Raja Azmi said... "A pious wife would not allow her husband to cook"...during a recent tv forum that made many felt was produced to attack Yasmin Ahmad's films.

So here's some feedback for you Raja Azmi.

Norhayati Kaprawi of the rights group Sisters in Islam said that it was inaccurate to say that the religion only permitted women to do housework.

"It is not stated in the Koran that it is only the wife's duty. In fact, the Prophet [Mohammed] sewed his own clothes," she said.

Ahmad Shukri Yusoff, Sharia head at a government agency, also said that the Prophet was known to have helped his wife in the kitchen.

"Entering a kitchen doesn't degrade a man. If anything, it shows how much he loved his wife and it makes the husband-wife relationship more affectionate," he said.


I remembered my mum got so worked out watching the forum.


"Sedangkan Nabi(S.A.W) giling roti dengan Siti Aisyah! Cakap macam betul aje!"

And, as a random blogger mocked...

"Kalau nak jadi isteri soleha, jangan kahwin dengan tukang masak la, tau..."
