difficulty, she immediately becomes overly emotional. And, she
does not regard such a response as weakness, but makes an exhibi-
tion of her emotions, thinking that it will make others feel sorry for
her. This mode of behavior is encouraged by the community. In an

ignorant system, people behave as if they feel sympathy for one
overcome by emotion, and the person exhibiting her feelings usu-
ally attracts the attention she wants.
In addition, there is a more powerful emotion that some igno-
rant women tend to display which takes hold of her whole charac-
ter. It is a kind of emotionalism that pervades every aspect of the
lives of the women in question; it derives from unhappiness and not

submitting to Allah or her fate. So, because of this emotionalism, she
becomes irrational, unable to arrive at intelligent decisions or to act
prudently. She sees everything in negatively, considers herself suf-
ferer of some injustice; and, therefore, deludes herself with false sce-
narios, sinking further into an unhealthy spiritual quagmire. What
she expected from marriage did not materialize; the initial exhilara-
tion, love and respect disappeared. Such disappointment led to her
despondence. Her behavior becomes an external manifestation of
her condition; her eyes are constantly brimming with tears, she is

melancholic and sorrowful. If she does not receive a compliment on
a meal she has carefully prepared, or no one notices her new outfit,
or if she does not immediately get she is after, she becomes overly
emotional. A misspoken word, a joking remark, or sometimes, just
the wrong word will fix in her mind, and lead her to become emo-
tional. She will remember the offense throughout the day, and let it
become something in her mind that was never intended of it. But,

the guilty person was probably not even aware of what he had done.
