COUPLES' RIGHTS TO EACH OTHER IN ISLAM continues

 *_DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER_*

Yaumul Jumuat | 29th day of Rabee-ul Awwal, 1448 AH | Friday, 11th September, 2026. 

*_COUPLES' RIGHTS TO EACH OTHER IN ISLAM continues_*. BismilLah. 

Alhamdulillah for granting us the opportunity to be part of this blessed day of the week. 

A marriage becomes stronger when husband and wife can say:

“Let us help each other get closer to ALLAH Azzawajal.”

Not:

“You are responsible for your own religion; I am responsible for mine.”

Islam gives the husband responsibilities of leadership and maintenance, while giving the wife corresponding rights and responsibilities. Ladies first they say so let's start with the wife's rights in Islam. 

A wife is not a servant in the home. She is an amanah (trust) from ALLAH Azzawajal.

ALLAH Azzawajal says:

“And live with them in kindness.”

Qur’an 4:19.

A wife has the right to love, respect, kindness, maintenance, protection, companionship, privacy and justice.

She deserves a husband who listens to her, appreciates her sacrifices, supports her in raising the children and helps her become closer to ALLAH Azzawajal.

The Prophet ﷺ said:

“The best of you are those who are best to their wives.” Tirmidhi.

Brothers, remember: your real character is not measured by how well you treat people outside your home, but also by how you treat the woman who shares your home and life. Before asking, “What are my wife's duties?”, ask yourself:

“Am I fulfilling the rights ALLAH Azzawajal has placed upon me?”

Marriage is not a competition over who deserves more. It is a partnership in which both husband and wife seek the pleasure of ALLAH Azzawajal. To be continued tomorrow in Shaa ALLAH. 

*_May ALLAHAzzawajal fill our marriages with love, mercy, patience and barakah_*. Aameen
