Assalamualaikum

Do you think women to acquire higher education if the institute is co-education?

After education should women do reputed jobs like scientists, journalists, doctors, govt officers even if they have to interact with men but they can do the job wearing hijab?

Should women prefer jobs like teachers,gynacologists, cooks?

Would you permit your sisters or wife to do such jobs?
We might have different opinions I just want to know what our muslim brothers sisters think about it.

I really don't care. Seriously it's not something I really care about anymore. Go into whatever profession you want. Won't affect me.

Must I need to repeat myself for the slow toddlers! I said I don't care about women's career ambitions. That's my opinion which is not reflected in the poll. DUH!

As for the topic, it's interesting. I do care about the topic itself.

I will throw a stone at an Israeli tank!

I am not toddler but sister in islam to you, if it is ok. Ok you doesn´t care at all about this matter - thanks to answering by so clear way.

If you like to go to throw stone against zionist tanks then that is great from you. I have been human right worker over 25 years, speciality to issues of Palestine. I might have enough contacts that you could get to throw even one stone against tanks. And this my comment was totally off topic.

I think I touched a nerve. All I'm saying is women should do whatever job they want to do. It does not concern me. This opinion is not reflected in the poll.

I think just as you are thinking. Women as well men should do the work they are the best. Some women might be clever in one field, some in others.
 
Women should do reputed jobs. In many countries they tend to get better grades than men. however they should stay away from driving. :-)

Which are reputed jobs? A cosmonaunt? There isn´t very much fitnah in the outer space.

I would prefer my wife being home with the kids. If I and my wife are working, who will raise the children as muslims? The television?

What if you raise your children? What if your wife works and you stay at home raising kids?

I voted "I am a sis. I think women should do reputed jobs"

My life-long ambition was to become a cardiac surgeon or a neuro surgeon, and I was dead set upon it, my heart, soul and mind. The amount of studying, researching, learning I put into this goal... But :Allah::swt: had greater, better and bigger plans for me :)

I don't think there's anything wrong in having a reputed job/career, as long as the Sister is aware of her Hijaab and abides by it then it should be OK. It may be hard in the workplace but once the reasoning as to why a Sister can't shake hands with males and vice versa, why a male/female can't be alone in a room with the opposite gender etc. is explained, it should be fine, and the employees should respect that, obviously they'll be asking questions and be curious, but that shouldn't affect the Sister from her career/job therefore she should perform 100%. Of course, there are exceptions, but that's my thought.

I was torn between wanting to work and wanting to stay at home, but then I decided I want to work after marriage and study too, I asked my husband and he replied affirmative he will let me work and study and support me in whatever decision I ended up with, once I had made my mind up.

I am working but soon In Sha Allaah, I shall open up my own business!!! My own, not my husband's, he's got his own thing, but MY OWN!!! I'm so excited!!!

Khadijah :raha: is my role model, as she had her own successful business too :alhamd:

Please make Du'a.

Ma Salama

I have worked as business woman using hijab, spokeswoman using hijab, web designer using hijab, teacher using hijab, social worker using hijab, librarian using, human right worker using hijab ...

Have it sometime caused fitnah? Last time I was a cook using hijab - even a chef of the kitchen by hijab. Other cooks were brothers. I was a boss. With no problems.

:D Yup we made tasty food.

I dont have any problem with it. I wrote "prefer". ;) In fact I think it would be much easier to do the home chores + raising the kids. :D but I would be bored to death without challenges. I would maybe start a business along with raising the children.

This question is highly subjective as answers will vary according to time, place and situation.
 
I know many couples in the US where both parents work, but they are off-schedule from each other. They are doing an excellent job raising their children with extremely limited outside help.

As to occupations, I work in research and have the luxury of an office. While I supervise and work with men, it is generally considered improper for us to be in any room alone. On the rare times when I do need a closed door, each office and room has a window wall so there is no physical privacy. (But I have a shade I can close to pray in private.)
