[quote]A very good website, yes we all do understand the directives given by the Quran, that is what a marriage should be the husband a protector and provider and wife staying home fulfilling her responsibilities looking after the children and accepting her husband's authority.
                     In this day and age this is not how it is, more and more women are at work along with their husbands the most common reason being economics, the salary of the husband is not enough to support a household expenditure. In most cases the husband wants his wife to work that is why there is no problem. 
                The you tube clip is showing an environment of women in Europe but in Pakistan or any other third world country this does not exist. there are no state laws saying that so many women should be hired  and even if they are who pays attention to them. women have to be extremely good to be hired at places of responsibility like banks, multinationals hospitals etc. In some places they are even hired at a lower salary than a man. In some places women are constantly sexually harassed from passing rude sexual remarks to even more intimidation,....... a sexual harassment case in Pakistan? unheard of if there are any then you can count them on fingertips. I think you can understand what I am talking about.
              coming back to wives working, I think when a man decides to marry he should be clear in his mind what he expects from his wife and vice versa if he is thinking of marrying a girl who is a high achiever and is inclined towards a career and he expects her to be a stay home wife  then the marriage is starting on the wrong foot. Expectations of a husband from a wife and wife from the husband should be clear from the start. In our country marriages are arranged and it is not just husband and wife but the in laws are there so a lot  is at stake.[/quote]
