Something you should know

Husband Vs Wife

Farah Rahman — Tue, 17 Nov 2009 05:45:31 +0000

Jangan salah faham. Saya tak bergaduh pon dengan Khairy. Nauzubillah, mintak dijauhkan. Gaduh manja sikit2 tu boleh lah sekali sekala. Tak seronok pulak kalau takde fight Dah lama rasanya tak tulis pasal kehidupan selepas menjadi isteri. Alhamdulillah, setakat 8 bulan ni masjid yang kami bina masih berdiri dengan teguh walaupun masih belum punya rezeki untuk menimang cahaya mata. Masing2 masih lagi belajar untuk lebih memahami diri masing2. Masing2 masih tidak boleh berjauhan walaupun untuk seketika Alhamdulillah…..Semalam saya ade terbaca satu artikel yang sangat menarik perhatian saya. Anda pernah tak dengar mana-mana ceramah agama tentang [mungkin di kursus kawin pon ade], SUAMI sepatutnya masak untuk ISTERI, bukan sebaliknya ? Memang sebenarnya kalau menurut Islam, suami yang buat kerja2 rumah, memasak, basuh kain, tukarkan lampin anak, vacuum, cari nafkah, pendek kata segala benda lah! Dan…kerja isteri hanyalah melayan kehendak suami, mencantikkan diri dan berwangi-wangian untuk suami. [kenape? rase macam berat sebelah ke? banyak sangat ke kerja lelaki nak kene buat? tapi, cuba fikir semula? kenapa Tuhan cipta lelaki sebagai ketua? Ketua negara, ketua keluarga? Sebab lelaki lebih kuat dari kaum hawa, lebih gagah perkasa dari kaum hawa yg lemah ni. Jadi, kalau setakat kerja2 rumah, memasak, tukar lampin anak, vacuum sume tu, rasenya tak jadi masalah bagi lelaki kan? kan? kan?]

Tetapi, zaman sekarang ni lain kan?? Itulah die perbezaan antara ADAT MELAYU dengan ajaran Islam. Adat melayu memang sangat typical. Asalkan name die perempuan, mesti akan ditanya, “pandai masak?” ” pandai kemas rumah?” padahal sebenarnya kalau tak reti masak pon tak jadi masalah sebenarnya sebab nanti suami yang akan masak kan untuk kita. Asalkan name perempuan jer mesti kene buat keje2 rumah, jaga anak, tukar lampin anak, memasak, layan suami, macam2 lagi lah walaupun sama2 suami isteri berkerjaya.. Kalau tak buat akan diCOP sebagai isteri pemalas! Kenape ya? Sebab masih ramai yang tak tau dan takde pendedahan tentang ini atau TAU tapi buat-buat TAK TAU dan TAU tapi TAK MAU.

Info tambahan : berkata Said Hawwa” Katanya, “sesungguhnya aku melihat adanya segelintir manusia yang menghairankan aku. Aku melihat mereka melayan isteri masing-masing seolah-olah si isteri itu adalah orang suruhannya. Perlakuan itu beralasankan hak ditaati yang diberikan oleh Islam kepada suami ke atas pihak isteri, dan itu menjadikan si isteri sebagai orang suruhan suaminya.”

dipetik dr : saifulislam.comDan ini pula adalah artikel yang saya ambil dari Cursing Malay – Terus Terang

“Ceramah Pagi : Hubungan Suami Dan Isteri Aku rasa adat kita membentuk bagaimana berkembangnya hubungan suami isteri itu.Isteri dipanggil dengan gelaran “orang rumah”,”suri rumah” atau “tukang masak.”Kalau kita lihat pun,banyak petua2 orang tua yang membuatkan kaum perempuan dilabelkan sebagai “mereka yang bekerja di dapur” dan “tukang masak masakan kegemaran suami.“

Jadi,meh sini aku bagitau korang satu benda penting yang aku belajar daripada kursus kahwin hari tu.Dalam hubungan suami isteri mengikut Islam,tugas-tugas memasak,mengemas rumah,cuci kipas,cat dinding,basuk berak anak,mem-vacuum rumah dan sebagainya..….adalah tugas si Suami.Suami bertanggungjawab memastikan semua benda tu dan fungsi suami adalah “BEKERJA” untuk rumah tangga itu.

Tugas isteri?

Tugas isteri hanyalah taat dan patuh kepada suami serta mencantikkan diri untuk suami (untuk suami dan bukan untuk orang awam,pakai perfume habis satu ofis bau.).Jika seseorang isteri itu enggan memasak atas arahan suaminya,isterinya tidak bersalah kerana itu tugas suami.Isteri ada hak membantu suaminya membuat kerja2 itu jika suaminya memerlukan pertolongan.

Tengok drama,siapa masak?Siapa sapu sampah?Siapa mandikan anak?
Perempuan kan?Itu semua sebab adat kita.Ikut agama lain bang.Nak ikut mana?Kaum lelaki semua,bersedialah untuk belajar memasak dan memakai apron di rumah.Mental aku lepas tau benda tu terus terganggu sekejap.Habis luruh segala pemahaman lama aku pasal tugas suami isteri ni.Ada lah seketika tu aku wish aku ada vagina.

Dan baru lah aku sedar,suami yang menggelarkan isteri mereka orang rumah adalah suami yang tak menunaikan tanggungjawab diorang,sebab lelaki sepatutnya “orang rumah” sesebuah keluarga. “

So apa pendapat korang semua? Boleh ke kita cuba ubah mentaliti masyarakat Melayu macam ni? Kan seronok! [ kalau dapat masak sama2 and buat kerja rumah sama2 sambil pasang muzik kegemaran lagi seronok! ]

“]

Look how dearly tha man is. And look how she look at the man adorably. [mmg boleh mencairkan pompuan kalau lelaki pandai masak ni, serious tak tipu!

man cooking

male cook

he cooks for his lady

cook and eat dinner together

and it'll be more fun if the daddy can teach the kids to cook and have fun in the kitchen. so sweeet...

 ** saya cuba google gamba Melayu. Tapi tak jumpa lagi. Semuanya gambar mat saleh. 
  Mungkin ini salah satu sebab kenapa ramai perempuan Melayu nak kawin dengan mat saleh kot ? kan?

I know mesti ada orang nak cakap and try to judge me, saya tak layak untuk bercakap tentang hal2 hukum Islam. Yelah, tudung tak pakai, rambut kaler2, pakai skirt and seluar pendek keluar rumah, ada hati nak cerita pasal agama, tapi niat saya hanya mahu berkongsi. Saya masih di tahap belajar mendalami Islam. Masih lagi terkapai-kapai dan masih banyak lagi perkara perlu didalami. Belum sempurna sebagai muslimah sejati. But one day, InsyaAllah…Amin~

Perjanjian sebenar kalau Liverfool kalah, Alfiq kene pakai jersey MU Khairy kemudian ambil gambar dia berjersey MU macam orang bersalah nak masuk penjara.

Dan….

Kalau MU kalah Khairy kene lilit kain rentang mini Liverfool di leher (jadikan ala-ala scarf lah) kemudian ambil gambar macam orang bersalah nak masuk penjara.

Tapi, Khairy tak mau. Tak spotting sungguh. Dia masih setia dengan Man United. Sangat setia. [baguskan? sekurang-kurangnya saya tahu dia setia.. ]

Jumpa lagi tahun depan MU & Liverfool!

p/s : I’m Barca fan, the winner. Jadi mmg takde rase ape2 dgn kekalahan ini .
