When it comes to discussing biological aspects in a desi household, it is something which one may call as a ‘conservative’ approach. We are not taught about a lot of biological details (maybe because it is not natural???) and leave it for the kids to learn it on their own.
No Wonder Why Girls Are Asked Stupid Questions Such As ‘Roza Rakha Hai?’ EVERY YEAR!
With this perception, there comes a lot of embarrassing moments, especially for a desi boy when he asks these questions.
Similar to this is what happened with Mohammed Hussain, a guy from England who had no idea why his bhaabi wasn’t fasting. Here’s how Hussain narrated a hilarious incident:
Okay so let me tell you about how I learned not to ask a woman why she doesn’t pray.

Here’s How It Begins
Peep this, it’s 2007, Avril Lavigne’s Album is number 1 in the charts. I was an edgy 12 year old big man just started secondary school.

Grand Iftaari Scene
It’s the first week of Ramadan, and my entire family are at my Chacha’s house. The whole crew, my cousins and their spouses all here.

I’m a good lad, keeping my fasts. Iftaar was at like 6pm. Those were the good old days. I’m helping the aunties out in the kitchen.

HAHAHAHAHA
I peep my Bhabi scran a whole samosa whilst everyone else wasn’t looking. A WHOLE SAMOSA. LIKE R U D E MANNA NOT EVEN FEARING ALLAH.

Adorable!
But I ain’t no snitch so I let it slide. I glared at her so she know that i know wagwan. I feel like I got some A grade dirt on this woman. pic.twitter.com/eRAYentOQg

So the rest of the evening is relatively uneventful. I’m there with an empty stomach and a parched mouth. This shit is hard for a tubby kid.
— MO HUSSAIN (@lemonslip) May 25, 2017
This is me around that age. So you can imagine what life is like for me rn. I get put on the kiddie table. Smh there’s no biryani here. pic.twitter.com/Jm1uaUmjkr

For The Love Of Biryani
I’m triggered. I’m fuming. My mum sees this and brings my fat ass some biryani before I made a fat kid scene.
— MO HUSSAIN (@lemonslip) May 25, 2017
Anyway, I’m there eating iftaar with the peasants my (younger cousins). The adhan drops from this radio thing my Aunty had. Pre iPhone days.
— MO HUSSAIN (@lemonslip) May 25, 2017
I go into salafi police mode. I jump out my chair, knock my drink off the table and run to do wudhu.
— MO HUSSAIN (@lemonslip) May 25, 2017
Hahahaha The Same Woman!
I come back and see everyone is lining up for salah. Except for one woman. Guess who.
— MO HUSSAIN (@lemonslip) May 25, 2017
Here’s The Best Part LOLOLOLOLOL
At this point I go ape shit. I go up to her and start screaming like “HAVE YOU NO SHAME?” “YOUR FAST ISNT EVEN ACCEPTED AND NOW U DON PRAY?”
— MO HUSSAIN (@lemonslip) May 25, 2017
My mum is turning bright red. She tells me to shut up. I’m still a triggered lil fat shit. I keep going in: “DO U EVEN KNO HOW TO PRAY?”
— MO HUSSAIN (@lemonslip) May 25, 2017
At this point everyone is embarrassed for me. I swear if smartphones were a ting back then I’d be on the front page of world star hip hop.
— MO HUSSAIN (@lemonslip) May 25, 2017
LOOOOL MANHAJ!
My mum pulls me away by my lil fat ear into the side room and slaps me up. Life is deep. Mans just trying to get his fam on the manhaj.
— MO HUSSAIN (@lemonslip) May 25, 2017
I’m crying all the way through Maghrib salah. Nose dripping and all. Slap marks across my face.
— MO HUSSAIN (@lemonslip) May 25, 2017
No ones explaining to me why this lil kuffar got away with this. The car journey home is silent.
— MO HUSSAIN (@lemonslip) May 25, 2017
My parents stage an intervention for my lil salafi ass. All the way up until terawih my parents are telling me about the female body.
— MO HUSSAIN (@lemonslip) May 25, 2017
Yes Please!
Moral of the story is. Chill man. Don’t concern yourselves with other people’s Islam.
— MO HUSSAIN (@lemonslip) May 25, 2017
Hussain might be too young to know any of this, but the grown up men who ask these questions are hella annoying! Spread this message for all these young lads to find out why they shouldn’t be asking such questions.
