The Phenomenon of Spinsterhood: Causes and Treatment
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, one of the brothers sent a question saying: We hope that Honorable Shaykh Salih will answer us on this question, which is the prevalence of spinsterhood among young women in our time. What is the solution and the effective cure so that these young women can get married without remaining unmarried?
Answer:
Yes, when the woman went out, or was taken out, of her proper role in this life, and adopted a path other than the path of women, adopting the path of men or the work of men, she remains unmarried because no one is willing to accept her. And even if she marries, she does not stay with the husband, because the husband wants an obedient wife, a wife with whom he feels at ease, a wife who raises his children and manages the affairs of his home. So if the woman is an employee, or if the woman is in study and goes away...
...she spends most of the day away, and does not come home except when she is tired, and does not pay attention to her husband or her children because of the fatigue. So how can the husband love her in this state?
So if they want women not to remain unmarried, let them return her to her proper role, the one that the believing women were upon from the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). Yes.
