What Makes a Good Muslim Husband?
Good Husband Dress up for your wife, look clean and smell good!
When was the last time you went shopping for the best clothing? Just like a husband wants his wife to look nice for him, she also wants her husband to dress up for her too. Remember that the Prophetﷺ would always start with Miswak when returning home and always loved the sweetest smells.
Use the best names for your wife
Call your wife by the most beloved names to her, and avoid using names that hurt their feelings. Take the example of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ who used to call Aisha RZ “Humaira”. Respect her in all aspects. This relation gets stronger with the element of respect.
Don’t treat her like a fly
We never think about a fly in our daily lives until it ‘bugs’ us. Similarly a wife will do well all day- which brings no attention from the husband- until she does something to ‘bug’ him. Don’t treat her like this; recognize all the good that she does and focus on that.
If you see wrong from your wife, try being silent and do not comment!
This is one of the ways the Prophet ﷺ used when he would see something inappropriate from his wives RZ.It is a technique that few Muslim men have mastered.
Smile at your wife whenever you see her and embrace her often
Smiling is sadaqah and your wife is not exempt from the Muslim Ummah! Imagine life with her constantly seeing you smiling. Remember also those Hadeeth when the Prophet ﷺ would kiss his wife before leaving for Salah, even when he was fasting.
Thank her for all that she does for you
Then thank her again. Take for example a dinner at your house. She makes the food, cleans the home, and a dozen other tasks to prepare. And sometimes the only acknowledgement she receives is that there needs to be more salt in the soup. Don’t let that be; thank her!
Don’t belittle her desires, comfort her
Sometimes the men may look down upon the requests of their wives. The Prophet ﷺ
Set the example for us in an incident when Safiyyah RZ was crying as she said, he had put her on a slow camel. He wiped her tears, comforted her, and brought her the camel. (Aaaw!)
Be humorous and play games with your wife
Look at how the Prophet ﷺ would race with his wife Aisha RZ in the desert. When was the last time you did something like that? A joyful, happy relation needs a touch of humor. It strengthens more when both of husband and wife laugh with each other.
Always remember the words of Allah’s Messenger ﷺ
“The best of you are those who treat their families the best. And I am the best among you to my family.” Try to be the best insha Allah!
In the end, never forget to make dua to Allah to make your marriage successful.
