Loving a Man Before Marriage Question: Your Eminence, is it permissible for a woman to love a person with the intention of marrying him? Sheikh Ibn Baz rahimahullah: There is no harm in such love, whether it is love for him for the sake of Allāh, or love because she desires to marry him for valid reasons—such as family connection, shared religion, or other legitimate causes. However, she must not act with him in…

A Major Sin: Injustice in Treating Wives Equally It is reported in Sunan Abi Dawud with an authentic chain from Abu Hurayrah (may Allāh be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: “Whoever has two wives and inclines toward one of them, on the Day of Resurrection he will come with a slanted side.” Explanation: This hadith indicates that injustice in affection and financial maintenance toward one’s…

A Woman Describing Other Women to Her Husband It is reported in Sahih Al-Bukhari from Ibn Masʿud (may Allāh be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: “A woman should not describe another woman to her husband as if he were looking at her.” This means she should not depict the softness of another woman’s body or the delicacy of her figure to her husband in a way that captures his heart and incites…

Why Are Stubborn Women Unsuccessful? I read a practical observation from some educators, which I'll summarise here: Stubborn women are often unsuccessful in marriage and in their relationships, even with relatives. A woman who lacks emotional intelligence and flexibility in dealing with others is more likely to fail in marriage. Why? Because she engages in power struggles and follows her selfish desires, which…

A Common Major Sin: Wife Abandoning Her Husband’s Bed It is reported in Sahih Al-Bukhari and Sahih Muslim from Abu Hurayrah (may Allāh be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: “If a man invites his wife to his bed and she refuses, causing him to spend the night angry with her, the angels will curse her until morning.” This ḥadīth indicates that a woman’s refusal to join her husband in bed without…

𝗪𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗻'𝘀 𝗕𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗳𝗶𝘁𝘀 (524) Concealment of Love and Hatred Between a Man and a Woman Ibn Mufliḥ, may Allāh have mercy on him, said: «الرجل يكتم بغض المرأة أربعين يوماً ولا يمكنه أن يكتم حبها يوما .. والمرأة تكتم حب الرجل أربعين يوماً ولا يمكن أن تكتم بغضه يوما» "A man can conceal a woman’s hatred for forty days, yet he cannot conceal her love even for a single day. And a woman can conceal a man’s love…

A Major Sin: Anal Intercourse It is reported in Sunan At-Tirmidhi with an authentic chain from Ibn ʿAbbas (may Allāh be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: “Allāh does not look at a man who has intercourse with a man or with a woman in her anus.” Explanation: This ḥadīth indicates that engaging in intercourse with a woman in her anus is one of the major sins, as the Prophet ﷺ stated that Allāh…

A Woman’s Jealousy Over Her Husband’s Books It is reported from Az-Zubayr ibn Abi Bakr Bakkar that: “My niece said to our family: ‘My uncle is the best of men toward his household; he neither takes a co-wife nor buys a slave girl.’ Then she (his wife) said: ‘By Allāh, these books of his are more difficult upon me than three co-wives!’” Source: Al-Khaṭīb, Al-Jāmi‘ li-Akhlāq Ar-Rāwi wa Ādāb As-Sāmi‘

Can a Woman Initiate Dhihār or Declare Her Husband Unlawful to Herself? A woman asked: If I say to my husband, ‘If you do such-and-such, you become forbidden to me as my father is forbidden to me,’ what is the ruling on this? Shaykh Ibn Baz rahimahullah replied: “When a woman declares her husband forbidden to her or likens him to one of her mahrams, the ruling is that of an oath (yamin), not dhhihar. Dhhihar is a…

Why Does a Women Require a Wali for Marriage? Sheikh Rashād Adh-Dhali'ee hafidahullah: A woman—regardless of whether she is mature, rational, young, or old—is not permitted to contract her own marriage. This is among the merits of the Shari'ah. The guardian is more knowledgeable of her best interests, whereas she may remain within her home and be unaware of many matters. Moreover, if anything were to occur on…

The Woman Who Says, ‘I Am Imprisoned’ Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen, may Allāh have mercy on him, said: “A woman who says, ‘Remaining in the house is like being imprisoned,’ is objecting to the words of Allāh: ‘And remain in your houses’ [Qur’an 33:33]. How can what Allāh has commanded be considered a prison? Yet, it may feel like a prison for those who wish to: * Display themselves indiscriminately, or * Join the…

A Woman’s ‘Awrah in the Presence of Other Women Question: What is permissible for a Muslim woman to reveal of her adornment or body in front of another Muslim woman? Sheikh Albani rahimahullah: This is a very important question, because the majority of Muslim women—and even their husbands—are in a state of serious neglect regarding this matter. There is a widespread juristic error in many fiqh books, which claims…

Jealousy That Pleases Allāh vs. Jealousy That Corrupts the Heart Jealousy is a noble trait, an innate refinement of human nature. When governed by Shari'ah, it elevates; when it exceeds its limits, it fails and corrupts. A man may be jealous for the sake of his family, and a woman for the sake of her husband, so that jealousy becomes a firm, chaste safeguard—it preserves love, protects homes, and prevents…

“Sorry” I have found no word in the dictionary of marital life that a husband says to his wife—or a wife to her husband—that is more delightful, sweeter, or more beautiful than the word “sorry.” Whenever either—or both—makes a mistake requiring apology, this word carries a tone like the strings of a harp, provided it is said with sincere intention to close the past and open a new page. Source:…

Two Common Causes of Loss of Modesty: Freemixing & Inappropriate Clothing Shaykh Ibn ʿUthaymeen (may Allāh have mercy on him) said: “When a woman loses her modesty, she becomes as if she were a man—or worse than a man. The loss of modesty has several causes, including: mixing freely with unrelated men, and wearing immodest clothing from a young age, which causes her to become accustomed to this behavior.” [Liqā'…

It Is Not Permissible for a Woman to Ask for Her Sister’s Divorce It is reported from Abu Hurayrah (may Allāh be pleased with him) that the Prophet ﷺ said: “It is not permissible for a woman to ask for her sister’s divorce in order to claim her share; for she only has what has been decreed for her.” (Agreed upon) Commentary: The Shari'ah has regulated dealings among people in buying and selling, clearly…

Is a Woman Required to Seek Her Husband’s Permission Before Making Up Missed Fasts? Question: What is the ruling on a woman who fasts without her husband’s knowledge for two days, knowing that this fasting is a makeup (qaḍā') for missed days of Ramaḍān, and she felt shy to inform her husband? If it were not permissible, would she be required to offer expiation (kaffārah)? Answer: A woman must make up the days of…

Divorce—even when a woman herself seeks it, fleeing from pain or seeking relief from harm—remains a deep wound in the depths of her soul. It may bring an end to one suffering, yet it leaves behind other pains; it may close the door to hardship, yet it opens doors to sorrow, confusion, and heartbreak. Written by: Faisal Al-Hashdi — may Allāh preserve him and elevate his rank.

Awaken, O daughter of noble lineage. Whoever seeks what is lawful should turn to real life, not to the doors of websites. Fear Allāh, and guard yourself, your reputation, and your honour, for faith and good conduct are a woman’s true crown. Written by: Faisal Al-Hashdi — may Allāh preserve him and elevate his rank.

Ruling on Breaking an Obligatory Make-Up Fast Sheikh ’Uthaymeen raḥimahullāh said: "As for making up a missed fast (qaḍāʾ), it is not permissible to break it, because the principle established by the textual evidence is that whoever begins an obligatory act is not allowed to discontinue it except for a legitimate legal excuse. For this reason, if a person pronounces the opening takbīr to begin an obligatory…
