---------------------------------

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

When Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) reported his first revelation, Nana Khadija became the first person to convert to Islam and was always supportive of her husband’s prophetic mission. She also invested much of the money she had accumulated from her trading endeavours in the mission. Her wealth allowed her husband the leisure to meditate - providing the ransom for Muslim slaves and feeding the Muslim community.

*Lessons:*

It's an act of worship wives helping their husband in anyway (except in ways of disobeying Allah - (swt)

Abu Sa’id (r.a.) narrated that ‘Zainab the wife of Ibn Mas’ud came along and said to the Prophet “O Messenger of Allah (PBUH) You have commanded us today to give Sadaqah (charity). I have some jewellery of mine and I wanted to give it as Sadaqah, but Ibn Mas’ud claims that he and his children are the most entitled to my Sadaqah. (Deserve it more than anyone else.)’ The Messenger of Allah (saw) said: *“Ibn Mas’ud is right. Your husband and your children are more deserving.’’* 📚 Authentic hadeeth

But Madam!

Be careful not to disrespect or humiliate your husband because you are supporting the family or because he is not EARNING better than you.. Do not talk to him harshly, do not abuse him, do not be inattentive to him, and do not call him by any obscene titles ESPECIALLY infront of kids or visitors. Remember that, *"A woman will be rewarded by Allah for her obedience to her husband"* 📚 Authentic hadeeth

Servants of Allah!

What the Muslim has to do when he/she learns the ruling of Islam, is to submit to it and believe in it even if it goes against our desires.. Allah (swt) says in Surah al-Ahzaab 33:36:

وَمَا كَانَ لِمُؤْمِنٍ وَلَا مُؤْمِنَةٍ إِذَا قَضَى ٱللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُۥٓ أَمْرًا أَن يَكُونَ لَهُمُ ٱلْخِيَرَةُ مِنْ أَمْرِهِمْۗ وَمَن يَعْصِ ٱللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُۥ فَقَدْ ضَلَّ ضَلَٰلًا مُّبِينًا

"It is not for a believing man or a believing woman, when Allah and His Messenger have decided a matter, that they should [thereafter] have any choice about their affair. And whoever disobeys Allah and His Messenger has certainly strayed into clear error." 📚al-Ahzaab 33:36

Madam!!!

The fact that you are doing some businesses or working to earn salary does not give you right to RUB SHOULDER with your husband. Yes.. You may even earn 10X better than him per month, he is still the 'Boss' in the house, and should be respected.

My People!

Haven't we think about why a woman is married out by her parents❓ Honestly, if it's JUST about food, clothing, shelter, parents would not have married their daughters out❗Yes. Women are married out to her husband because Islamic shareeyyah has given him LICENSE to render certain services, which NO ONE (Parents and family members put together) can not render. I hope you all understand❓🤦🏻‍♂️.  And this is why he should be fully respected irrespective of his income.

*We should also take note of the following points:*

Just as the husband has the right to be obeyed, Islam also tells him to treat his wife kindly.

Evidence:

ولهن مثل الذي عليهن بلمعرف والرحال عليهن درخ...

“And they (women) have rights similar to that of their husband, but the husband is higher in darajah (status)...” 📚al-Baqarah 2:228

So,

A man should not mistreat or oppress his wife, or issue harsh commands to her.. Rather he should deal with her in a wise manner, and tell her to do things which are not above her capabilities and in a kind and gentle manner.

That's why,

The Prophet (PBUH) said: *“The best of you is the one who is best to his wife, and I am the best of you to my wives.”* 📚 Authentic hadeeth
