Her words: “ The first school a child attends is actually the mother who is a female. If you have succeeded in being a diligent and upright person, that means your child has the opportunity to become a better . Allah has done more than good. He has provided us as many as possible. The more you get married to us and take care of us, the more money you have. Now look at the Hadith of the Prophet (S.A.W), when you bring something home as a father, the first child you are to give is a female child. That is a significance I want you to note.”

She, however, decried the unsatisfied nature of women and other unacceptable attitudes common with most females.

“Rusulullah (S.A.W) said in Ja’namah, we have more females than males. After I stumbled on that Hadith of the Prophet (S.A.W), I kept on thinking why we will be so much in Ja’namah. Number one, we are such an ungrateful creature. Our being female sometimes annoy us. When a woman is pregnant or observing her menstrual period, she gets easily annoyed. When she is on hijab, she will complain of heat. When she sees another sister in Niqab, she will make jest of her. When she eventually get married, another problem. They tend not to appreciate their husband’s effort.

“These are some of the problems associated with females- appreciation and  ungratefulness. You don’t like your stature; you don’t like your nature; anything you don’t just like it. No matter how well you set up a house for a woman, she will still see something to complain about. That is the way females really are. They lament over everything you do for them.

“Another thing you do is hypocrisy which God so much despise. Regardless of the type of gift you have, I don’t just want you to be appreciative, but also take caution as well.” She added.

Also speaking at the event was Seyyidah Ibrahim Fatimah who rendered health lecture on Menstrual Cycle and Ovulation.

Meanwhile, the event further saw the performance from popular Islamic music artist, Seyyidah Ayishat Umu Niyass and  TISMAN members  from Lagos State University of Education (formerly  Adeniran Ogunsanya College of Education.)

Other notable guests present at the event include, Seyidah Modinat Olafimihan, Seyidah Zinat Kalejaye represented by Alhaja Ganitah Elesho, Seyidah Aljafariyah, Seyidah Ibrahim Fateemah, and Lagos State/South West  Muqodamoh  Seyyidah Ayisha.
