Sisters Unite! Families Unite! Humanity Unite!
A lot of times women complain about how we are treated in the world.
Most of our complaints are valid. I say look to the successful women of
the world. The women men talk about positively and sometimes negatively.
Look to the Oprah Winfrey's the local and national news commentators.
The women who are doctors, attorneys, women in politics, engineering,
science, agriculture, etc. Look to the women who are home with children
teaching and nurturing them to become decent people. All of them have
one thing in common. They did not wait on anyone to approve of them or
what they were doing. They did not sit around complaining. They got busy
helping themselves and others, in shaa Allah!
Many of these women are women of faith. They prayed to Allah (God) and
then got busy. This is what a dear sister who is old enough to be my mom
told me one day when I was whinning about something. "Sister cry if you
must, take it to Allah (God) and then get up from the pray rug and get
busy, real busy." I have learn to do just that very thing. Cry if I
must, take it to Allah (God) and then get real busy.
We must do this women in general and Muslim women in particular. We have
some silly non-sense going on in our communities as it pertains to
women. We can continue to complain and do nothing. Or we can cry, take
it to Allah (God) and get real busy. I pray we choose to get real busy.
We can do anything good we choose to do with the help of Allah (God).
The Baitul Salaam Network, Inc.-International is an organization that is
family centered and oriented. We have men, young people and children
working with us daily. We cry about the ills in our community, take it
to Allah (God) and then get real busy working on the solutions, in shaa
Allah. Many times the solution begins with us. Change individuals for
the better you will see a better world, in shaa Allah.
This is a formal invitation to all to join us around the globe in
working on solutions to our problems. Join us today! Join Baitul Salaam
