The rights of the husband upon his wife are greater than the rights of
the wife upon her husband for the simple reason that Allaah, the
Almighty, stated in the Glorious Quran what means: "…And due to the
wives issimilar to what is expected of them, according to what is
reasonable. But the men have a degree over them [in responsibility and
authority]. AndAllaah is Exalted in Might and Wise." [Quran 2: 228]
Man is the caretaker of his wife and household. He is responsible for
all her affairs. He is responsible for training, directionand
discipline if needed. Allaah Almighty Says what means: "Men are in
charge of women by [right of] what Allaah has given one over the other
and what they spend [for maintenance] from their wealth…" [Quran 4:34]
It is an essential right of man over his wife to be obeyed so long as
his commands do not conflict or contradict the commands of Allaah, the
Almighty, Allaah's Messenger and the general teachings and codes of
ethics of Islam.
Allaah Almighty Says in the same verse mentioned above (what means):
"...But if they obey you [once more], seek no means against them.
Indeed, Allaah is ever Exalted and Grand.." [Quran 4:34]
A Muslim wife must protect her husband's secrets, privacies, honor and
dignity. She also must protect his wealth, children, finance,
belongings and other aspects of his household, as much as possible.
Allaah Almighty Says in the same verse (what means): "...So righteous
women are devoutly obedient, guarding in [the husband's] absence what
Allaah would have them guard..." [Quran4:34]
Allaah's Messenger said: "The wife is the guardian over the house of
her husband and his children." [Al-Bukhaari and Muslim]
And, "If I were to command a single person to bow in prostration to
another person, I could have commanded a womanto bow down (in
obedience and respect, not in worship) to her husband." [Abu Daawood]
Allaah's Messenger also said: "If a husband calls his wife to his bed,
but the latter refused to fulfill the call (for any reason other than
a lawful one), which drives the man to become upset with his wife,
then angels will curse such a wife until she gets up in the morning."
[Al-Bukhaari and Muslim]
He furthermore, said: "Their (husbands') rights over you (wives) is
that you do not allow anyone whom they dislike onto your bedding and
you do not allow anyone whom they dislike into your house."
[At-Tirmithi]
The wife must not leave the house except with her husband's permission
and approval. She must also lower her gaze, keep her voice low, keep
her hands from reaching out to anything evil and keep her tongue from
any lewd or foul speech. She also must not harm his parents or near
relatives.
This is because Allaah Almighty has said (what means): "And abide in
your houses and do not display yourselves as [was] the display of the
former times of ignorance...." [Quran 33:33]
Allaah Almighty also has said (what means): "...Do not be soft in
speech [to men], lest he in whose heart is disease should covet, but
speak with appropriate speech." [Quran 33:32]
In another verse, Allaah Sayas (what means): "And tell the believing
women to reduce [some] of their vision and guard their private parts
and not expose their adornment except that which [necessarily] appears
thereof..." [Quran 24:31]
Allaah's Messenger said: "The best woman is the one who when you look
at her, you are pleased; when you order her, she obeys; if you are
absent from her,she guards herself and your property." [At-Tabarani]
An other right of the husband over his wife is that the husband may
ask his wife not do something, including, but not limited to voluntary
acts of worship, other than obligatory, which cause her to lessen the
time that her husband may have to enjoy her.
Allaah's Messenger stated: "A wife is not allowed to observe fast
(other than fasting in the month of Ramadhaan, the prescribed, unless
she has his permission. She may not allow any one to come into his
house, unless he permits." [At-Tirmithi]
Moreover, Allaah's Messenger placed the satisfaction and pleasure of a
husband to be one of the reasons to enable the wife to enter Paradise.
At-Tirmithi reported from Umm Salamah, the mother of the believers
that Allaah's Messenger said: "Any woman whose husband dies while he
is pleased, happy and satisfied withher (acts, attitudes and behavior)
will enter Jannah (Paradise)."
These are but few items of the many rights that Islam, the religion of
truth, imposes upon those who commit themselves tofollow and practice
it as a way of life. We vividly see that such rights, if maintained
properly, will lead a society to peace, happiness and tranquility.
A husband becomes caring, affectionate, loving and responsible, yet
directing and capable of discipline when needed to improve a
troublesome situation, regardless of his tender care and love for his
wife, so that vise and wickedness will not spread in thesociety.
A wife becomes more respected, adored, cared for, highly needed and
appreciated if she respects the rights of her husband, and equally
given the rights she is entitled for by Islam.
In such a coherent way, the religion of truth, goodness, justice,
equity, and all fairness coincide with basic requirements of life
including harmony between all the members of the society, especially
between the husband and the wife . - - ▓███▓ Translator:->

*- WHAT ISLAM SAYS -*
-
Islam is a religion of Mercy, Peace and Blessing. Its teachings emphasize kind hear tedness, help, sympathy, forgiveness, sacrifice, love and care.Qur’an, the Shari’ah and the life of our beloved Prophet (SAW) mirrors this attribute, and it should be reflected in the conduct of a Momin.Islam appreciates those who are kind to their fellow being,and dislikes them who are hard hearted, curt, and hypocrite.Recall that historical moment, when Prophet (SAW) entered Makkah as a conqueror. There was before him a multitude of surrendered enemies, former oppressors and persecutors, who had evicted the Muslims from their homes, deprived them of their belongings, humiliated and intimidated Prophet (SAW) hatched schemes for his murder and tortured and killed his companions. But Prophet (SAW) displayed his usual magnanimity, generosity, and kind heartedness by forgiving all of them and declaring general amnesty...Subhanallah. May Allah help us tailor our life according to the teachings of Islam. (Aameen)./-
