A wife should strive hard to obey her husband

Q 3: I got married two years ago and I am still a student. I have been living with my family since then. I gave birth to a baby. However, I sometimes feel that I hate my husband and I keep telling myself that I should not and will not think this way, but I always return to the same idea, then regret afterwards, but to no avail. My question is: What should I do with my husband? It should be mentioned that he does not annoy me in any way, except if I am the one who makes the first move.


A: You should fear Allah (Exalted be He), strive against yourself, and be a good companion to your husband. You should also guard his honor, money, and children, and fulfill all his duties. In order to do this, you should first seek Allah's Support, and then be patient, observe Salah (Prayer), recite the Qur'an, and say Adhkar (invocations and remembrances said at certain times on a regular basis) that are authentically reported from the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him). Moreover, you should resort to Allah to grant you success in fulfilling Allah's Rights, which He has prescribed, as well as the rights of His Servants. Finally, you should remember the bad end of whoever oppresses and maltreats their life partners. We ask Allah (Exalted be He) to guide your heart to Al-Haqq (the Truth). (Part No. 19; Page No. 234) May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
