Rights of the husband
Contents > Social Life in Islam > Rights of the husband
Haq az-Zawj - You must know the husband's rights. The Husband has the right over his wife that he is obeyed, that she maintains peace and tranquillity with him and that she will give him intimate relationship and ultimately children. Allah says,
"Men are protectors and maintainers of women because Allah has given the one more strength than the other, and because they support them from their wealth." al-Qur’an, Surah al-Nisaa’, 4: 34
Allah says,
"And among his signs is this, that the created for you mates from among yourselves that you may dwell in tranquillity with them, and He has put love and mercy between your hearts undoubtedly, in this are signs for those who reflect" al-Qur’an, Surah al-Room, 30: 21
The Prophet Muhammad (saw) has said,
“Each of you is a guardian and is responsible for his ward. The ruler is a guardian (over his people), a man is a guardian of the members of his household, and a woman is guardian and responsible for her husband’ (saw) house and his off-spring, and so each of you is a guardian and is responsible for his ward.” Saheeh al-Bukhari and Saheeh al-Muslim
The Prophet (saw) said:
“Any women, if her husband calls her and she rejects, the angels will curse her till the morning.” Saheeh al-Muslim
