Xalimos, will you be breaking your back with cooking/cleaning for your house during ramadan?

[Wervelwind]

We all know that Somalis like to cook/prepare a lot for iftar which leads to a lot of cleaning as well
What is your home situation like? The women do all the work while the men chill?

Iftar is 6pm now the real men will be outside working. Good luck to the sisters

Make your own food

As a man I don’t know how you can even watch your mum do that without helping in any way. Nigga speak for yourself

If your sisters/mom also work and you just go home and sit down to eat, you are a xaasid.
I also wonder how these people will be dealt with on the day of judgement. Are they really passing the tests.

Even if your mother/ female relatives don't work, at least do other things, such as offering to clean, shopping and generally being a helpful and clean person. Life is about balance, not about being a selfish leech.

I just cook my own food. My sibs will probs be ordering out. My Aabo likes to cook so he might whip up something. But otherwise my parents are too old and I feel shame. If I want Sambuusa or stuff I just go to the market place.

 

[Gojo Satoru]

Thank god it's just me my mom and sister

I try to help but I get chased out of the kitchen with a wooden spoon. I guess they don’t like my cooking even though my pasta and bolognese is banging

That can be a shared thing among parents

I've had this as well, especially if there are a lot of visitors. The women are always in the kitchen

The shydan is strong in this one

Cleaning? Do not you have a dishwasher?

Cooking is more fun when done as in group activity.

She may not know how to start the dishwasher

 

[𐒋𐒖𐒆𐒔𐒖𐒕𐒈]

She'll pick it up quickly, as she is bright as a button.

Nah I don’t even go near the kitchen when women visitors are in there. I just feel out of place. When the house is just all women I usually just dip and find some shit to do outside
