Saba Faisal Criticized Over Morning-Show Advice to Newlywed Brides

Her TV remarks reignited a national discussion over traditional expectations for brides in Pakistan’s joint-family homes.

Overview

  • Faisal told a private channel’s morning show that post-wedding household duties largely fall to the mother-in-law, not the new bride.
  • She advised that a bride who wants to rest should politely seek permission from her mother-in-law or married sister-in-law, stressing respectful tone.
  • Social media users condemned the guidance as outdated and unfair, with some questioning her repeated morning-show appearances.
  • Quoted reactions included, “If you are talking about hostel or in-laws’ home?” and calls for her to avoid such programs.
  • Reports say Faisal has not responded to the criticism as the conversation continues across Pakistani platforms.
