*ADVICE OF A SUCCESSFUL WOMAN*
*"Patience is the key to relief."*
A modern mother offered her daughter the following advice, accompanied with a smiles and tears:
O' my daughter, you are about to embark on a new life - a life in which there is no room for your father and mother, or for any of your brothers and sisters. In this new life , you will become a companion to your husbands who will not want to share you with anyone, nor even your own flesh and blood.
Be a wife to him and a mother. Make him feel that you are everything to him in this life. Always remember that a man, any man, is a big child and any sweet word will make him happy. Do not make him feel that by marrying you he has deprived you of your own family, for he is experiencing similar feelings himself. He has also left his parents' house and left his family for your sake. But the difference between him and you is the difference between man and woman: a woman always longs for her family and the house in which she was born and grew up. But she has to resign herself to this new life and adapt to living with this man who has become her husband and who will be the father of her children... this is your new world.
My daughter! This is your present and your future, this is your family which you and your husband will make together. I am not asking you to forget your father and mother and siblings, because they will never forget you. How can a mother forget the child who is the apple of her eye? But I am asking you to love your husband and live with him and be happy in your life with him.
*"Learn patience from Āsiyah, loyalty from Khadījah, sincerity from 'Ā'ishah and steadfastness from Fātimah."*
