A lot of the times nowadays you have
many feminists who talk and it's open. They
say, I don't need to be intimate. What's
the issue? Well, in the eyes of Allah,
there is an issue that this whole issue
of you getting married is in order to
be able to do certain things in a
halal way. If you are going to block
that, you're defying the entire purpose of the
whole marriage. Why did you get married in
the first place? So you would be held
liable in the eyes of Allah. Similarly, if
it was the opposite way around, women would
cry foul to say, listen, this guy is
not satisfying me. We've had hundreds of cases
come to our he's not satisfying me. This
guy is like this. He's like that. He's
gay or whatever they say. End of the
day, we have to tell him, hey, listen,
you need to fulfill the rights. Why is
it that when it's the other way around,
we think it's okay. He needs to fulfill
my rights, but I don't need to fulfill
his rights. What do you mean? It goes
2 ways. Habibi, it goes 2 ways. And
this is such a topic. People don't talk
about it. If there is any woman out
there who thinks that I just have a
choice completely in Islam, then unfortunately the Islam
you're following is not the same Islam that
came with the Prophet
