“The spouse is the gatekeeper of the place of her better half and his children.”(Al-Bukhari)
A spouse should comply with her significant other, be conscious towards him, and be enthusiastic all of the time to satisfy him and fulfill him.
Allah says: “And they (ladies) have privileges (over their spouses as respects everyday costs) like (those of their husbands) over them (as respects acquiescence and regard) to what in particular is sensible” (2:228).
The Prophet Muhammad(ﷺ) said:
“No person is allowed to prostrate to another, yet if this was allowed I would have requested spouses to prostrate to their husbands, as a result of the significance of the privileges they have over them.” Tirmidhi
The Prophet (ﷺ) said:
“Focus on how you treat him, for he is your Paradise and your Hell.” Ahmad and al-Nisa’i
A spouse can’t permit anybody to enter their home
Without her significant other’s authorization. She likewise can’t take off from her home without his insight and authorization.
The Prophet (ﷺ) said:
“It isn’t allowed for an in lady Allah to permit anybody into her significant other’s home whom he detests, or to go out when he doesn’t need her to, or to comply with any other person against him, or to spurn his bed, or to hit him.” Al-Hakim.
She should safeguard his abundance, kids, money, property, and different parts of his family, however much as could reasonably be expected. Allah Almighty says in Holy Quran:
“… So equitable ladies are faithfully devoted, monitoring in [the husband’s] nonattendance what Allah would have them watch… “(Quran, 4:34)
Good Behavior with her Husband
Muslim spouse should keep appropriate conduct with her better half.
Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) said:
“The best of your ladies is the productive, the warm, the virtuous, the charmed of her family, the humble to her better half, sustained against other than him, pay attention to what he says, and submits to his orders, offers herself to him when alone, yet not in an audacious way like his.”
Enjoying Her Beauty
She ought to give him approaches to partaking in her excellence and fulfill his cravings and forestall him the allurement of hurling himself entirely into the snares of taboo longings.
In Holy Quran, Allah Almighty says:
“Your ladies are a tilth for you (to develop) so go to your tilth when you like and do great in advance for yourselves and dread Allah, and realize that you will (at some point) meet Him. Give happy news to devotees, (O Muhammad)” (Quran 2:223)
A wife should be tolerant and forgiving
She shouldn’t bear a grudge against him or remind him about his mistakes often. No quality will endear her to her husband like the quality of tolerance and forgiveness, and there is nothing that will turn her husband against her like resentment, counting faults, and reminding him about his mistakes.
Allah says:
“Let them forgive and overlook, do you not wish that Allah should forgive you?” (24:22)
A spouse should show appreciation to her significant other
The Prophet (ﷺ) said:
“Allah won’t take a gander at the one who doesn’t express gratitude toward her better half when she can’t manage without him.” Al-Hakim
It is taboo for a lady to dress in grieving for over three days for anybody, except for her significant other’s demise, when she is allowed to grieve for quite some time and ten days.
The Prophet (ﷺ) said:
“It isn’t allowed for an in lady Allah and the Last Day to lament for over three days, aside from her significant other, (for whom she might lament) four months and ten days.”
The Wife should be Available for her Husband
In Islam, when a couple is hitched, the spouse isn’t to reject her significant other concerning sexual satisfaction. Except if or until the spouse isn’t feeling or incapable to engage in sexual relations because of compulsory diets, periods, and so forth, she is obliged to make herself accessible to her significant other upon the beginning of their marriage at whatever point he asks her. A spouse’s refusal of her significant other’s solicitation for actual closeness is incredibly censured by Allah (Tala) as is displayed in the accompanying hadith:
Described by Abu Hurairah (RA):
“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:
‘When a man calls his significant other to his bed and she rejects, and he nodded off irate with her, the heavenly messengers will revile her until morning.'” (Muslim, 1436)
The primary reasoning behind this is so the spouse doesn’t fall off track and submit Zina.
