yes.

If you believe that doing the alim/alimah course = piety,religeousness, then im afraid to say hazrat, well, i wont say what I think.

knowledge does not = piety. Knowledge does not = having the CORRECT understanding of deen.

tarbiyah is something that is so important,yet not enough importance is given.

doing the alim/alimah course may get one onto the basics.

if a man is a non alim, and his wife a 'alimah', even then the husband can do tarbiyah of his wife.

Enigma, thats like saying a non practicing Muslim or a Muslim who doesnt pray 5 times a day. Its unheard of.

I also highly doubt an alimah wife will take tarbiyah from non alim husband though he may be shaikh of tasawwuf - I would be very surprised if a non alim husband did tarbiyah of his alim wife. They usually only discuss on the academic level - a for a, b for b, tick for tack - anything else is irrelevant. The ones I met, their idea of tasawwuf is like these ghair muqalideen, they think it is bidah or at the best of no use to them. Those were just my experiences. Maybe these sisters are right and I ran into a few bad apples, who knows? But my experiences have molded my ideas on this issue for the time being.
