I love reading this entry. Barakallahu feeki❤️ Unfortunately, mine is opposite of how you describe your father however, I believe that it is stereotypical and I also believe a man who truly understands our religion would be like how your Father treats you all. This might be my test but I entrust to Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala of the wisdom behind it and soon become a mother that can break this generational curse. May Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala bless you and your family. Ameen.

Salaam Ameera,

Thanks for your kind words — I really appreciate them! I agree, when the Sunnah of our Prophet (SAW) is practiced in real life, the result is God-fearing men who treat their womenfolk and society with gentleness and compassion. I should have prefaced this post by noting that I am fully aware that not *all* Muslim men are like; unfortunately, there are men who don't meet the mark or show up for the ones that they are responsible for. I am so sorry for the struggles you might be going through / have went through due to this and make sincere dua that Allah empowers you to break generational curses as you mentioned and flourish iA! <3
