually hot yeah it's all facts yeah but then
00:19:50.120
we're gonna go we're gonna go into society because i feel like the way we think as muslims anyway
00:19:54.600
is completely against the way society's made us start to think of course so there's this conflict of
00:20:00.120
agreeing like you're saying no stoic they're saying but it's it's like okay but society has
00:20:04.700
literally programmed us to not make men mention it be vulnerable mention it be vulnerable and now
00:20:09.740
women are kind of real women muslim women yeah are like dying for the man to be back that way like i
00:20:15.880
want my man to express his emotions to me like no no no no she meant it we're dying for masculine
00:20:20.680
men now you want the man to be like come home with like bowels of water and be like babe you don't
00:20:26.360
need to work but what society's done is made women and men equal so that the women are like the men
00:20:32.260
are crying at home oh baby i can't i can't go to work till i got a cold and that's you get it like
00:20:38.460
that's true that puts me off i'm sorry we've been convinced that that's normal like okay the man
00:20:44.440
should be at home crying on your lap 24 7 the prophet muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasa wasn't crying
00:20:47.820
all the time he was there were times where he was legit killing and and and fighting because he
00:20:54.620
had to the most of the time he was in his masculine state he wasn't always vulnerable
00:20:58.540
do you know i mean and that time with the khadijah when he was revealed the quran was first revealed
00:21:03.360
to him he was that was the first time he was probably vulnerable to that degree yeah but that's
00:21:07.500
not men by default yeah so to say like i want my man to feel like that and women that's our issue as
00:21:13.020
well why don't you talk to me tell me what's going on and the man's just thinking shut up
00:21:17.400
i just want you to sit here and be quiet sometimes yeah let me think this through and
00:21:21.980
this is why there's this conflict what society's told us girls which is fine because it's the way
00:21:27.260
you've been like raised you've been you've been programmed you've been programmed to believe the
00:21:31.440
man should be at home crying you know i don't know i'm gonna go and put on my jacket and go to
00:21:35.600
work sorry to interrupt sorry to interrupt it's okay i'm gonna give you like a solution okay
00:21:41.700
for all of those girls in order to find like a really healthy relationship i think we need to
00:21:49.320
understand men well they don't want to be emasculated just off what you're saying my sister
00:21:54.660
is essentially they we're not saying never be vulnerable obviously everyone has vulnerabilities
00:22:00.160
but if he's sharing something he doesn't want to feel he's emasculating himself and he doesn't want
00:22:08.620
you to react in a in a way that suggests he's emasculate so you know and this is where the
00:22:17.380
submission aspect comes in as a as a wife is that you have to recognize where you're going to
00:22:25.200
submit to him so i think sometimes this submission thing especially in mainstream society has been
00:22:32.200
um cast in quite a negative light oh he's submitting to your husband but submission doesn't mean just
00:22:38.360
doing anything and everything he wants with without any other compassion or elements to the relationship
00:22:43.860
it means just recognizing when you have to pipe down as a female to let him um rise as a male and vice
00:22:52.760
versa like it's it works both ways there's going to be times where he he's going to have to be more
00:22:57.280
compassionate to you so that you can be in your femininity you know he's if he's let's just talk
00:23:03.600
about the you know the ideal model where he's um working all day etc is coming home doesn't want
00:23:11.500
someone to come home and make him feel even less of a man that someone might another man might have
00:23:16.520
but made him feel outside of the household so you have to pipe down and think let him have his moment
00:23:23.880
of you know masculinity in the in the day that maybe he was criticized by other men you know so
00:23:30.220
it he needs to regain um that identity um so this is why you know it's very important for us to as wives
00:23:40.320
or females to respect that need man's need and we talk about men's needs and we always relate it to
00:23:47.020
uh intimacy only you know but that is part of it you know in the grand scheme of things um so yeah
00:23:55.460
that's no i just to like stop and go back to the question what men want in women um you guys tell me
00:24:03.400
about what you think about the points i'm just jotting it down yeah go on so a woman in her real
00:24:08.920
feminine energy who's soft to nurturing caring kind peace um a woman's beauty someone who takes
00:24:15.740
care of her appearance she dresses up for her man fertility um and understanding and empathetic
00:24:21.820
wife um i've also added submissive and respect yeah yeah those i think those we've covered a lot of
00:24:30.380
things we didn't how many points did you suggest really interesting why none of us actually said
00:24:35.980
a religious a religious wife oh yeah why did no one say that god conscious it's that it's a basic
00:24:41.680
it's a basic though but i'm glad no one did yeah do you see what i'm saying yeah because it's it's
00:24:47.500
like no it's like because i feel like it's a scapegoat yeah people just go religious man or
00:24:53.580
religious woman yeah but you need you need to elaborate that though it really doesn't because
00:24:57.680
genuinely we you know there's been a lot of women who fell for religious men and um they
00:25:05.100
they have never worked on themselves they've never looked inwards they've never worked on their traumas
00:25:11.000
and they're very toxic very toxic and then you they use religion as a scapegoat to be like yeah yeah
00:25:17.320
because it sounds so okay but but you have you really thought about it do you really know what
00:25:22.480
you're saying because clearly you don't know what you're saying because you're using religion as a
00:25:26.720
scapegoat for all your problematic behaviors i've noticed that a lot um but yeah it is i feel like
00:25:35.840
yeah i feel like of course a woman a man does want a woman who's on dean um for his children for his
00:25:42.960
children not necessarily because because a woman is a school a woman is a school and she's going to be
00:25:48.280
the first point of contact with your children like your children are going to be raised with
00:25:53.980
that woman's mindset that woman you choose to marry your children are going to have the same mindset so
00:25:58.840
it's so so important to look at so many aspects mindset we forgot about mindset like a man is going
00:26:05.540
to look at woman's mindset what's your mind do you really look for that but sometimes it's it's
00:26:10.160
genuinely yeah but high value men okay if we're going to go into that topic but guys i've got a question
00:26:15.280
i've got a question before we go because the brother said we got 10 minutes yeah so everything
00:26:18.940
we've just mentioned okay yeah how would the brother know just by looking at a sister
00:26:24.540
you've got her out ask a question she has all those essential things so now that helps us get down to
00:26:31.440
just the far most important things men look for and how are you going to know how are you going to
00:26:36.780
know her energy and just how she carries herself how does one know like i hope the brothers ask
00:26:42.440
this as well how will you know that that person has all of those valuable essential assets that
00:26:49.400
we just yeah you know characteristics and all these things it's down to him to think of the
00:26:53.120
right questions but is it islam of course islam brings them to that point so you see somebody you
00:26:58.560
know they're a muslim for one it should be yeah you understand that's the basic bare minimum
00:27:03.540
trying to observe yeah hijab yeah yeah bare minimum and hijab's different all over the world
00:27:09.140
yeah of course of course so i would say islam is the top being a muslim being a religious person
00:27:15.100
and then from when you can confirm that that person's a muslim then you can go on to the next
00:27:20.460
stage which is i don't know how people are finding out who people are and how they're meeting each
00:27:24.500
you know how i see it you know how i see it for men think about the first man that was created
00:27:30.360
the prophet adam yeah and remember he was lonely in heaven and all he wanted was just a companion
00:27:36.640
and that's it men don't want much women run a lot we have a lot like we have a lot of requirements
00:27:43.420
that's a good point i like that point that is that's that he just wants companionship he just
00:27:48.240
wants her energy her aura her presence is enough like a woman yeah and men have said that as well
00:27:54.100
just just sit there that's what i mean but women don't problem solvers we like we nurture us by
00:28:00.200
nature yeah we just want to nurture yeah we want to nurture things and and so i've got an issue with
00:28:05.760
control freaks okay females who are control freaks listen it's too much during this time you know
00:28:11.040
there's a lot of like trauma behind that as well and i keep mentioning trauma but there's a lot of
00:28:15.160
psychological like yeah but i know but it's detrimental i just yeah you yeah you have to
00:28:20.940
work on yourself yeah yeah yeah like do i know myself enough and secretly i'll just add i don't know
00:28:26.560
if he's gonna cook this out they want psychos as well they want a bit of a psycho chick a lot of
00:28:30.580
guys like when i'm joking wait what do you mean psycho elaborate psycho no no it's too broad
00:28:38.180
yeah it is but they do want a bit of psycho i'm just saying that because of the kind of messages i
00:28:44.780
read psychos and just a bit of a challenge but not in a negative way
00:28:48.240
okay okay right i see i see what you mean like a bit of a challenge they want to work for it
00:28:53.820
for too long i've been trying to behave but the truth is the one a bit of a psycho okay i get what
00:28:57.780
you mean like because men they feel like the for men they obviously they're the ones who um go through
00:29:04.940
the what do you call it the vetting process they chase and they like the chase sorry to cut you i think
00:29:10.400
this is essential before before the end the kind of guy we just described the kind of the man that
00:29:16.400
we just all spoke about yeah yeah is a man of old times yeah interesting the modern man today
00:29:22.360
this is why i said a psychory because the modern man today his requirements are far different okay
00:29:28.720
50 50 go on tell me do you really want me to say it yeah i don't know if i can no just say it
00:29:33.820
i'm gonna say it but you're good pg pg keep it pg i can't keep it okay don't then carry on okay
00:29:39.400
unfiltered so okay just be you mate they want this is the truth the modern man today muslim or
00:29:47.460
no muslim okay a lot of them want the botox face yeah this is the truth they want the botox lips
00:29:53.500
the botox forehead wallahi this is the hot this is not modern this is shaitan in in a hijab
00:30:01.040
they want the botox face no i'm really trying to put this across this is just they want the
00:30:09.020
botox face sex a sandwich maker and a slave and because a lot of them have this mentality where
00:30:15.320
this woman is here for my pleasure only yeah yeah yeah very selfish being around modern mentality not
00:30:21.180
saying all of them but some of the guys majority of them and i know because i deal with them in my
00:30:25.200
dms and i deal with them in the comment section and a lot of them say just go and make a sandwich
00:30:30.120
you're just here for sex this is the truth this is the hawk okay the muslim man what we just described
00:30:36.760
doesn't necessarily exist today or he's under he's hiding away from society because it's the truth
00:30:43.080
and the brothers will probably say the same about the sisters on the on the other side because the
00:30:46.660
requirements for the sisters as well is insane as well you know why i feel like everyone's
00:30:50.680
we've lost the hawk you know why we've lost touch with ourselves it's because we've lost touch with
00:30:57.300
allah sorry it always comes down no i i i get what you're saying i do think it's a very like
00:31:02.400
it's a it's a subjective based thing what you say and i do see it and i think if you if you're a man
00:31:09.540
who watches porn um and you indulge in stuff that you're not supposed to be indulging in you're
00:31:17.180
gonna have watching porn so you're gonna have these requirements because why you don't even
00:31:21.420
need to watch porn anymore you just need to go on ig and porn's just at your doorstep
00:31:25.360
yeah that's you know what i mean so we're in a society where that is being pushed in your face
00:31:31.300
24 7 sorry five more minutes yeah it's been pushed in their face that's what i'm saying the modern man
00:31:36.900
today if we're going to talk about the modern man and what men want today the men of today that's
00:31:40.900
what they want but i think it's very sandwich makeup and a slave okay let me let me add to that
00:31:46.020
modern man i i think the reason why the modern man that you the modern man that you've exactly
00:31:53.060
like you've described these this is this is all surface level yeah and if you're going to be looking
00:31:59.880
for women who are surface level stuff then you're somebody who is surface level as well because we
00:32:05.260
we attract who we are and it's the truth i don't care what anyone says we attract who we are and if
00:32:11.260
you're if you're choosing surface levels things like that materialistic stuff like that um superficial
00:32:17.660
stuff like that then then have each other yeah but have each other because this is what you want
00:32:24.000
this is you're most likely a surface level guy as well modern muslims and them back in the day do you
00:32:29.660
think something like this could be happening it's having a podcast like this with men and women
00:32:33.240
talking and class it's not happening but we're in the modern times and we've really got to understand
00:32:38.480
that and i think we've lost way of the dean itself the dean was created and made for every time every
00:32:44.540
era every generation every we've lost it completely we've literally lost it sisters are looking like
00:32:50.140
a halloween mask do you know what i mean and brothers too they're getting these the dying there the
00:32:56.740
hairline hair implants it's gone it's crazy do you understand so when we're looking at it looks
00:33:01.600
surface level yes but people are surface level internally and externally yeah do you know i
00:33:06.440
mean they don't have the dean remember i said about feeding your deep feeding your soul yeah a lot of
00:33:10.820
people don't even pray they don't read the quran and this is the basic basic the stuff that keeps us
00:33:16.100
so alive do you know i mean so what do you think is going to happen after while you're feeding
00:33:19.460
you're watching um constantly showing on tiktok constantly on instagram which is a porn website okay
00:33:23.960
but then i would completely what are what we our preferences become what we are watching
00:33:29.600
and what we are exposed to i guess we need to become more conscious because i feel like
00:33:33.240
i feel like we are innately conscious beings but we're not conscious of the things we're consuming
00:33:39.960
and the effects of it and and then you but you don't realize the effects until like i guess later on
00:33:46.340
until the choices you make okay guys now we need to actually take a pick for we need four things
00:33:51.880
i'm gonna read out the list again and yeah go on you obviously have to agree on it um god conscious
00:33:57.780
islam um a woman in her real feminine energy she's soft nurturing caring kind peace a woman's beauty
00:34:05.840
and someone who takes care of her appearance she dresses up for him fertility um an understanding
00:34:12.580
and empathetic wife she's submissive respect a good mother companionship i'm gonna take off this list
00:34:19.620
i think i think if i'm gonna be quite honest the most important ones here and i think
00:34:23.900
i know so long and they're standing out to me uh we used to definitely respect respectful
00:34:29.320
men that ramble on about respect yeah definitely submissive
00:34:32.860
is gonna are there's respectful under submission though yeah yeah this is what i'm saying so then
00:34:39.620
between those two that covers a lot of aspects so respect respect yeah i'm gonna leave the
00:34:44.940
submissive one because i've got different opinions on that yeah um and definitely respectful
00:34:50.260
religious fertile okay um and attractive okay i don't know that's my so religious attractive and um
00:35:01.060
what was the last one um beauty yeah i think that's the first one okay and then we'll agree
00:35:06.140
together i would say god consciousness um a woman in her feminine energy so soft and nurturing kind
00:35:15.200
caring yeah um someone who's respectful because it's mutual yeah yeah go yeah um and a good mother
00:35:25.260
because yeah i think they just want someone you can provide them with kids okay right i would say
00:35:33.940
what i'm met what men want in women is feminine feminine soft and nurturing um they want
00:35:42.200
they want um a respectful a submissive wife um a woman who is a good mother who is also fertile
00:35:53.700
how many did i just say you said like four okay yeah a companionship five i'm gonna do a take on
00:36:01.000
what we've all yeah yeah and kind of conclude from there so i think what we're saying though not
00:36:07.160
necessarily agreeing 100 just like yeah but the key things that we're all agreeing on yeah um is
00:36:12.940
they're looking for a mother um looking for respect um dean yeah um and femininity yeah
00:36:22.880
okay so guys you have heard the sisters inshallah you've heard what they have to say uh we didn't
00:36:34.360
we was in another room uh and we are going to get them to send us their results uh halfway through
00:36:39.680
this so we don't want to know now so it might influence our uh decision making factors so uh in a
00:36:44.460
nutshell brothers the sisters um were asked what do they believe a man looks for in a uh wife uh we're
00:36:52.660
going to actually tell them what we actually look for in a wife and then what we're going to do is
00:36:56.160
we're going to get their results and compare it to ours and be like okay um is the sisters you know
00:37:00.360
maybe have high expectations or maybe are they dreaming uh we're going to find out today inshallah
00:37:04.620
so let me just open the floor very simply um what do as men what are let's see four things
00:37:11.320
we look for in a wife so every man from muslim man's perspective or yeah there might be some
00:37:18.060
things maybe even non-muslims can agree so let's start with are you married no not yet okay so let's
00:37:25.380
let's start with you inshallah one day okay so um what would you as as a how are you i'm 25
00:37:31.080
masha so 25 here so what would you say are the main things that you look for in a wife i'll mention
00:37:38.680
one quality so i don't want to say the standard things like dean etc because that's uh that's a
00:37:43.900
given so i'm going to say i look for shyness in a woman so okay i'm going to be writing these down
00:37:48.780
yeah okay okay okay so i look for shyness in a woman and what i mean by that is i don't want
00:37:55.180
someone who's got friends everywhere male friends everywhere do you know i mean if we go to a
00:37:59.180
restaurant she knows everyone there i'm looking for someone who's a bit shy right who understands
00:38:03.520
sort of that integrity aspect um that's one of my main qualities i look for in a relationship
00:38:08.180
okay is that the main thing well the main thing is going to be dean isn't it but that's
00:38:14.020
mention three things to me three things okay so so i do want someone who's a bit sort of
00:38:19.480
career focused as well so that's another thing right have some sort of ambition anything career
00:38:23.560
focused business some sort of thing to have on the side just to give them a bit of you know
00:38:27.680
ambition essentially that's what i'm attracted to um third thing is obviously dean that's number one
00:38:32.700
priority essentially um so having that sort of eagerness me and the brother next to me i was
00:38:37.440
speaking to him earlier about it having that sort of um sort of that uh eagerness to learn about
00:38:42.780
islam um salah the main thing um so just things like that so i'm looking for the three main things
00:38:48.060
okay um mahdi well what would you say um is a man's criteria do you mind if i uh just the
00:38:56.780
question the brother get some clarity so akhi mahdi you mentioned um my twin by the way
00:39:02.420
it's very strange for me to say mahdi i very i rarely say it so you mentioned just now that you
00:39:08.400
would like your wife to be to be career focused i have two questions number one why number two how
00:39:17.100
do you know that you want her to be career focused so for me career let me provide more clarity to
00:39:23.120
the question what's your experience of being married to a career focused woman so one i can't
00:39:28.700
give experience with that because i'm not married never have been okay but essentially what me by
00:39:32.940
career focused is it doesn't necessarily mean you know she needs to go out 37 and a half hours a week
00:39:37.680
what i want is to have some sort of ambition a business on the side anything even our profits
00:39:43.340
wives had businesses on the side that's what i'm attracted to some sort of ambition so you mentioned
00:39:47.400
you're attracted to it what i brought by the way i don't have a problem with this i'm just trying
00:39:51.220
to get clarity what makes you attracted to that what is it about that that attracts you to that
00:39:56.640
yeah and i understand so with that with career job that sort of stuff i sort of apply intellect with
00:40:03.380
that so i think it's it goes hand in hand so when i see someone who's got a good job safe job high
00:40:10.080
paying job there's progression in there i like that i'm attracted to it in a sense where i know they've
00:40:14.100
worked hard to get there they've got that sort of discipline to get there's an example or something
00:40:18.200
to look for if she doesn't have that what is that indicative to you or what do you fear she might
00:40:24.620
be or not be if she doesn't have these uh this skills that you've mentioned so for me it's not
00:40:31.000
it's not sort of black and white it's a sort of there's many factors with this right but if she
00:40:35.800
doesn't have any sort of ambition in that aspect i don't think she's as hard working as i'd like her
00:40:40.240
to be to be honest so why do you want her to be hard working again it sounds like an accusatory
00:40:46.000
question it's not i'm just trying to understand what do you want her to be hard working for
00:40:49.760
what's the end goal or the end value that you get yeah the end goal is gender for everyone isn't it
00:40:55.560
you know it's heaven for me on a personal on a personal level it shows to me that she's worked
00:41:00.340
hard for something you know i mean and i understand do you think you're conflating a ambition with
00:41:06.380
career because you know it's very we have this um propaganda tool of career do you think you're
00:41:10.740
talking about somebody who has a drive who has an ambition uh but do you think you're just
00:41:14.000
mis-equating it and making a synonym to career if a woman is for example smart she comes to you and
00:41:18.800
says you know what um i did my degree in math mathematics um i do not want to work i want to
00:41:23.140
be a housewife again she's still got that degree she's still working good so it's not that you want
00:41:27.600
a career wife it's basically somebody who's gone out there yeah yeah done something exactly has
00:41:31.600
something it's clever what do you think do you think he's coming from there or he's conflating the
00:41:35.380
truth i honestly i don't know i don't know and that's why i'm trying to get clarity and don't think
00:41:38.840
i'm like putting i'm not putting you under the cosh bro but i always try to get clarity before i
00:41:42.840
provide my answer i want to understand either what what value do you get from that or what do
00:41:50.200
you fear she will not have if you marry a woman who doesn't possess these qualities one of the two
00:41:55.480
you're looking to either seek a value from her of some sort or you fear she might have something that
00:42:01.320
you don't like what is it which one so what is it so for me in that aspect i don't want a woman to
00:42:06.320
have 100 reliance on me i want some sort of level of independence on the woman's side okay so that's
00:42:12.120
the gist of it so when you say 100 reliance do you mean from a bill's perspective or do you mean from
00:42:15.840
an emotional perspective no just not even from a bill's perspective i'm happy to provide it's more
00:42:20.100
of a sense of having her own thing going on the side for me i'll have i'll have a job i'll have things
00:42:25.200
that i do outside of the marriage i want her to have qualities like that where she can have her
00:42:30.000
own independence time away from me etc i'm glad i asked all of those questions because now i'm in
00:42:34.560
agreement with you there you go and it's very important i need for your woman to have her own
00:42:38.680
little thing going on because otherwise the boredom will kill her and who's who's gonna who's
00:42:43.740
gonna be gonna project onto the man yeah you'll be picking up that slack so in that case i agree
00:42:47.720
with you okay good so uh guys i think we have about maybe under 30 minutes um so the first the
00:42:53.040
first thing is we said okay modesty uh you mentioned should we like career should we use another
00:42:58.000
word ambition ambition ambition okay ambition that's fine so methi um what's the three things that
00:43:03.700
you look for in a woman and from his sciences that he has created from you uh wives such that
00:43:18.720
you so that you may find peace in her so allah has already described in the quran one of the major
00:43:28.360
qualities that we are we are able to receive from a wife and that is peace especially if you are a man
00:43:36.560
who is hard-working you don't have to be by the way high value man bin men are hard-working yeah
00:43:42.980
plumbers are hard-working a hard-working man yeah blue collar white collar is irrelevant what does he
00:43:48.800
want to come home to after his hard working day peace he doesn't want to come home to a war zone
00:43:54.300
for me after the deen and when i say deen i'm not looking for no sheikha she prays five times a day
00:44:00.000
and she wants to get better in her religion she has that eagerness there that's enough for me
00:44:04.220
then peace can you be peaceful bismillah mashaAllah alhamdulillah okay that's i think the word peace is um
00:44:11.960
very very vital which i i would agree with as well from just obviously i'm the host but i would just
00:44:17.500
like to me it's obviously uh the deen the deen should be there uh peace is fundamental it is so
00:44:24.740
fundamental because we as men uh with our masculine traits we deal with all this chaos and you know
00:44:30.240
uh whatever it is for what angle do you get what i'm trying to say um and we want to come home to
00:44:34.600
peace um and i've said this before like i've confronted you know the britain first uh jayda
00:44:39.080
do you remember her yeah just i always say this to myself i was like can you imagine i'll come back
00:44:43.860
home to another jayda no just imagine i'm i'm confronting jayda i've got all that headache
00:44:47.460
okay yeah well try this and then i come home there's another jayda waiting at home yeah i don't
00:44:51.180
want that but i want i want peace yeah so peace is very fundamental and uh modesty and deen for me
00:44:56.180
personally but uh okay for you what was the three things that you would um say that you look for
00:45:01.380
three things that you look for in in a in a wife and men look for as well um you know i think i was
00:45:08.580
looking for four things uh we didn't say how many wives you want but we meant
00:45:12.360
why do you tell the truth it's the truth bro i told the truth inshallah if my wife is watching
00:45:19.300
she knows the truth too but no no no inshallah but for anything else four things yes that i would
00:45:28.360
look for one there has to be emotional compatibility right i have to have someone that i can emotionally
00:45:39.220
connect with i have to have someone that i can intellectually connect with that me and her
00:45:45.220
we're on the same mental level if i'm talking about one thing and she's completely alien to what
00:45:52.300
i'm discussing then we're never going to be able to connect i have to have someone that i can
00:45:58.480
spiritually connect with that on our journey together that she accepts and respects my leadership
00:46:06.780
in our spiritual growth and also there has to be someone that i can physically connect with
00:46:14.040
so these will be my four main things physical spiritual emotional and intellectual
00:46:20.480
okay uh for me uh alhamdulillah it's the first is deen everyone knows but peace is very important
00:46:29.260
but i personally think the important thing is loyalty you need a wife to stand by you no matter
00:46:35.280
at good times at bad times she sticks by you and be there for you not like when she's there with you
00:46:41.560
at good times and when the bad time comes and now she turns away like you know that's a very very
00:46:46.760
important um thing in a marriage because there's loads of women there that when the hard time comes
00:46:53.520
they don't stick by you so for me a loyalty a woman who sticks by me at the good times and the bad time
00:46:59.760
for me is very very important in a marriage okay um so there's some few things i've written here so
00:47:06.180
we've written we've written i've written modesty a dean ambition loyalty peace three of us i think
00:47:13.440
read we the word the word peace is something that resonates with all of us emotional connection
00:47:17.760
now when it comes to emotional connection special connection that's a bit more um i think we're
00:47:22.060
talking more about individual aspects i want to talk a bit more general what men look for like can we
00:47:26.720
agree that every man wants to um uh wants somebody a woman that's feminine can we can agree because i think
00:47:37.280
i don't want to go into the nitty gritties of i prefer this i want to make it a bit more broad and a bit
00:47:40.480
more general um in that aspect um so does every man well should we say that for example what what
00:47:46.680
would we put at the top of that list we've got let's say four what can we because we need to agree
00:47:50.500
what is the thing that every man will be like this without this it's not happening what would that
00:47:54.580
be well dean essentially that's the main thing we all picked up yeah without dean you can't have a
00:48:00.120
successful marriage okay i don't think so really i think you can in general yeah in general men will
00:48:06.760
place a lot of value on a woman's looks a looks 100 if she's not good looking yeah no matter how
00:48:13.060
pious she is i think men will be like so i mentioned this sacrifice i might be wrong but i did mention
00:48:18.680
this before i said um on the last episode that men do look for looks a lot right right and i think
00:48:23.680
you're correct in the issue of that on a general basis the first thing because if you're going to
00:48:28.240
marry her exactly make her your wife exactly what's you're going to go for her looks but then
00:48:32.140
after that everything all right therefore then there's no no i agree with what he's saying
00:48:36.180
we need to be real with ourselves yeah okay and even if you think about the matter of looks it's
00:48:40.360
important for us because we live at an age where it's a bit mad yeah uh so looks is important and
00:48:45.720
because it helps you to lower your gaze it helps you to be content with your wife and especially
00:48:48.960
living in an in an age where there's certain things that are taboo etc for example if a man wanted
00:48:53.680
to get married again there's a whole chaos who has so it's very important for you to be content
00:48:57.580
with your wife but what i'm saying is like the look are important but you're not gonna like
00:49:01.680
what we look for in a wife of course it's gonna be you have to be attractive to her to marry her
00:49:07.140
okay good so so so this is what is important okay so dean look okay let's let me make it if you had
00:49:11.780
somebody who is absolutely religious qiyam quran you name it yeah she's just carrying quran with
00:49:16.020
everywhere yeah she is not good looking when i say good looking to you would you marry no i wouldn't
00:49:20.980
marry i want to be real here yeah because in my marriage speaking process uh yes there were sisters
00:49:26.460
who were really religious but not to my liking yes so therefore i i have to be real and not act
00:49:32.240
pious and be like no hadeen so looks play a role so dean look if i met a sister who was drop dead
00:49:38.400
gorgeous like beautiful yeah but she had no dean again to me yes i would have to fight my little
00:49:45.060
shayateen's here like you know but yeah you know you might you might teach you the dean
00:49:48.440
yeah yeah okay so so ali i've got a question for you okay so the thing is all right a girl can be
00:49:55.460
beautiful yeah but what about her character soon as you talk to her and a girl can look beautiful
00:50:00.400
when you look at her yeah but her character is so bad that but that's the first thing men look at is
00:50:07.020
looks and then everything else comes okay the brother's correcting me so okay so do we agree
00:50:11.920
mahti as well you uh i don't know sorry i don't know i'll call mahti one mahti two yeah mahti one
00:50:17.340
over here actually no that's that's what i said mahti one oh perfect so uh aki so i'm saying in a
00:50:23.100
nutshell when we look at a potential is it dean first or looks first because i believe like for
00:50:28.800
me personally it would be like i have to be attracted to her then the second thing is dean if
00:50:32.800
the dean is not there it's not happening so it doesn't mean the the beauty in itself it's going to do
00:50:36.760
it for me can we agree is it dean first or beauty first in that sense but actually work
00:50:41.280
simultaneously but the dean can come afterwards can't it true you have to be a certain amount
00:50:47.320
of dean true all i'm saying if you meet if you're religious yourself and you like you know and you
00:50:52.960
meet a woman that is attractive and she's got some of the dean in her but when you get married to her
00:50:57.720
your relationship the way you are your dean will get stronger together true true that's the potential
00:51:02.640
but it can happen it goes based to the character but dean in like if somebody's not praying this
00:51:07.320
i do not care how beautiful you are if you're not given the rights of allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
00:51:10.960
you're gonna you're not gonna give me my rights they don't do allah's rights so to me i would say
00:51:15.260
um can i write the top list dean and beauty can we agree on that i would say the following and that
00:51:22.340
is i'm assuming the majority of your audience are you the the men who will be watching are men who are
00:51:27.940
not married because if you are already married and we're talking about second third and fourth wife
00:51:32.280
i will give you a different answer does she have to have dean no she doesn't have to have dean
00:51:37.300
does she have to want dean yes she has to want dean meaning there are a number of sisters out there
00:51:44.280
for whatever case they're in an environment that is not conducive towards them practicing the religion
00:51:49.700
and they are inherently weak women are easily led this way or that this is why as a muslim man you can
00:51:54.600
marry a christian or a jew but not vice versa because women typically are the ones who are led and she's in
00:51:59.060
an environment that is not conducive to her practicing the dean but she wants to she acknowledges and
00:52:05.000
recognizes i want to do better i just like i need that guy to to give me that final push because
00:52:11.600
she's in an environment where she feels she can't do it herself this is a very positive indication and
00:52:16.960
quality okay this is we're talking about for first wife now because second third for i'll give you a
00:52:21.380
different answer completely does she have to have dean no i'll tell you straight up so let's stick to the
00:52:24.640
first wife so let's stick to the first exactly so does she have to have as she doesn't have to have it
00:52:29.560
but she has to want it and if you if you apply this when you're dealing with sisters i'm guarantee
00:52:35.600
i guarantee you to the young single brothers who are watching you're going to expand your pool
00:52:39.280
of of potential eligible bachelorettes available to you because a lot of brothers are looking for
00:52:46.840
the ready-made sister she doesn't exist you need to look for the core ingredients and then it's on
00:52:52.260
you to bake the cake it's on you to assemble the the the wife to your to your liking so to speak
00:52:58.680
but the thing is like with me i'm the perfect example because my wife is a reaver she wasn't
00:53:03.360
muslim when i met her i've done everything right my acts and action um made her interested in islam
00:53:09.520
and we we practiced together i wasn't a good muslim myself so we practiced together to become better
00:53:16.240
muslims and we're still practicing so that's yes in that instance you're absolutely right for
00:53:21.500
example you went on that journey together yeah uh but for example like for myself if i that's
00:53:26.600
that's an exception because if i met a sister who was a reaver and she wanted to know i would never
00:53:31.120
i would as long as she's saying i want to learn all day every day yeah even if it comes like i'll be
00:53:36.580
honest with you even if it comes she doesn't wear the hijab and she's like i would like to as long
00:53:40.660
as the character and the willingness is one to be that's fine so we're talking about those who don't
00:53:44.200
have the willingness yeah so so should we say beauty and dean two things that meant i just want to pick
00:53:50.240
up on that point the brother just said um i think there's a there's a boundary though i think a lot
00:53:55.380
of people in my generation they put too much emphasis on when they get married then they'll
00:53:59.260
become religious they'll have too much dependency on the other to help them get religious at the end
00:54:04.660
of the day it's between you and allah you can't rely solely on someone else to push you through and
00:54:09.520
become on dean let me expand on that point because i actually dealt with the sister once who actually
00:54:13.200
said this to me i was considering her for marriage and she said to me after my after we get married
00:54:17.900
then i'll wear hijab i said to her i'm not feeling this vibe or your attitude towards it what do you
00:54:23.040
mean after no no but after the wedding what is it you want to do you want to have a big fat wedding
00:54:27.860
and all of that i didn't i didn't like that but if she if the if the vibe is you know what brother i
00:54:33.340
know i need to do better believe me i really want to do better i know i'm messing up this is a positive
00:54:39.000
indication that she's just weak and that if you are stronger than her in your iman which you should be
00:54:43.360
by the way i get confused when brother says to me i want my wife to guide me separate discussion
00:54:47.180
but if your iman is just a little bit stronger than hers you will be that you will give her that
00:54:51.720
final push yeah again though that i understand what you're saying but the problem with that is
00:54:55.860
if two weak people with weak imans they they won't be able to help each other they'll probably fall
00:55:00.760
into the thing is with that type of thing i think men nowadays i don't think but i think a man has to
00:55:05.680
be the stronger person yeah but that's the situation so the thing is a man is weak and he's trying to
00:55:11.300
get with a weak woman then that is not a good match is that they're just gonna stay the same
00:55:15.880
okay so so so far we've got two guys our time is kind of running out um so beauty and dean number
00:55:21.100
one um i think that's dean on there and then beauty but i don't want the sisters to get all like
00:55:25.600
because when they hear this beauty thing they're like man they get this like next level anxiety
00:55:29.180
but this is very important because we have to there's a thin line because you're right i don't
00:55:33.400
want them to feel like oh you see this is the reason why and sisters sadly that's the reason why
00:55:36.900
they're so easily influenced should you say beauty or attraction no no we're gonna have to look we'll
00:55:40.040
say yeah attraction yeah attraction so we'll say dean first and then attractiveness meaning that for
00:55:44.580
example we all would agree that if there's someone that's really on dean but they are not attracted
00:55:48.660
to them you will not marry them yeah we agree with that and i think vice versa says it as well
00:55:53.060
okay so then we've got dean we've got attractiveness what is third in the line where you're like okay
00:55:58.100
this is vital yeah and let's not conflate um can we say someone on dean is modest can we say that
00:56:04.520
not necessarily okay so then what about modesty like like haya like like i'll mention that i agree
00:56:10.100
with that but i personally think um i don't know loyalty is a massive thing you don't the thing is
00:56:16.900
like you can have you can loyalty be simultaneous with modesty because it is can we i think they're
00:56:24.500
two separate what do you think loyalty and modesty i think they're two separate traits to be honest
00:56:27.520
with you loyalty covers so much more than just um just modesty because you want you want you want a wife
00:56:32.280
to stick by you like the hard times and the good times you don't just don't want a wife that
00:56:36.360
who is uh attractive and who prays and when the hard time comes and she's not i agree with you
00:56:42.640
i'm gonna give you a parable that might shift even though i agree with you yeah i'm not in disagreement
00:56:46.380
with you i'm gonna give you a parable that might shift your mindset on this and that is let's say you
00:56:51.980
work for a company you're an employee at this company you find out that the company has six months
00:56:56.980
left of payroll and then the 95 likelihood they're going to go bankrupt i have to a question for you
00:57:02.840
and you can choose option a or option b option a you'll ride or die and you're gonna stick it through
00:57:08.120
to the end come hell or high water whether they there is a job for you afterwards or not doesn't
00:57:13.140
matter option b is you're going to start applying for jobs elsewhere whilst you're applying you'll
00:57:17.740
continue working for the current job which option you're going to take ride or die to the end
00:57:21.900
or start applying for jobs elsewhere to just to be safe the thing is i can't really i like company
00:57:29.040
situation and life situation they're not comparable they're not they're not the same thing i'll explain
00:57:32.960
to you why it's comparable and the reason why is this in a company situation although it's a different
00:57:39.020
example and i don't just i i let me just make it i'm not excusing women who do this by the way
00:57:43.800
because you're right there is a slight difference but i'm trying to make you understand they are the more
00:57:48.220
vulnerable of the two between you you are the quote-unquote leader what does that make her
00:57:53.340
the follower you are the captain what does that make her one of the i don't know the guys on the
00:57:58.460
ship whatever you want to call it not demeaning her level what i'm saying is is that when you are the
00:58:03.440
one being led and you sense weakness or impending doom in your leader you are going to feel a certain
00:58:10.220
level of anxiety and lack of security and in the example that i gave you you will start applying for
00:58:16.120
another job now am i giving women carte blanche to start applying for another job with their husband
00:58:21.040
no i'm not but i am saying i understand why the thought would creep into her mind possibly because
00:58:27.360
they are the vulnerable of the two in the relationship she's trusting you to lead her as far as she can see
00:58:32.560
there's no payroll in six months time what's she going to do i'm pregnant or i've got your kids and
00:58:37.820
we're not going to have no money maybe i need to start looking elsewhere this is why so a lot of women
00:58:42.460
do end up quote-unquote monkey branching elsewhere because of this she is the one who is in the
00:58:47.760
subordinate position in the relationship and i'm not excusing her i don't i don't excuse this behavior
00:58:52.960
if her husband is doing his best and he's really trying she needs to like have that commitment
00:58:57.920
the deen comes in the way that we you know every test comes from allah and if you if this is your
00:59:03.880
test so if she doesn't want to go through that's her choice i agree i'm just i just this the female
00:59:08.500
experience that's it so okay all right so what's the what's the third are we going to go with um
00:59:13.560
was it loyalty or i think modesty for me i'm gonna i'm gonna say what i think is important
00:59:22.080
um after the after beauty um it is cleanliness and how she manages the house now if you are married to
00:59:34.720
a woman that's unhygienic and she isn't looking after the home then no matter how much peace you're
00:59:45.100
getting if you've been fighting with jada during the day and you come home to a pigsty i prefer that
00:59:50.520
all of a jada all day every day yeah i prefer that all of a jada because you know what that i can clean
00:59:54.940
up there's a solution to that cleaning up but there's no solution for jada but then here's the
00:59:59.060
here's the thing if for if you come home no that's fine that's fine personally for me if
01:00:06.840
it's not clean and it's um there isn't there's i think from the majority of men that i've spoken to
01:00:15.480
that i deal with there is and you have kids if you're going out to work there's an expectation
01:00:21.300
that this is your duty that's that's the homemaker so i do feel like you know what that can be taught
01:00:29.760
easier than loyalty and um and modesty in my opinion it's a character training exactly okay guys we need
01:00:35.320
okay look peace is something we spoke about so the third one is it loyalty or peace because peace is
01:00:41.720
i'll be honest i think a lot of men want peace like a lot of men it's just it's just look i just want
01:00:46.320
peace yeah okay look i'll write peace down yeah okay that's fine uh what's number four we might
01:00:59.760
have five well two more two more yeah so what's two more things that and let's make it more general
01:01:04.000
let's not go to the like like you said cleaning etc which is true but these are the some men might be
01:01:09.660
like okay i don't really mind we're talking about core core values um i i think an important thing is
01:01:15.380
when your wife makes the effort with you like you know she looks good she was trying to look after
01:01:20.580
herself for you you know like but that comes out under attraction yeah yeah yeah exactly so do we need
01:01:27.100
one or two more so what like we've got we talked about higher higher modesty um is that fall on the d
01:01:33.940
modesty it's um part of it i think the d should improve your modesty yeah if she appreciates you
01:01:41.380
yeah exactly that's an important one appreciation gratitude for especially for the majority of men
01:01:48.140
who are yeah doing their best yeah and you know maybe his best is not as much as she wants
01:01:53.420
but that gratitude that's a big one yeah gratitude gratitude okay gratitude okay that's that's that's
01:02:02.120
actually very important because you know why gratitude is sadly it's it's it's a trait of the process
01:02:06.940
and i mentioned that woman have it is very important because think about a man working hard
01:02:11.440
is and he's trying his best yes and he comes home and his wife tells him what you're doing
01:02:16.620
he's not good enough exactly good good good see now we're talking about core do you get it yeah so
01:02:21.400
this is this is gratitude is fundamental not only that the process of them talked to the woman and
01:02:25.660
told him that the reason why majority of them were in the hellfire is because of the ingratitude
01:02:28.760
because they were ungrateful to their husbands you know um so in that aspect it shows that
01:02:34.780
there's a character issue there which they need to work on you know so gratitude okay last one so
01:02:40.260
we've got deen beauty peace and gratitude i think this is good these are this is good one any one
01:02:45.040
last thing that you guys would add on there one last loyalty is quite powerful on that you know that
01:02:49.340
if you're looking at all of these i think loyalty actually carries quite a lot of weight yeah it
01:02:53.360
does loyalty is very i think in a marriage loyalty is a big big massive thing it does it does carry
01:02:57.640
weight yeah i think it covers a lot of basis loyalty it doesn't mean she's going to cheat
01:03:00.740
just a woman who doesn't yeah who doesn't gossip a lot i'd agree because the thing is is that she
01:03:06.000
can i think you're right like even if she has deen it doesn't mean that she has loyalty right
01:03:11.340
it should inspire loyalty but often it doesn't you're right exactly yeah because but then again
01:03:15.700
the argument could be that how far can she go before she jumps ship right so that's the whole
01:03:24.160
different question but overall i think that's something that you expect if you're the captain of the ship
01:03:29.900
that your crew are with you okay good should we find out the results from the sisters and see
01:03:35.280
what they had in mind okay um do you get a prize we've got the most right yeah let's see yeah yeah
01:03:40.580
free holiday time can you ask let me let me go let me go okay so guys um since we are reacting to
01:03:52.340
we have more time so here's what they wrote they wrote that they believe we look for deen
01:03:56.500
we look for uh respect why didn't we write that's a good one why didn't we say respect
01:04:02.840
yeah we'll plug in somewhere deen respect peace mother i don't know what that means
01:04:10.220
motherhood family therefore a woman who is in her feminine energy soft nurturing caring and kindness
01:04:18.520
dress up for the man and takes care of the appearance okay so that's looks okay so that's
01:04:23.600
interesting we got deen there peace is there that's good but we didn't we didn't put respect
01:04:28.860
that and to be honest that's many isn't isn't respect the main like to us is like that comes
01:04:33.400
with gratitude yeah i was gonna say so they're kind of similar okay so that's interesting so they
01:04:37.880
they have written the deen which is we got they got right respect gratitude um peace that's good
01:04:45.380
man they've done different so this is i was expecting some lala dance stuff i'm not gonna i'm not
01:04:49.660
joking i was expecting like yeah you know but uh anyways so what do you guys make out of that so
01:04:54.460
do you believe the sisters today are kind of in check with the realities of what men want or
01:04:59.100
some sisters are some aren't it just depends it's case by case now isn't it okay so let's say we're
01:05:05.260
speaking to these the sisters who are watching this yeah because i'm sure they're going to be
01:05:08.140
watching this yeah um what would you say to them to look for in their future future husband for
01:05:13.260
three things or in the sea that you would give to them because we've we've written their results
01:05:17.080
which is i'm actually very surprised it's very close to what we are looking for so uh they are
01:05:21.800
kind of in tune i thought they were out of tune they're alhamdulillah they're quite in tune the
01:05:24.440
sisters may allah bless them what would you say to um the sisters that are watching this who are
01:05:28.600
maybe looking for other stuff um you know i think today that there is so much pressure on
01:05:38.680
men and women in society to to almost break a family up
01:05:44.720
that i think there's like a war on family today yes right and that for sisters when they're looking
01:05:52.160
for a potential spouse they have to look for someone that's going to provide real leadership
01:05:59.200
now there's a lot of men like for example i think most of us are here are fathers
01:06:04.400
right if you're a father and you're a man you can immediately see
01:06:10.080
a man that's not really 100 you know like he's trying it that's why you're the guardian
01:06:16.320
right you can see right through him that he's coming in and he's putting on a show because deep
01:06:22.640
down he's not secure we can see that all of us as fathers we can see straight away and we will know
01:06:28.320
when we see a man whether he's gonna be able to look after someone he might not be there
01:06:34.800
but he's got that potential because he's secure or he's grounded then you can see others that are
01:06:44.400
trying to fake it like they are we can see through them too right so i think it's really important for
01:06:50.080
sisters to have what if they can a good relationship with their fathers and if not a good relationship with
01:06:58.800
a male guardian that they trust and like older brother or someone that can you know check another
01:07:06.560
guy so i think that's really primary that's what islam is yep um what men what men need to find in a
01:07:14.000
man is it no but basically what advice would you give to like sisters because the expectations here
01:07:17.920
these sisters masha they're on point yeah but it's just out there what do you think what what
01:07:21.760
would you give her to look into it in a man like a couple of things um important thing is dean and his
01:07:28.400
character what kind of character he has how he carries himself um how he talks is he respectful
01:07:34.800
and um the people around him who hangs around where he hangs around uh what he does you know i mean all
01:07:40.880
them things and that will show his character what kind of person but the thing is this doesn't guarantee
01:07:45.600
the person because he might be like a lot of people put act on and say who they are what they are then
01:07:52.400
after marriage they're totally different person but you have to do your best to do your research
01:07:57.520
don't walk into something and thinking that oh you know like he's a good looking guy and just walk
01:08:02.960
into it we're blind and just mess yourself up so i'll say every time if you want to go into a marriage
01:08:08.640
do your research properly but his character and his dean is very very important and who he hangs around
01:08:14.240
and what he does yeah i think the process said that when it came to look for someone dean and
01:08:18.000
and the character yeah it's very fundamental a lot of says make that misjudgment of he looks righteous
01:08:22.560
pious but the character is so flawed it's disgusting character uh which is vital yep um mahdi number one
01:08:29.040
yeah um so yeah what the brother said sort of safety security to ensure you know your home's going to be
01:08:34.800
there your family's going to be there if you if you're married to a man who's constantly job hopping
01:08:38.880
in doesn't have a job um you've got no sense of security and safety there um another point as
01:08:44.400
well i'd like to make is uh confidence look for a man with confidence and i say that confidence in
01:08:49.600
the right in the right things so i don't mean confidence when you're just chatting for days you
01:08:54.160
know make your funny jokes this and that i mean confidence in your dean confidence to take control
01:08:58.320
of the relationship to say you know what you want to do what you think is right be a leader essentially
01:09:03.520
i think a lot of men lack that in this generation true true yeah matthew what would you speak into
01:09:07.760
a young sister who's i would say where most uh where most individuals go wrong especially in the
01:09:15.040
muslim community when it comes to marriage is uh they go about procuring too much information
01:09:21.360
they talk for too long they meet too many times they go too deep and then they discover each other's
01:09:26.480
flaws familiarity breeds contempt and when you're not tied by marriage to have to figure it out
01:09:33.680
you're like there must be someone else better out there and the truth of the matter is we are all
01:09:37.760
flawed we all have things that are dislikable all of us what you're looking for are the core
01:09:43.440
ingredients are the core ingredients there alhamdulillah bismillah pull the trigger and don't spend
01:09:48.400
forever talking and i have a rule when it comes to if i'm to consider marrying a sister maximum i will
01:09:54.400
meet her three times usually i don't even do that now maximum first time is just assessing general
01:10:00.160
compatibility i'm not looking to go into any deal breakers or things like that just is there
01:10:04.400
chemistry no point talking about deal breakers if i haven't even established if i like you or not
01:10:08.560
what are we even doing second conversation will be okay now we need to find out what are the
01:10:13.840
expectations here that's where we go a bit deep third meeting is just when when we're getting
01:10:18.160
married and that's it too much information is bad information this texting backwards and forwards
01:10:23.120
and dm and and not only is it haram to be honest with you but you're actually sabotaging your
01:10:28.560
chances of getting married very true but uh brother mahdi i just need to ask you you know you said about
01:10:33.440
like people meet up but do you think is so easy that people get divorced nowadays because they think
01:10:39.840
grass is green on the other side you know i mean like nowadays you know like
01:10:44.800
back in the day when people used to get married used to be like let's work on this let's
01:10:48.400
let's you know if they had a problem at home they would work on it but nowadays if they have a
01:10:52.640
little argument they want to split up yeah people have commitment issues at the moment they can't
01:10:57.440
stick to you know there's a deep rooted issue but i mean this could potentially take us to another
01:11:02.080
discussion how much time do we have not much uh we can maybe discuss that uh another time
01:11:08.320
i mean it's a long-winded answer but it's fine because we're reacting to them
01:11:12.640
but to answer your question is that so as ali pointed out earlier uh ali that the majority of
01:11:20.480
divorces are initiated by women women are neurotic by nature we all know this when the going gets tough
01:11:25.600
even a little bit tough i want to leave or whatever a lot of women have this tendency yeah your job as a
01:11:31.440
man is to you be that wall that where her emotional waves crash on right and i have found
01:11:36.880
that and just to juxtapose what i'm about to say with like i'm not talking out my backside
01:11:44.800
but allah's permission firstly and foremostly and any good i have is from him and he can take
01:11:48.640
it away from me as quickly as he gave it to me so this is not me polishing my own halo but i'm just
01:11:53.120
to the audience know i've been married for nearly 20 years alhamdulillah six of those years in
01:11:57.600
pillaging i have eight children that of my own three orphans and i also have a number of wives
01:12:03.200
alhamdulillah and the one frame that i have found to be the most effective in not just attracting but
01:12:10.480
maintaining women and the small circle of men that can count on one hand who also have multiple wives
01:12:15.920
in their harim if you like is do what you gotta do whatever that is with regards to work and
01:12:24.640
responsibilities and after that you'll deal with your wife when you are running from pillar to post
01:12:30.240
trying to please her chasing after what is it that you want habib who cares what she wants she
01:12:34.480
doesn't know what she wants this is what you you know what she wants she wants you to take the lead
01:12:39.920
do what you got to do at work and then come home sweetheart we're going out yeah let's go out
01:12:44.240
let's have some fun whatever the case may be but when a man is constantly his frame of reference is
01:12:48.960
what makes her happy habib that changes from a moment a moment thing those that that's that's like
01:12:54.320
it's a fleeting and it's passing it's interesting look i have i have a lot of differences with many
01:12:59.040
people here yeah and um but that's the email a lot of people would listen to and i have to agree to
01:13:03.680
that you know um you know not going to do my personal life but you know i've i've been a Muslim for 10
01:13:09.600
years um i've had a jahli of 10 years and um and even in the deen like even system nine may be
01:13:15.440
robust got heat for this so if you look at the deen the deen is actually the wife pleasing the husband
01:13:20.880
it's not vice versa this doesn't mean you oppress your wife we're not talking about that what we're
01:13:24.880
talking about is our sisters a woman in their nature they're emotional beings there's instability
01:13:29.040
there they need somebody who can take the lead and that's correct when we're out there working
01:13:33.200
for our family like i said before i mean andrew t even said this as well we don't go out there with
01:13:37.360
the ambition of i'm going to wake up in the morning go through a b c d and all these obstacles to come
01:13:41.760
home and oppress my wife no i'm going there to give her the the life inshallah but it's not at the thing of
01:13:47.920
if you try to go and please your wife like oh whatever she wants she and the statement might
01:13:53.760
sound a bit misogynistic whatever but sometimes she doesn't know what she exactly wants you know
01:13:58.800
it's it's it's in their nature you need to understand do we not know this phrase like for
01:14:02.880
example when a woman said yes it means no okay so it's very clear that in their biology they have
01:14:09.520
they they they they do they will never tell you directly what they want the one underlying quality
01:14:14.640
yeah the one underlying quality that i have found of men who are able to attract and maintain women
01:14:21.520
without any problem and they typically have multiple wives at the same time and i include myself in that
01:14:25.200
statement is that not one single one of them ever asked what makes her happy not one of them ever
01:14:32.000
concerns himself with what makes her happy does that mean he wants to make her unhappy no he wants her to
01:14:38.160
be happy but he doesn't make it his primary concern his prime these men are typically very very busy
01:14:44.320
they hardly even see their families but then when they see them let's go we're going out we're going
01:14:49.680
to have some fun it doesn't concern himself with this question in the first place that's not his
01:14:53.360
orientation his orientation is i have to take care of these responsibilities which are heavy on my head
01:14:58.160
take care of that and then we're gonna go out and we're gonna have fun yes there's a question what
01:15:04.160
about if he's not dealing with his responsibilities and therefore she is unhappy and then he's escaping
01:15:14.240
so neither is he fulfilling his actual responsibilities nor is he considering whether she's happy or not
01:15:20.000
because he's like come on let's go out and she's like well we've got all of this that you haven't dealt
01:15:25.840
with he's like no no i don't care because i'm the man because in his framework he's not man he's a boy
01:15:32.640
of course but then we are living in a society today where men don't know how to be men right we're living
01:15:39.840
in a society where women and this feminist movement is so strong that for a man to be less manly and more
01:15:49.600
soft and so on and argue himself into like avoiding his responsibilities he's like well i've become the
01:15:56.640
leader now so how do you deal with that so you're right that's a whole different topic in the sense
01:16:00.480
where you're right we're talking about men who give their responsibilities the men that you're talking
01:16:03.920
about like i said before whenever we talk about these topics the sisters always come into the head
01:16:07.680
of this vile crazy individual we're not talking about that we're talking about a man who gives
01:16:10.960
his responsibilities it's good to his family uh etc but he's a leader like like like myself i believe
01:16:16.560
i try my best in my ability to lead my household but does that mean i don't listen to my wife i would
01:16:21.600
so i'll listen to my wife she might have some concerns okay good let me listen to it i'll listen
01:16:24.720
to it and i will categorize and prioritize them yes i'm not going to go and be like okay she wants this
01:16:28.800
ah no no no i'm gonna be okay yeah okay you've told me okay do you get into anything
01:16:34.160
the thing is i just want to make one thing clear when when we say women wants a leader i don't mean
01:16:42.400
that we mean that women should have a boss it doesn't mean your boss i mean your leader leader
01:16:47.840
of the house you make the decisions the decision is yours the last decision comes at the house when
01:16:54.000
you discuss with your wife you make the decision because you're the leader of the house and a lot
01:16:58.080
of people might think that are he's trying to be a boss no that's totally different thing you're
01:17:02.640
a leader of the house that's why you're the husband and you have the last word that you say
01:17:08.160
yeah we do this and we do that you know i mean because a lot of women will twist that i was saying
01:17:12.720
he's a leader wants to be a leader but he's trying to be the boss no you're right i i understand i
01:17:17.840
agree with you but uh the sisters need to also realize that they need to pick their let's let's
01:17:21.360
call it a boss pick your boss either like you don't have no problem going to a career and your boss
01:17:25.440
tells you to do a b c d but when it's your husband who loves you and cares who will die for you
01:17:29.280
your boss will suck you in an instant bye bye he doesn't care bye oh my kids i don't care sorry
01:17:32.880
you're not doing the job for me but that's in another topic but in a nutshell we've concluded
01:17:36.880
some other topic and also it's interesting that i'm very impressed that we have had three things
01:17:42.000
that we picked that the sisters picked which shows alhamdulillah we're in tune alhamdulillah so um
01:17:45.920
brown sisters the next episode we're going to be doing is we as men are we are as men we are going to be
01:17:51.680
um guessing what a woman look for in a husband and then they're going to come and tell us so vice versa
01:17:56.640
inshallah you can watch the episode uh probably after this uh to our next time brown sisters from
01:18:00.880
bitter trip show uh thanks our guests may allah bless them inshallah assalamualaikum warahmatullahi
