We live in the USA and I work full time. And, Allhamdullilah, Insha Allah .. i don't ever forget my duties. So, hot dinners, clean house are all met. With the additions of these guests sometimes the friend (husband's friend) likes to inspect the fridge, walks about the house so I can never take my hijjab off ... even sometimes when I want some time with my husband downstairs ... we think he has gone to sleep but comes up and down the stairs....argh. ... Then to top it off my husband doesn't reprimand him.... he has brought his wife but wife doesn't help too much in the home. The length of stay is 1 month. Allhamdullilah I keep quiet and have asked why quietly... Apparently he is considered one of his brothers. And my dislike is my problem. I am the one with the problem. I am the one who doesn't get it.... Apparently he has done things for him and his family that is so great (what? i don't know) ... What is wrong with this picture? .... I feel we are being taken advantage of ... my husband is extremely patient with him taking him and his wife shopping for 6-7 hours a day... and he isn't a patient man when it comes to shopping... and now they are going for Hajj and my husband and I don't even have enough money to take a vacation..... let alone hajj...I work to pay the living of my family Allhamdullilah... yes, I make more than my husband .... Bottom line I should be inline with my husband thinking that our house is his "brothers" house as well.... What does Islam say about this... ? ... Wassallam UmmMuad. Sallam –
I (wife) am wondering what the Islamic jurisprudence is when my husbands very good friend and his family come and visit for one month from overseas. We live in the USA and I work full time. And, Allhamdullilah, Insha Allah .. i don’t ever forget my duties. So, hot dinners, clean house are all met. With the additions of these guests sometimes the friend (husband’s friend) likes to inspect the fridge, walks about the house so I can never take my hijjab off … even sometimes when I want some time with my husband downstairs … we think he has gone to sleep but comes up and down the stairs….argh. …
Then to top it off my husband doesn’t reprimand him…. he has brought his wife but wife doesn’t help too much in the home. The length of stay is 1 month.
Allhamdullilah I keep quiet and have asked why quietly… Apparently he is considered one of his brothers. And my dislike is my problem. I am the one with the problem. I am the one who doesn’t get it…. Apparently he has done things for him and his family that is so great (what? i don’t know) …

What is wrong with this picture?
…. I feel we are being taken advantage of … my husband is extremely patient with him taking him and his wife shopping for 6-7 hours a day… and he isn’t a patient man when it comes to shopping… and now they are going for Hajj and my husband and I don’t even have enough money to take a vacation….. let alone hajj…I work to pay the living of my family Allhamdullilah… yes, I make more than my husband ….

Bottom line I should be inline with my husband thinking that our house is his “brothers” house as well….

What does Islam say about this… ? …

Wassallam
UmmMuad.
