I love these podcasts. Keep releasing these episodes they’re extremely beneficial to those who want to learn more about the different perspectives that exist regarding marriage and relationships!
I’m a revert Muslimah but surely there’s a difference between gheera and insecurity? I’ve heard this term a lot but in some situations it looks like the person isn’t secure in their marriage and they have trust issues. Correct me if I’m wrong since I am still learning jazakallah.
@@MairahCrescent You’re exactly right.. Like Yahya mentioned, sometimes the husband has a wandering gaze and thinks his wife is like him.. because of that he restricts his wife in things that are permissible, due to insecurity. But gheerah generally is a praiseworthy trait when the man protects his womenfolk from things that are haram.
@@ZawajCards Jazakallah for the response. It really helped clear things up. Extremely grateful for this channel. It answers a lot of questions I wonder about and sometimes may not get the answers too.
@@ZawajCards I don’t think the need is greater though, for example women may not have the space at home to workout especially if they live with in laws or if they live in a shared space, or if there’s no privacy at home/in the garden from the neighbours (as is my situation and my bedroom is way to small to workout the way I want to), but for men it’s easier regardless of where you are. The need is just as much 😂
@@ZawajCardsRespectfully disagree. The ruling of free-mixing / attending free-mixing gyms/ etc is not different to a man vs woman. Now when it comes to “work” that’s different but to say it applies to gyms too is not true. Even with work, some scholars say it still isn’t permissible. If a man really wants to workout and there isn’t a male-only gym available then he could create a home gym. If he wants resistance training equipment there’s enough things on FB Marketplace/ & online for him to get what he needs. It’s not a necessity for him to workout in a mixed gym. The same applies to a female. I’m not trying to make the comparison between a man and a woman but it’s statements like this that allows Muslims to fall into “feminism” & “red pill” ideologies.
@@SA-dl6su Let me give you a scenario: Woman enters gym, ratio around 8:2 sometimes even 9:1 in workout areas of men to women. She instantly stands out and her clothing will reveal things due to the type of workouts being done. She lowers her gaze but that doesn’t stop people from looking at her. Issue here is people looking at her. (Tabarruj is a MAJOR sin) Man walks into gym and there may be 1 or 2 women in the workout area. Generally male dominated area, he uses the bench press or whichever machine he needs to and lowers his gaze. Completely different scenarios for both men and women, not saying either is correct, but with one potentially being a major sin- it’s definitely not the same thing. I would actually say in work place environments free-mixing would be more similar for men and women, and Allah knows best. I hope that gives a clearer picture of what was meant by the difference in going gym between men and women.
