Dear Muslim Lady, Be industrious. Work diligently. Acquire beneficial knowledge. Earn good money through lawful means. Own properties. Build businesses. Invest in your health. Invest in valuable assets. Be financially grounded. Develop useful skills. Read widely and continuously. Save consistently. Plan for the future. Avoid unnecessary debts. Support your parents. Take care of your children. Be a blessing to your husband if you are married. Be independent, but never arrogant. Be ambitious, but remain humble. Be confident, but preserve your modesty. Build your intellect as much as you build your appearance. Protect your dignity. Protect your reputation. Choose your friends wisely. Use social media responsibly. Do not measure your worth by likes, comments, or validation from strangers. Have goals bigger than fashion and trends. Contribute positively to your community. Give charity regularly. Help other women rise. Stand for truth and justice. Fear Allah in public and in private. Pray consistently. Recite the Qur'an regularly. Maintain good character. Guard your tongue. Guard your chastity. Guard your heart. Remember that beauty fades, trends change, and wealth can disappear, but faith, character, knowledge, and good deeds remain. Strive to become a woman who is respected not merely for her appearance, but for her faith, intelligence, wisdom, compassion, integrity, and contribution to humanity. May Allah make you among the righteous women of this world and the successful women of the Hereafter. Āmīn.

@DamilolaLizz @ronkecarew May Almighty Allah continue to ease your affairs sis May He uplift you and never leave you to your affairs Sending virtual hug🫂

I’m not a Muslim but I’m a woman who has experienced everything @ronkecarew is trying to say. I moved from where my business was thriving to another city , it was hard starting from scratch and gathering customers. Then I started seeing financial abuse in play (1)

The responses to my last post confirmed exactly what I was talking about. "If she has her own money she will disrespect her husband." Let that sentence sink in. Read it again. That is not a statement about money. That is a confession. You are telling me that the only reason your wife respects you is because she is broke. That her loyalty is not built on love, deen, or character it is built on dependency. That is not a marriage. That is a hostage situation with a nikah certificate. If a woman's respect for you disappears the moment she has financial power, the problem was never her money. The problem is you. You built a marriage on control, not on Allah-conscious partnership, and now you are terrified of what happens when the leverage disappears. Khadijah (RA) was richer than the Prophet ﷺ before he married her. Did her wealth make her disrespectful? Did it make her disobedient? No. It made her one of the most honored women in Islamic history, and the Prophet ﷺ never once treated her wealth as a threat to his authority. So if a woman with money is dangerous to your home, ask yourself what kind of home you actually built. Stop hiding insecurity behind religion. Allah did not tell women to stay poor for the sake of male comfort. Men did. And they have been getting away with it because women were too afraid to call it what it is. I am done being polite about this. The truth has been spoken.

@Aeesh242 Ameen ma

@muminattaofeek God bless you ma'am

There is a particular kind of manipulation that thrives in Nigerian Muslim communities and it has been so normalized that most women do not even recognize it when it is happening to them. It sounds like this: "A woman who chases money will forget her home." "Financial independence will make her arrogant." "She doesn't need to work, that is the man's responsibility." And because it is delivered wrapped in religion, most women swallow it whole. But here is what nobody tells you that is not Islam. That is insecurity dressed in a jalabiya. The Quran gave women property rights over 1400 years ago when Europe had not even conceptualized the idea. Khadijah (RA) was one of the wealthiest merchants in Mecca. She employed the Prophet ﷺ before he became a Prophet. Her financial power never made her less of a wife, less of a Muslimah, or less of a woman. It made her one of the greatest human beings to ever walk this earth. So when did we decide that a woman knowing her money is a threat? I will tell you when. The moment men realized that a woman with options is a woman they cannot manipulate. Financial dependency is not modesty. It is a control mechanism. And we have been conditioned to protect it by calling it deen. I have always believed that money is not a man's conversation it is a human necessity. And as a Muslim woman specifically, understanding wealth is not rebellion. It is your right. It is your protection. It is quite literally built into your religion. Nobody should have to be Beg for maintenance, stay in a toxic marriage because they cannot afford to leave, or shrink their ambitions because a man's ego is more comfortable with their ignorance. Women like @ronkecarew exist in this space and remind me that this is not a radical opinion. It is simply what happens when you actually read when you go back to the source instead of inheriting somebody's cultural anxiety and calling it faith. Know your deen. Own your money. They were never in conflict to begin with. 🤍

@Nda_farooq @YusufTechLab @GrowthStacks You don't need to tell a sensible, responsible woman to do her responsibility So again, remove the mindset of if she has her money she won't be submissive

@YusufTechLab @GrowthStacks @muminattaofeek It's extremely difficult. That's why while advocating for financial independence based on what they are saying, she should know that she is still under her husband.

@z_beee Yes, exactly By their word you shall know them

Beautifully said Sis. Some have mastered the art of manipulation and gaslighting. The concept of a woman working/having money does not make sense or appeal to some because of their evil intentions masked under 'she won't be submissive anymore'.

@YusufTechLab Can you also behave to her like the prophet (Saw) did to her?

@muminattaofeek But can you behavior the way prophet wife behavior to him ?

What does the word "submission" means to you? Let's start from there

@MOA_Lifestyle 😊😊

@muminattaofeek I get excited when I see people who bear same name as me

@YusufTechLab @GrowthStacks Lol,for your mind. Again this is insecurity dressed as a deen

@GrowthStacks @muminattaofeek A woman can never be submissive to her husband if she is richer than him

@GrowthStacks Yes, you are right for this,too

@muminattaofeek Allahuma Baarik for this piece. But in my humble opinion it's not complete. "Real men" never look at a woman's money and are never intimidated by it, ever. Already you know that Islam enjoins men to keep giving her even if she earns more than him. That said...continue..

@Uzumaki_Narutok Ameen 😊

@Vincentotito I really need this. I sucks at reviewing my expenses

I can spend 200k naira in a day and think I only spent 60k–100k. I am bad at remembering expenses. So what I started doing was writing down every amount I spent. But I stopped after 3 days, it was hard to stay consistent. So I decided to use my AI automation skill to build a Telegram bot that does the work for me. Now, immediately I buy something, I type it there and it records it in a spreadsheet. It also tells me the total amount spent. daily, weekly, and even monthly. Whenever I buy something else, it adds it and tells me the running total for the day. This helps me control my spending. Been using this for 2 weeks now. And I love it. You can build yours too. If I get people who are interested, I'll create a guide on it. Just let me know in the comments.

@ronkecarew @AdekemiSaliu Very very sick Most of them are dealing with a lot of insecurities and missing culture with deen

@AdekemiSaliu I actually don't know many of them to be honest, but it's good we had the opportunity to get the nuisance out. They are sick and useless.

Those boys are messy, I have sensed their BS from afar and blocked everyone of them I'm aware of, they're hypocrites, there's no low they can't go to just to get at someone, imagine shaming a successful woman with her divorce trauma? Please come back when you're

@IsholaSamiat @AdamsAh89818789 I love this comment There is indeed a challenge upstairs 😂😂

@AdamsAh89818789 Better ask God for forgiveness It’s haram to be financially independent??? There’s a challenge upstairs, my dear brother

According to the core tenets of Islam it is actually haram for married Muslim sisters to be financially independent. If your husband actively takes care of your provision then why do you need to work? The role of a married woman in Islam is to be a full time house wife.

My Sister's especially Muslim Sisters, Tag me to your Hustle and Businesses, let me begin to share with a wider audience. It's now so clear that you all need this financial Independence like yesterday. Ema je Kan je yin maye o. A woman can and should be successful. If my value does not align with yours, kindly block me in advance. I Hate poverty with everything in Me especially in ladies. Poverty rubs you of your dignity as a woman and human , Fight it with everything in you Start Reading books on Finance and investing, You can be rich and extremely so too as a woman. You can use the money to promote Dawah and free yourselves from abuse. I will never stop talking about it. Irresponsible Men, please block me in advance, you won't be missed
