Just a piece of advice Akhi: you don’t have to pinpoint in your videos that you have an African wife. We see it n quite frankly what is important is that its wife no matter what her ethnic group is. Just say my wife not African wife subhanaAllah.
I think he is saying it because there are certain values that she was taught in Africa. I am honestly surprised because although miles apart I sort of thought that everyone understands marriage to be this type of partnership that requires the wife to be humbled.
I’m an Africans woman I live in America. I never act like that and I will never be like that. I will still be like I’m African woman taught by my good mother to respect husband.
I think that goes both ways. I am American (black) and my husband is Australian. I waited a long time to get married because I didn't want to settle or be mistreated. It seems that in Western society, women who grew up in traditional households that you described are overlooked. We are perceived as frumpy because we cover up, and old-fashioned because we know how to cook and clean. When you are respectful, feminine, living an upright lifestyle, some men are looking for a certain type (hair, nails, lashes etc). That's just my experience. I am happily married now and we live traditional gender roles.
With all the due respect, covering up means nothing. I used to live in chicago amongst a majority arab/muslim community qnd i’ve seen what some hijabis women (both married and single) are able to do. I was left speechless. Lots of people in Muslim communities equate covering up with being pious. You don’t have to put a scarf on to be a good woman/person. I don’t cover my hair and the majority of the married women I personally know don’t, yet they are very good wives, amazing mothers etc. this is not to say that all covered women are no good.
Couldn’t agree more. I’m the same way, I grew up in the west but I’m traditional and come from a traditional Muslim family. Been overlooked my whole life 😂. But to be fair I’m only 22, so I was overlooked in like university and stuff where guys wanted girlfriends for fun so perhaps they did me a favour lol.
Much love to you and your wife. The truth is women were not placed on earth for the sole purpose of submitting to men, cooking and cleaning for them and bearing their children. Women are human beings just like any other human being and you can work in partnership together as equals, mutually serving and respecting each other in love, not one submitting and the other being a master. All the best.
You are the reason why men move to other countries to find a wife. You literally missed the whole point of the video because you were so fixated in the word "Submission"
In your countries or in your families but we as Africans we have to respect and obey submissive to our men or call them husbands and we are happy doing it not all but few who were brought up being told soo ❤❤❤

I am from East Africa and have been married to my North African husband for 18 years MashaAllah. Mixed marriage based on the love of Allah SWT, respect, honesty and traditional values. 4 beautiful children Alhamdulilah.

So many people getting problems because of the eyes. May Allah SWT protect you and bless you.
About the cooking and cleaning, I don’t quite agree with that. Yes, a woman should know how to do housework, and a man should know how to do it as well. He should be able to help her out in the kitchen, not just expect her to do it without him doing anything.
Well it is not as if the husband does "nothing". He provides for her with food, housing, clothes and safety. And in turn she serves her husband, takes care of the house and the children.

When I met my husband he didn’t have a car. He was a very talented long distance runner though. I loved his heart. Also we didn’t even go out to dinner until after we got married. I cooked everything. But that’s just who I am as a person. We got married 12 years ago. I wouldn’t trade it. He’s very successful in his career and he bought me two houses. I didn’t expect it, but when you love someone they are inspired to do their best in everything.
By the way obey the husband doesn't mean he takes advantage of her or controls her every move. She obeys him to keep their bond strong and their family etc and where she is having all her rights fulfilled at same time.
Look, I am not a Muslim. However, I think the videos you chose as examples t are to the extreme. That’s not fair. I am so happy that you both found each other.

When your husbands works full time and provides. At least have the decency to do basic housework. If she’s not working and mainly at home, why not cook and clean and take care of hubby? Yes hubbys also help, but it’s not a competition.
@@ZazezooI agree Honestly I have a great job and make great money at my corporate job. My mom and dad are traditional couples and when I am married,I would rather stay home cook healthy food for my husband and kids and be a housewife. As an African who grew up partly in Africa and the US, still struggle to fit in the the US 😞
@@Zazezoo ya if she is a housewife it’s fine if she do it !just saying if both working and only the women do everything house work plus outside work but if she is a housewife agree with u
But the man can also say that earning and providing is not my job! Allah has made both partners equal but given different roles. Women can multitask, and has qualities and required skills for becoming good homemakers. I hear so many working women complaining about their male colleagues flirting with them, and they feel guilty for neglecting their home and kids. Isn’t it much better to let men go out and earn, which is what nature intended.
@@lanatube6070I understand you. I am married, my husband and I work. He got someone to come to our house once a week to do the major cleaning around the house including laundry. He drops me off and from work each day and when I am home I cook and clean for him, and he assists sometimes too. When I am too tired to cook, we order out or he does the cooking. Like someone said, no competition, just try to always be nice and considerate of each other.😊
The amount of material wealth a husband can provide depends on how much wealth he has to offer. If a woman grew up with material wealth, and has acquired even more wealth due to her own efforts, it is not likely that a poor man will be an acceptable marriage partner for her. Liking nice, expensive things, in and of itself, does not necessarily make one a bad person. I am happy that he found a suitale spouse. May God grant them a long, happy, fruitful marriage.
Sorry, but it's not that they come from rich family and they ask for same lifestyle... People from worst conditions expect things like 200k car, 1.5M house and a yacht in countries like Croatia. So, it's not that you are raised as rich, you're just delusional if you ask for that as leftover woman or average at best.
I don't know what it's like in Canada, but here in the U.S., inflation is insane. It cost a lot more to live now than it did back-in-the-day -- even in smaller towns. I can agree that submission has a bad rap. However, this is mostly due to men expecting women to do everything (cook, clean, take care of the kids) -- and go 50/50 -- while the man has a crappy job and can't provide. Man fail to carry their weight. Men have an economic advantage over women and should know how to make money.
Thank you for a refreshing honest video. Everything you say is true. This is how our world has become. All about money and status and the family life is now disorganized as a result of this. It is wonderful that the two of you have found each other and both share the same good values. Many blessings to you both. 🙏
I’m an American Muslim and I had not good experiences with American men. I’m a traditional woman but I felt it’s not much traditional men or men that hold their religious close. I decided to look outside of America and I’m now married to an African Muslim.
Alhamdulillah Im African Caribbean from the UK. I married with an Egyptian and we live in Ghana. I love to obey my husband and be a traditional wife Alhamdulillah.
You are a lovely couple. My husband and I are black carribean catholics living in America. I enjoy cooking ank keeping my house, but it is not the only goal of my existence. My husband also takes turns doing these tasks. When it comes to making decisions for our family, we discuss it, and both learn to see things from different angles. We pray together and try to grow to grow together in wisdom with the help of God. God bless your couple.
I enjoyed watching this. Truth is a lot of family values have been lost in the modern era and it's actually refreshing to see those who uphold them! Christianity also advocates for wives to be submissive to their own husbands. It's pretty sad that some interpret it the way they want and not the way God said. All in all, the best marriages out there are between people with shared values of love and respect 🙏 ❤
This is the best video I’ve ever watched on UA-cam ❤️ I love how you are honest about the real word, I’m glad you’re happy with your wife, please ignore all negative comments 🥰🥰
English born British revert Muslim alhumdulilah. Found my wife in Indonesia. She is traditional, feminine, shy, loyal and trustworthy. Hard to find all those qualities in women born in the west. Unfortunately, many Muslim women also in the West lack traditional qualities.
@@otiliamanuelajurj needless to say that a man also has to display and carry out actions befitting of a good husband. But the topic of the video is about looking for a wife, not a husband
Very interesting video. I met my partner in Church. I never choose him .God did it and it has been a blessing relationship . I do clean and cook but he also help me everyday. Woman and man were made to support each other ❤
Thanks Mahdi for sharing your intentions to marry from abroad. I wish you and Zainab a very happy marriage. You have very good reasons as a moslem man to make this decision because in that way you're sure you have what you want in a woman. With that said, not all African women are like Zainab. This is the beginning of your journey, just as in every marriage, there are going to be challenges ahead. In sha Allah when babies start arriving, it will become practically impossible for Zainab to provide you with the same amount of care, one of the reasons why you married her in the first place. In fact, she may need support no matter how small to keep up with all her responsibilities. Even at this stage, many men still demand the same amount of care from their wives, making such women extremely exhausted. When, that time comes, I think it would be nice to waive some of your rights because caring for kids, taking care of the house are exhausting in addition to completely satisfying a man"s rights can be overwhelming when she gets no help from other family members
Don’t get so attached to “social media” relationships please. Wish them the best and go make sure your relationship with the CREATOR is where it should be because as you may or may not know, sometimes these relationships aren’t what they seem when the 10 minute clips are over… wishing them the best
Its very sickening & i am Carribbean. I agree with you completely. My mom & dad was married 61 years...Its so dam shameful......Its why my grandsons will be exposed to African & Carribbean culture. The West is out of control.....
@@benitabettard9664Yes that's true, but we're not demanding $50,000.00 rings and cars and all this foolishness... Yes it's imperfect, but it's much better.

My Ghanaian🇬🇭 sister I'm so happy for you you know tradition in Ghana here we should respect our husband 🙏🏽 ❤wishing you happy marriage and please take care of yourself and take good care of your husband
Mauritania in Africa 100% Muslim but 75% divorce rate. Highest divorce rate in the world. I agree that you are more likely to find a wife outside America that are closer to what you desire. But there is also just an issue of the human heart.
No country has 100% Muslim… SubhanAllah They are predominantly Muslim and you should look for the reason for divorce. Also, divorced women over there are highly desirable. So they are doing well than average Americans.
"DIVORCE" their you go which means there was a no hookup and slutty behaviour and the relationship was marriage, divorce is not bad, it can still be done with mutual respect... ISLAM doesn't prohibit divorce, if things don't work out it is a valid option....
Can you please tell me where you got those statistics from. Find it hard to believe. Especially as accurate stats are hard to obtain in such a remote please like Mauritania.
I am a Christian from the RepublicofTrinidad and Tobago.and l truly am happy for you and your wife The two shall be one God has heard your prayerandgiven you both the desire of your heart may God continue to bless your union andkeep you both Until death do you part.
Works both ways....Guys mistreat their wives both Muslim and non muslim so own up to it. Now women are reacting for how their mons have been mistreated. Respect works both ways man!
I don't have to agree with everything, but I so enjoy watching you two. You are a beautiful couple, and your happiness is contagious 😊❤ Blessings upon you both!
As an African-American woman, I completely agree with you and I was so blessed to find my Korean American husband that has morals and values. I appreciate in the beginning when you said “I am not trying to be disrespectful. I am just stating facts “because in America people try to be offensive for clicks and ratings, but I’m so happy for you and your wife.
I am an African-American woman. I took my Shahada July 3rd 2024 and my 9-year-old son took his Shahada July 6th. My parents were not Muslim, but they grew up in the 70s with the Black panther party. So I know my culture before we were slaves we were Kings, Queens and rulers. A lot of us African-American Muslim women do not act like those videos posted for examples. America is HUGE! You have not met all of us. Those type of women disgust me! Those type of women are brainwashed and they will never wake up. Allah has brought you a beautiful wife and to your wife your voice is amazing when you sing🎉 as an African-American Muslim woman, my mom has traditional values and is a very feminine, loving, caring, submissive and clean woman. She taught me everything I needed to know to be a good wife. I knew Islam was for me and there are so many corrupt Muslim men here no matter if they were born in Islam or not. So yes, my teacher teaches us the Quran and what a good Muslim man is so we won't be led astray. I love you too together and I see pure love. Alhumdulillah
That's true I a Muslim living in canada and couldn't find a Muslim then ending up with different religions person finally the relationship goes very bad. I don't mean the other religion is bad but,better to be same.
I tolally agree in your words, more importantly you raised a stage of Mt. Everest, that is the place I belong to. Stay happy and with strong bond with your wife always!
Salaam l am a revert to Islam. l am an American women l am married to someone is not from America. I was also raised to respect myself and whenever l do get married to be submissive to my husband.. and to always be respectful to my husband and l do wear full hijab cover myself. l already have been covered my whole life . l born in the 60’s so mothers and father back then taught their children how to dress and be respectful. So not all Americans women are materialistic just these new generation that haven’t been taught to be respectful and to show young women how to be a lady. Most of these young women truly are not married material and they’ll learn the hard way someday. So my brother and sister l am so happy to see your both stay blessed. I love your UA-cam channel keep us informed In’sha’Allah
I think you made a good decision in finding a traditional wife abroad. I lived in Uk and my husband is from uae but traditional women are hard to find in UK even though there might be some hidden away like I was. Alhamdulillah for everything
Wow we have been craving for your next video but alhamdulila we don't have regrets this is so far the best you have given us the best reason as to why you went all the way to Africa to find your wife I know Zainab will comfort , love,cherish and above all obey you cause this is what she was tought.May Allah bless your marriage insha'Allah.
I'm a Christian woman that was born and raised in the U.S. My roots are from East Africa. I'm glad that you two found each other in a world of 6 billion. I totally understand your point of view. It's sad to see the West become what it is today. I don't agree with a lot of their thinking and refuse to conform to societal norms. People's lack of values, moral, integrity, and being a devoted (insert any religion here) is slowly diminishing.
Senegal in the house! We are so proud of both of you. Keep it up! May Allah bless your marriage and reward you with goodness in both worlds. amen. Stay strong and blessed!
This is beautiful! Inshallah all will be open minded enough to listen! I am a Catholic woman and traditional from the Caribbean. I take great pride in obeying, loving and caring and cooking for my husband. Islam is a beautiful and blessed practice. In my country we celebrate Christianity, Hinduism and Islam 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Even here in Nigeria we have wicked and ungrateful Husbands, which they don't appreciate their wives. A wife will do and over do domestic work. Cook, wash his underwears. All in vain the outcome is negative. Is only God that can reward. Happy married life to u Mahdi and Zainab ❤
Sis there are two sides to every story. Yes, he shows the "hijabis" who appear materialistic in the western world but the men are also not very different in that they are not faithful. I am not Muslim (but studying) but my husband is. I am in a FB group of Muslim women from all over the world. They have their own set of challenges with Muslim men, that when I read their posts, it makes me want to cry. They take alot without much reward, recognition or appreciation from their husbands. The husbands take second and third wives #secretly; they beat their wives; they withdraw intimacy from their wives while indulging in pornography or much infidelity - so Muslim men are not so perfect either. When a hijabi sees this, what would make her want to marry? BUT, al hamdullah, I am so happy for this couple. I thank Allah for their YT success and pray that they continue to grow and prosper in their marriage and their channel. It's something very special about this couple that Allah allows their videos to have many positive eyes. Don't forget to like and subscribe to their channel.
Wow. It seems we live in different world. I am Nigerian but I have a very good experience of our men. Just try to get a responsible Nigerian man to marry as it is applicable around the world, dont go for the pookies amongst us. Also, don't ignore the red flags during your dating period.
Hi I’m Zainab, I moved to Morocco because I was in a horrible relationship with a rich narcissist for 7 years . I didn’t know any better. I wanted a real man . I reverted to Islam & I got married to a Moroccan man but it did work out due to cultural differences , age difference and I had some flaws and he wasn’t perfect. Plus his family was nasty to me. We agreed to move on alhamdulilah. Now I’m back here in the states I have 2 children and I try my best to be a good Muslim mother ❤️ Inshallah I have the real Muslim righteous man will find me. ✨ P.s new subscriber

You two are happy together, that's what matters. Thanks for your honesty. Zainab my daughter, do not change as you get more comfortable in your marriage. A lot of women make that mistake. You have a lovely husband. God bless you both. 💕 💕

Women can multitask, and has qualities and required skills for becoming good homemakers. I hear so many working women complaining about their male colleagues flirting with them, and they feel guilty for neglecting their home and kids. Isn’t it much better to let men go out and earn, which is what nature intended.
@@lanatube6070I understand you. I am married, my husband and I work. He got someone to come to our house once a week to do the major cleaning around the house including laundry. He drops me off and from work each day and when I am home I cook and clean for him, and he assists sometimes too. When I am too tired to cook, we order out or he does the cooking. Like someone said, no competition, just try to always be nice and considerate of each other.😊
My brother, quite frankly, you thought very carefully about marrying an African woman. You made a very good analysis.
The amount of material wealth a husband can provide depends on how much wealth he has to offer. If a woman grew up with material wealth, and has acquired even more wealth due to her own efforts, it is not likely that a poor man will be an acceptable marriage partner for her. Liking nice, expensive things, in and of itself, does not necessarily make one a bad person. I am happy that he found a suitale spouse. May God grant them a long, happy, fruitful marriage.
What’s material wealth to you, how long do you think you can keep the wealth.
Sorry, but it's not that they come from rich family and they ask for same lifestyle... People from worst conditions expect things like 200k car, 1.5M house and a yacht in countries like Croatia. So, it's not that you are raised as rich, you're just delusional if you ask for that as leftover woman or average at best.
@@rockerma1987 the language you use to describe women is very telling.
@@thefeminineeye You mean, the truth?
sure buddy. Whatevr helps you sleep at night
I don't know what it's like in Canada, but here in the U.S., inflation is insane. It cost a lot more to live now than it did back-in-the-day -- even in smaller towns. I can agree that submission has a bad rap. However, this is mostly due to men expecting women to do everything (cook, clean, take care of the kids) -- and go 50/50 -- while the man has a crappy job and can't provide. Man fail to carry their weight. Men have an economic advantage over women and should know how to make money.
Finally another video from a lovely husband and wife
Thank you for a refreshing honest video. Everything you say is true. This is how our world has become. All about money and status and the family life is now disorganized as a result of this. It is wonderful that the two of you have found each other and both share the same good values. Many blessings to you both. 🙏
Thanks for the video hope to see you soon my favorite couple.greetings from 🇺🇬we love you
I’m an American Muslim and I had not good experiences with American men. I’m a traditional woman but I felt it’s not much traditional men or men that hold their religious close. I decided to look outside of America and I’m now married to an African Muslim.
Happy to see you back on the channel. Me and my family enjoy watching your videos.
Awesome! Thank you!
@@MahdiandZainabmy brother name Allah bless you Alhamdulillah you are happy with my sister Zainab my name is Ayelsha I am Ghanian
We just love you guys plus please take care of my African sister
Masha ALLAH
Alhamdulillah Im African Caribbean from the UK. I married with an Egyptian and we live in Ghana. I love to obey my husband and be a traditional wife Alhamdulillah.
Alhamdulilah
Alhamdulillah I have been waiting ❤
You are a lovely couple. My husband and I are black carribean catholics living in America. I enjoy cooking ank keeping my house, but it is not the only goal of my existence. My husband also takes turns doing these tasks. When it comes to making decisions for our family, we discuss it, and both learn to see things from different angles. We pray together and try to grow to grow together in wisdom with the help of God. God bless your couple.
Amin
She is beautiful. No harm done in that at all. Congratulations! ♥
Masha Allah what a beautiful recitation, Zainab 😊
I enjoyed watching this. Truth is a lot of family values have been lost in the modern era and it's actually refreshing to see those who uphold them! Christianity also advocates for wives to be submissive to their own husbands. It's pretty sad that some interpret it the way they want and not the way God said. All in all, the best marriages out there are between people with shared values of love and respect 🙏 ❤
This is the best video I’ve ever watched on UA-cam ❤️ I love how you are honest about the real word, I’m glad you’re happy with your wife, please ignore all negative comments 🥰🥰
Inshaa Allah
English born British revert Muslim alhumdulilah. Found my wife in Indonesia. She is traditional, feminine, shy, loyal and trustworthy. Hard to find all those qualities in women born in the west. Unfortunately, many Muslim women also in the West lack traditional qualities.
Are you loyal? Or is just a demand from your wife? You can't have the requirements to have a good wife when you don't build up to be a good husband.
@@otiliamanuelajurj needless to say that a man also has to display and carry out actions befitting of a good husband. But the topic of the video is about looking for a wife, not a husband
@@mdidris4414question was whether you are loyal and of good character or not.
Very interesting video. I met my partner in Church. I never choose him .God did it and it has been a blessing relationship . I do clean and cook but he also help me everyday. Woman and man were made to support each other ❤
Thanks Mahdi for sharing your intentions to marry from abroad. I wish you and Zainab a very happy marriage. You have very good reasons as a moslem man to make this decision because in that way you're sure you have what you want in a woman. With that said, not all African women are like Zainab.
This is the beginning of your journey, just as in every marriage, there are going to be challenges ahead. In sha Allah when babies start arriving, it will become practically impossible for Zainab to provide you with the same amount of care, one of the reasons why you married her in the first place. In fact, she may need support no matter how small to keep up with all her responsibilities.
Even at this stage, many men still demand the same amount of care from their wives, making such women extremely exhausted.
When, that time comes, I think it would be nice to waive some of your rights because caring for kids, taking care of the house are exhausting in addition to completely satisfying a man"s rights can be overwhelming when she gets no help from other family members

Don’t get so attached to “social media” relationships please. Wish them the best and go make sure your relationship with the CREATOR is where it should be because as you may or may not know, sometimes these relationships aren’t what they seem when the 10 minute clips are over… wishing them the best
Its very sickening & i am Carribbean. I agree with you completely. My mom & dad was married 61 years...Its so dam shameful......Its why my grandsons will be exposed to African & Carribbean culture. The West is out of control.....
My dear there are a lot of horrible things in both Carribbean and African culture. Some men also can’t be faithful so it’s no
Panacea.
@@benitabettard9664Yes that's true, but we're not demanding $50,000.00 rings and cars and all this foolishness... Yes it's imperfect, but it's much better.
You do realize that Caribbean “culture” is part of the west?
I sooooo agree!!!
I doubt it was a good marriage
Brother your point is so accurate and the decision you made is great. May Allah the most gracious protect you from evil eyes.May he grant you and your family goodnesses in this life and the hereafter.ameen.
you are so original, better original and genuine than fake. Good video!
yea thanks

Mauritania in Africa 100% Muslim but 75% divorce rate. Highest divorce rate in the world. I agree that you are more likely to find a wife outside America that are closer to what you desire. But there is also just an issue of the human heart.
No country has 100% Muslim… SubhanAllah
They are predominantly Muslim and you should look for the reason for divorce. Also, divorced women over there are highly desirable. So they are doing well than average Americans.
Facts
"DIVORCE" their you go which means there was a no hookup and slutty behaviour and the relationship was marriage, divorce is not bad, it can still be done with mutual respect... ISLAM doesn't prohibit divorce, if things don't work out it is a valid option....
Can you please tell me where you got those statistics from. Find it hard to believe. Especially as accurate stats are hard to obtain in such a remote please like Mauritania.
@@mdidris4414 search it up it’s on the news and the Maldives is a muslim country and it has the highest divorce rate in the world.
My husband came to Africa to Mary me. He is an American and I am a Senegalese we have 4 kids now

Works both ways....Guys mistreat their wives both Muslim and non muslim so own up to it. Now women are reacting for how their mons have been mistreated. Respect works both ways man!
I get what you're saying but, two wrongs, don't make it right. So just because men behave disrespectful, women are doing the same? That can't work.
Love you brother. If you were in front of me, i would have hugged you right away. Such a beautiful message. ❤
😊

I don't have to agree with everything, but I so enjoy watching you two. You are a beautiful couple, and your happiness is contagious 😊❤ Blessings upon you both!
Maa Shaa Allah ❤😊More Baraka in your marriage Mahdi and Zainah❤❤
As an African-American woman, I completely agree with you and I was so blessed to find my Korean American husband that has morals and values.
I appreciate in the beginning when you said “I am not trying to be disrespectful. I am just stating facts “because in America people try to be offensive for clicks and ratings, but I’m so happy for you and your wife.
Yea that’s great and Thanks I appreciate

I am an African-American woman. I took my Shahada July 3rd 2024 and my 9-year-old son took his Shahada July 6th. My parents were not Muslim, but they grew up in the 70s with the Black panther party. So I know my culture before we were slaves we were Kings, Queens and rulers. A lot of us African-American Muslim women do not act like those videos posted for examples. America is HUGE! You have not met all of us. Those type of women disgust me! Those type of women are brainwashed and they will never wake up. Allah has brought you a beautiful wife and to your wife your voice is amazing when you sing🎉 as an African-American Muslim woman, my mom has traditional values and is a very feminine, loving, caring, submissive and clean woman. She taught me everything I needed to know to be a good wife. I knew Islam was for me and there are so many corrupt Muslim men here no matter if they were born in Islam or not. So yes, my teacher teaches us the Quran and what a good Muslim man is so we won't be led astray. I love you too together and I see pure love. Alhumdulillah
I totally agree with you brother,much love ❤️
Hh
Yes.love.❤️
❤️🤪🌹
You don't have to justefy your choices ❤❤❤
You are a grown man and you both seems to have found each others soulmate 🥰❤️
That's true I a Muslim living in canada and couldn't find a Muslim then ending up with different religions person finally the relationship goes very bad. I don't mean the other religion is bad but,better to be same.
yea i understand what you went through bro
I tolally agree in your words, more importantly you raised a stage of Mt. Everest, that is the place I belong to. Stay happy and with strong bond with your wife always!
My favorite couple greeting from France 🇫🇷 we love you
Salaam l am a revert to Islam. l am an American women l am married to someone is not from America. I was also raised to respect myself and whenever l do get married to be submissive to my husband.. and to always be respectful to my husband and l do wear full hijab cover myself. l already have been covered my whole life . l born in the 60’s so mothers and father back then taught their children how to dress and be respectful. So not all Americans women are materialistic just these new generation that haven’t been taught to be respectful and to show young women how to be a lady. Most of these young women truly are not married material and they’ll learn the hard way someday. So my brother and sister l am so happy to see your both stay blessed. I love your UA-cam channel keep us informed In’sha’Allah
I love what you said its true in the bible.If you are a woman and dont know how to humble your self you have a long way to go
@anonymousanonymous870 that's a different context
I am an African American Woman, born and raised in the United States. I TOTALLY agree with all you have pointed out in this video.
She is so beautiful.May God bless your marriage 🎉🎉🎉🎉
I think you made a good decision in finding a traditional wife abroad. I lived in Uk and my husband is from uae but traditional women are hard to find in UK even though there might be some hidden away like I was. Alhamdulillah for everything
Wow we have been craving for your next video but alhamdulila we don't have regrets this is so far the best you have given us the best reason as to why you went all the way to Africa to find your wife I know Zainab will comfort , love,cherish and above all obey you cause this is what she was tought.May Allah bless your marriage insha'Allah.

I'm not Muslim I'm Christian but I love this i truly believe in being submissive and obeying your husband. This was truly a blessing to watch.
I love there calmness ❤❤ once a notification pops just watch your video Right away ..love this couple❤
I'm a Christian woman that was born and raised in the U.S. My roots are from East Africa. I'm glad that you two found each other in a world of 6 billion. I totally understand your point of view. It's sad to see the West become what it is today. I don't agree with a lot of their thinking and refuse to conform to societal norms. People's lack of values, moral, integrity, and being a devoted (insert any religion here) is slowly diminishing.
Thanks u r back..stay blessed

Even here in Nigeria we have wicked and ungrateful Husbands, which they don't appreciate their wives. A wife will do and over do domestic work. Cook, wash his underwears. All in vain the outcome is negative. Is only God that can reward. Happy married life to u Mahdi and Zainab ❤
Sis there are two sides to every story. Yes, he shows the "hijabis" who appear materialistic in the western world but the men are also not very different in that they are not faithful. I am not Muslim (but studying) but my husband is. I am in a FB group of Muslim women from all over the world. They have their own set of challenges with Muslim men, that when I read their posts, it makes me want to cry. They take alot without much reward, recognition or appreciation from their husbands. The husbands take second and third wives #secretly; they beat their wives; they withdraw intimacy from their wives while indulging in pornography or much infidelity - so Muslim men are not so perfect either. When a hijabi sees this, what would make her want to marry? BUT, al hamdullah, I am so happy for this couple. I thank Allah for their YT success and pray that they continue to grow and prosper in their marriage and their channel. It's something very special about this couple that Allah allows their videos to have many positive eyes. Don't forget to like and subscribe to their channel.
Wow. It seems we live in different world. I am Nigerian but I have a very good experience of our men. Just try to get a responsible Nigerian man to marry as it is applicable around the world, dont go for the pookies amongst us. Also, don't ignore the red flags during your dating period.

Hi I’m Zainab, I moved to Morocco because I was in a horrible relationship with a rich narcissist for 7 years . I didn’t know any better. I wanted a real man . I reverted to Islam & I got married to a Moroccan man but it did work out due to cultural differences , age difference and I had some flaws and he wasn’t perfect. Plus his family was nasty to me. We agreed to move on alhamdulilah. Now I’m back here in the states I have 2 children and I try my best to be a good Muslim mother ❤️ Inshallah I have the real Muslim righteous man will find me. ✨

In shaa Allah sister, may Allah SWT bless u with a pious man who will respect u and appreciate u.
But please try to love and also respect your wife as well I beg
Of course he does
It’s a two way thing…
That’s actually a concern of mine - that he does love, honor and respect his wife much as he expects the same from her.
Why does he say every time an African wife why he can't say, my wife or something else?
@@nafisaahmed9190you don't have to be worried about that.she is OK with it.
