Nurses play such an important role but their is undermined & they are treated as lesser beings than doctors.<BR/><BR/><BR/>As for being a working woman, I too feel that awoman can live her life Islamically, maintain a career & be a good wife & mother. I studied biomedical science, but journalism was a calling & I currently produce & present a radio current affairs programme. I intend lecturing in the life sciences field in the future Inshallah. <BR/>Both professions allow me flexibility as when I get married or when i have children Inshallah I can freelance or if i'm still in radio, just go in to present. And as a lecturer, I can take take on a half-tenure where I only teach a few classes.bb_aishahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11774621498006538323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7047669476288565110.post-53545229037780239712008-10-02T03:07:00.000-07:002008-10-02T03:07:00.000-07:00Well, I believe the profession you are in is one o...Well, I believe the profession you are in is one of the noblest in this world. I would say, nurses play more important role than that of doctors, who usually give orders. May Allah reward you in both the worlds :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7047669476288565110.post-37473905737187010672008-09-21T00:53:00.000-07:002008-09-21T00:53:00.000-07:00May Allah swt accept all your work and provide you...May Allah swt accept all your work and provide you guidance when dealing with your patients. Its not something easy and I really appreciate you giving us your insight and personal experience about your work/career. Judging by your articles, this isn't a simple job that you go in and leave without some type of emotional connection. In a way, it also humbles you and reminds you about the grace and mercy of Allah swt. <BR/><BR/>It also got me thinking, how would it have been like at the time of the Rasool (S) - they had wet nurses to suckle children... but what about those who were of old age? Those who were not in a right state of mind. Have you been able to search from an Islamic perspective to see which parallels that you do as a medical profession and that which Islam has taught us? Sorry it is a bit random haha ... if you find anything I would be interested to know! :) If not then please excuse my randomness!Amaat al Kareemhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10697241433302500526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7047669476288565110.post-39271083145699947342008-09-20T20:16:00.000-07:002008-09-20T20:16:00.000-07:00Jazak'Allah khair for your kind words. Jasmine: I ...Jazak'Allah khair for your kind words. <BR/><BR/>Jasmine: I completely agree with you, there is absolutely no way that you can split the world into male and female. I think that when segregation was prescribed it wasn't prescribed in the extreme context of it. I mean, I can see how free mixing among males and females can lead to fitnah, but as I said I don't think a needle stick or hooking up an IV could cause something like that. Besides, as you said its about intention, and I pray that Allah (SWT) keeps my intentions pure throughout life's journeys, insha'Allah. <BR/><BR/>Salaam: I don't know what happened to my bird post...it kinda just disappeared (maybe I deleted it on accident?) I try to be compassionate in my dealings with people and nature - one can only try. I hope that I don't portray myself as someone that I am not on this blog (apart from the anonymous part). This blog was necessarily to sit here and talk about myself..but more so to have a means of catharsis as this post's title indicates. <BR/>I'm generally not the type of person for whom it easy to sit and talk about feelings, so instead, I use this. Besides, everyone needs some sort of emotional outlet.hijaabified.beautyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05881880956097717407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7047669476288565110.post-29586362669282954182008-09-20T19:12:00.000-07:002008-09-20T19:12:00.000-07:00salaam alaikum,Sometimes a person can look in from...salaam alaikum,<BR/>Sometimes a person can look in from without and observe a pattern that may not be apparent to you. I will be so bold as to say that I observe an irrepressible single motive of compassion and compassionate service across your various posts. Whether you are writing about praying for the baby bird that fell from the tree in that post you took down, your feelings in working with people in the mental ward, or what you choose to notice and observe in this post, Allah (swt) has raised you up to be a formidably good human being, and a commendable example to others.<BR/>If you are as you seem on your blog, then nursing seems like just the right place for you.<BR/>WassalaamSalaamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12452769151951324661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7047669476288565110.post-2248634101423753172008-09-19T18:55:00.000-07:002008-09-19T18:55:00.000-07:00I'm with you and in support of you sister.Forget w...I'm with you and in support of you sister.<BR/><BR/>Forget what these people say: they are just ignorant. People should not be refused care, compassion, kindness or treatment on any basis: race, religion, sex etc - and you cannot split the whole world into male and female: its impossible and unmanageable - we would have two globes, two world economies, two societies...its just...not possible.<BR/><BR/>And to not have a female workforce is crazy as well - there is too much skill and talent to keep at home, and we all of us need to work to maintain a good and peaceful society - males and female. <BR/><BR/>Everything is about intention, and mashaAllah, your intentions are pure and clean...and whosoever sees what you do in any way other than the actions of a good and sincere person, can take a walk. They dont deserve you, you rock...and inshaAllah you will meet someone who shares your mentalitym wisdom and compassion and you can heal the sick together, <BR/><BR/>Peace, love and blessings, <BR/><BR/>MaSalaama, <BR/><BR/>JasmineJasminehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15840296267007752569noreply@blogger.com
