Both Khaled & Hanah take their faith very seriously , but they're also very western and in touch with modern day society. Hanah having traditional Muslim values, does not mean she's being controlled without a voice or mind of her own.

She said both the man & woman have respect for eachother ie the woman obeys him yes, but not as some slave.. which is what a certain person is trying to troll and imply , it's more about being a good loving wife.

People are forgetting there's plenty of British and American women who's dream is to be a wife and have kids and have a nice house they own , and they will happily cook and do stuff for their husbands, as long as the husband is a good guy and is providing and actually cares about them .

After all despite culture and religion ,a relationship is a 2 way thing, the man has to bring something to the table and actually being a decent human being . I doubt Hanah would marry a low life who treats her badly, she was telling Segun about failed dating experiences she had in the past . She clearly wants to wait for someone special.

That's a really interesting thought. And very informative. There are different beliefs everywhere. Even in the same country or continent. Individually we have our own beliefs. We're not defined by our beliefs. We're all different in our values. No matter where you are or who you are. I would stand by anyone who I believe in, or who needs my support in their ideologies. Sometimes we just can't express it enough.

And it's interesting also to listen to other's thoughts. Hearing different views. I love integration. It's like an amalgamation of minds where we can all learn from one another.

Respect is a two way thing.
