First, the rising cost of living is increasingly prohibiting the existence of single-working-parent households. It's just too expensive to send your two kids to university, feed the family, pay mortgage on the house and drive (a) car(s) with just one parent working.

Secondly, who are you to dictate who plays what role in society? Why should a young woman stay home if she doesn't want to and why should a young man be forced to provide for the family if he chooses not to? If the family is working with the mother earning money, what's wrong with that? Why should your religious views dictate what others do?

Firstly, may Allah SWT guide you to Islam. Amin everyone. Secondly, Islam is not about doing what we feel like doing. Thirdly, about the woman wanting to work outside the home, it depends on her motivation and how sincere she’s being to Allah SWT. If Allah SWT 'sees' in heart she’s being sincere, He SWT will Allah SWT will make it possible for her to work under His SWT protection or will SWT provide her with a better alternative. Sincere Muslimahs would happily use Harry Potter’s invisibility cloak and a TH6000 when working with non mahram men. If a Muslimah has a problem with not being seen by non mahrams and her natural voice not being heard, then I’d say that’s an indication she’s not being sincere and should save herself from her nafs by staying home. Wallahu a’lam
