Should men be encouraged to do chores in the house and do the

00:00:04 --> 00:00:10

cooking and everything now, purely from a sunnah perspective? Helping

00:00:11 --> 00:00:16

is there helping the spouse and so on? So definitely so as far as

00:00:16 --> 00:00:20

possible I just don't see any Hadith enrich the prophets Allah

00:00:20 --> 00:00:24

was cooked the meal. From what I understand that he used to come

00:00:24 --> 00:00:30

and say to the, his, his wife, or the Allahu anha that is there any

00:00:30 --> 00:00:34

food in the house, and if there wasn't, then he just fast. So I'm

00:00:34 --> 00:00:37

understanding that the food he didn't really take well, but their

00:00:37 --> 00:00:40

food was simple, right? Anyway, that doesn't mean that you can't

00:00:40 --> 00:00:45

help in the house. If the husband is doing enough, and the wife is

00:00:45 --> 00:00:48

doing her share and husband is doing a shed and can understand

00:00:48 --> 00:00:51

that the roles are divided like I'll yridians role was outside the

00:00:51 --> 00:00:55

house, Fatima Dylan's role was inside the house. However, now

00:00:55 --> 00:00:58

that we're all at home, and if you're not doing much anyway, then

00:00:58 --> 00:01:01

it's a good idea that you help, especially since more people are

00:01:01 --> 00:01:03

going to be in the house, there's going to be a greater burden. So

00:01:03 --> 00:01:08

help with the folding of the laundry with maybe putting it out

00:01:08 --> 00:01:12

maybe with ironing. Maybe you don't have to what they call Phil

00:01:12 --> 00:01:17

the services, right? I actually tried to do that yesterday but got

00:01:17 --> 00:01:19

a bit frustrated because I couldn't make them proper

00:01:19 --> 00:01:23

triangle, right? In the right way. But I did try. I did make an

00:01:23 --> 00:01:29

effort. And but no, I thought that was not for me. So so I tried to

00:01:29 --> 00:01:30

do other things.
