Could any muslimah pl elucidate this. A friend of mine recently converted to islam after having married a woman from Yemen. She is a very devout ?
Peace Nitin, I hope you are fine. I am Muslim, so let me give you the best and truest answer for you to share with your friend.





Here are the basic teachings of what is expected of a Muslim man and a Muslim woman when they decide to commit to marriage:





Rightful duties of the wife:





1) She has to look after the comfort of her husband, give him due respect and always have regard for his feelings.


2) She has to safeguard the honour of her husband.


3) She has to be the guardian of the property of her husband.


4) She has to rear and bring up their children properly.


5) She should treat the relatives of her husband as if they were her own relatives.


6) She should beautify herself for her husband.


7) She should bear in mind the tastes of her husband in the matter of food and dress.


8) She should be ever mindful of her husband's health.


9) She should give her most sincere advice when her husband consults her in any of his problems.


10) She should not make unfair and unreasonable demands on the purse of her husband.


11) She has to remain loyal to her husband under all conditions and be a source of strength to him in adverse circumstances and stick fast to him through thick and thin.


12) She should be careful that the dignity and reputation of her husband are not harmed by any of her actions.


13) Under all conditions her behaviour should be conducive to peace and tranquility in the house.





The rightful duties of the husband are:





1) He should respect and be very mindful of the susceptibilities of his wife.


2) He should try to be a source of comfort to his wife and behave in a manner that convinces her that she alone is the center of his love and affection.


3) He should provide for all her reasonable needs and by keeping within his means, he should be disposed to spending in that respect with an open hand.


4) The husband should participate in the management of the house by giving hand in the household chores of his spouse.


5) He should look after her health and be always anxious about it.


6) He should refrain from keeping a close watch over every movement of his wife as if he had no confidence in her and thus making her life miserable.


7) He should always be disposed to overlooking the minor shortcomings of his wife and be generous in forgiving and forgetting.


8) He should see that trifles do not lead to a situation in which tempers are lost and threats of divorce and separation are pronounced.


9) He should shun every act or acts which is likely to displease or agonize his wife.


10) The husband should display a sense of utmost sympathy towards his wife when she is in distress or has met with some misfortune.


11) He should not object to his wife meeting her relatives provided no mischief is feared from their side. He should also be respectful to them.


12) He should consult his wife in all family matters of importance and handle the situation as decided by mutual consent.


13) If there are more wives than one, the husband must treat them all as equal in every respect, in dress, in food, in living accommodation and in the duration of his stay with each of them.





Both (man and woman) should understand these teachings and do their best to adopt these teachings in their relationship.





I hope this helps your friend and other married couples out there; regardless if they are Muslim or not.

how devout was she that she stepped out of her religion





wearing the hijab does not make u devout women who took over a russian school with guns and bombs were also wearing a hijab as were women reportedly responsible for the bombing in mumbai





ur heart ur soul makes u devout not ur outward show to the world
May Allah bless them both,
