41 – Counsel to the Married Couple

In conclusion, I offer the following advice to both spouses:

First: Cooperate with one another and mutually exhort each other to obey Allah, adhering to the definitive rulings found in the Qur’an and the Sunnah. Do not give precedence to mere imitation, prevailing custom, or any particular school of thought over them. Allah, exalted is He, says: “It is not for a believing man or a believing woman, when Allah and His Messenger have decided a matter, to have any choice in their affair; and whoever disobeys Allah and His Messenger has certainly strayed into clear error” (al-Ahzab 33:36).

Second: Each spouse must faithfully carry out the duties and rights that Allah has imposed toward the other. Thus, the wife should not claim total parity with the husband in every one of his rights, nor should the husband exploit the degree of authority with which Allah has favored him over her.

and al-Tabarani, al-Muʿjam al-Kabir 1/89/2; and Abu Nuʿaym, Ahadith Abi al-Qasim al-Asamm, pp. 17–18, with a sound chain, its authenticity further affirmed by al-Mundhiri and al-Haythami. I have analyzed the report in detail in Silsilat al-Ahadith al-Sahihah, no. 309.
٤١- وصايا إلى الزوجين: وختاما أوصي الزوجين: أولا: أن يتطاوعا ويتناصحا بطاعة الله ﵎ واتباع أحكامه الثابتة في الكتاب والسنة ولا يقدما عليها تقليدا أو عادة غلبت على الناس أو مذهبا فقد قال ﷿: ﴿وَمَا كَانَ لِمُؤْمِنٍ وَلا مُؤْمِنَةٍ إِذَا قَضَى اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَمْراً أَنْ يَكُونَ لَهُمُ الْخِيَرَةُ مِنْ أَمْرِهِمْ وَمَنْ يَعْصِ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ فَقَدْ ضَلَّ ضَلالاً مُبِيناً﴾ [الأحزاب: ٣٦] . ثانيا: أن يلتزم كل واحد منهما القيام بما فرض الله عليه من الواجبات والحقوق تجاه الآخر فلا تطلب الزوجة - مثلا - أن تساوي الرجل في جميع حقوقه ولا يستغل الرجل ما فضله الله تعالى به عليها من السيادة
