In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious And The Most Merciful. Everyone knows Malcolm X, an African-American minister and human rights activist. He is one of the greatest and most influential African-American in history. And these are the advises from him to all Muslim women all over the world.

Once your work is finished, don't watch the television. Once your work is finished, find something constructive to add to your mind. Have an hour for reading. I don't mean read comic books. Read something that will make you know what's happening. So when you get into a conversation, you can sound intelligent, even if you aren't! DO YOU HEAR ME WHAT I'M SAYING? What kind of man want a wife today who can't hold a conversation? No, don't a man wanna sit up and talk to you about babies or about 'Johnny needs some shoes', your husband don't wanna even hear that! One of the reasons you have trouble in your house is you can't carry an intelligent adult conversation. When your husband was there, you talk trash! That's all you talk, TRASH! He's a Muslim. He wanna talk about Ya'qub (prophet), He wanna talk about the sun, moon and stars. He wanna talk about Prophet Adam, even if he don't know what's he's talking about, that's what he wanna talk about!
I'm telling you this so you won't lose your husband. Now you can't hold no man now like you used to...talking some trash about sister so-and-so! I mean i'm telling ya that will drive a man crazy. So get a book and read! And then when he comes in the house, start talking about something that's going to nourish his mind and nourish your mind. Read your lessons and talk about the lessons.
See, you've been so far away from this that is your husband sits and reads or studies , he could be reading beside you studying something serious, you think he's ignoring you! But if he put down his book, and both of you sit and watch t.v together, that's makes you happy doesn't it? Why don't you think that he can read with you as easily as watch the television with you? I'm gonna tell you why! You don't know enough about what he's reading. You don't know enough about what he's interested in . So that when he's doing what he's interested in, you feel left out! But the television is your level. Please forgive me for saying this. But no, the television is your level! YOU GOT A 'TELEVISION' BRAIN! A 'TELEVISION' VOCABULARY! AND YOU LIVE IN A 'TELEVISION' WORLD! Now, as long as your man is spending time with you on your level, you are happy!
But when he tries to get you into a world that's base on intellect, that's base on intelligence, that's base on nourishing that brain, you feel left out. And you are left out! I don't make you angry for saying this do i? But this is good for you because when you understand that, you know how to get in, and if you got in, you know how to keep in. But if you don't understand then i guarantee that you won't keep what you got and you won't get what you got your eyes on! DO YOU UNDERSTAND THAT?
