بسم الله الرحمان الرجيم
Let's talk about a sickness that slowly destroys your marriage. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said this sickness shows our faith is not complete. The sickness is called not being thankful to your wife.
The Prophet said:
“A person who is not thankful to people is not thankful to Allah.” 📚(Sunan Abi Dawud)
Think about that. If we don't say thank you to people who are kind to us, how can we say we are thankful to Allah? And my brother, who is more kind to you every day than your wife?
My Brother,
You might think housework is easy. But it is hard work that never ends. A wife works all day and night. Some go to work or shop and still take care of the husband. Cooking, cleaning, washing clothes, ironing, taking care of the children... this is not a one-time job. It repeats every single day. It is very tiring and difficult.
A man might think, "She just cooks food." He does not see the mountain of other work she does. To be honest, if a man stays home for just one week and does all the housework himself, he will understand the great pressure. Then he will truly see how hard his wife works.
Your wife does all this work, often with a happy heart, for you and your family. But she has a right to your thanks. She needs you to thank her.
Brother,
What is wrong with saying "thank you" for a clean house?
Why not say you like the food she cooks?
Is it a crime to tell her,"You look beautiful today"?
Is it a sin to say "Thank you, my wife" many times?
Don't you know that your words of thanks are like water to a dry plant? They make her happy, give her new energy, and help her to keep going.
In fact,
There is a story of a woman who started to love another man because he gave her the kind words and compliments her own husband never did:
"My husband never says I look nice, even when I dress up for him. I didn't mind at first. Then, a man at my job started giving me compliments. I told him to stop, but he didn't. Slowly, his kind words started to make me feel good, because my husband never said them. Without realizing it, I started to like him. Before I knew it, I had fallen in love with him."
My Brother,
If you don't show you care, she will become sad and lose interest. You might be the reason for problems in your marriage.
It is strange!
You thank a stranger for a small thing, but you don't thank your wife for everything she does.
Some men think saying thank you will spoil their wife. This is not true. It actually makes your marriage stronger and makes her respect you more.
Start today. Thank your wife. Show her you see her hard work. Even if it's not everyday, tell her sweet words which expresses appreciation. If she dresses to look good for you, acknowledge it romantically. Yes. When you do this, you are also doing Ibadah, because you are thanking Allah (swt).
