“But with all of this being said, we need to understand that the role of the Muslim woman is one that needs to be carried out. It needs to be defined clearly and our sisters need to make sure that they are fulfilling their responsibilities to their communities. How do they do that? This is done by raising healthy, well balanced, moral, and well educated families that are going to take over and lead the next generation in building a better future for mankind. They have to remember that nothing should be more important than this. You should not be willing to shirk this responsibility for any reason, as the goal is the betterment of the Ummah, and the spread of that which Allah has chosen for us. Don’t let the world around you distract you from that which is most important. If we look around, we see the results of what happens when we let ourselves become distracted.”
-Abu Abdillah Abdul Lateef
