🔸 They wish to extinguish the light of Allah, but Allah will perfect His Light, though the disbelievers detest it. 🔸

When the nation whose men are jealousy about their womenfolk, seeking but their women’s decency and honor, their women will be chaste women. And that’s a successful nation.

One of Allah’s attributes is jealousy. Allah is jealous and the Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم is jealousy. Also, jealousy among human beings is two categories:
One of them is recommended when it’s suspicious.
And the other is hateful when there’s no suspicion.

Sa’d ibn Muaadh رضي الله عنه when the verse was revealed, if someone found a man with his wife, in relations, call upon four witnesses. He told the Prophet, O Messenger of Allah, if I saw someone with my wife, you expect me to go and find four witnesses?! By Him who sent you with the truth, if I find a man with my wife in relations, I will end him viscously. And let Allah do to me what He wants to do. Look at the protective jealousy he had!

One time Umar Ibn Al-Khattab رضي الله عنه was sitting outside, a man was running with his weapon dripping and a group of people were chasing after him. Then the man approached Umar and sat next to him. Umar inquired what was wrong? The group of people said to Umar, this man killed our man. Umar asked the man who sat next to him, is that true what they are saying against you? The man said, I found a man with my wife, if it was was him - yes I killed him. Umar shook the sword and said, if that happens again, do it again.

Look at the women of this nation today, you see them exposing themselves left, right and centre, walking the streets like men and what more, their husbands are walking behind them encouraging them! Where is the Muslim protective jealousy that is required on the part of every believer?! The one Allah loves!

Imam Ahmad, "Umm Saleh lived with me 30 for years. We never had a single disagreement!"

-*The effort of {(both)} of them accomplished that!*

Comment:
-When my mother passed away (rahimaha Allah), my father wrote in his condolence to me, the hadith:

"If a woman prays her five (daily prayers), fasts her month (Ramadaan), guards her chastity and obeys her husband, it will be said to her: Enter Paradise by whichever of the gates of Paradise you wish.”

My father said, "Allah is my witness she did that and more. For the fifty years I was with your mother she never disagreed with me.
I lived pleased with your mother, and Allah is my witness she died while i was pleased with her, may Allah be pleased with her."

_______
May Allah raise her rank to ferdous, and grant my father a long life full of deeds.

May Allah delight your hearts, and bring coolness to your eyes with spouses like that.

Shaykh Ahmad Jibrīl حفظه الله
To end the Rights of the Wife Series:

An explanation and reflection on the Hadīth of the 11 women who sat down to talk about their husbands. Many lessons can be drawn from this Hadīth regarding women and their natures, their likes and dislikes, the causes which make them pleased with their husbands and happy in their marriages, desirable qualities in a man for many women, and the manner of our beloved Nabi’ (صلى الله عليه وسلم) in speaking to and dealing with his wife (رضي الله عنها). The denoscriptions of the relatives of Abu Zar' were left out due to lack of space.

Explanation taken from the book “The Fragile Vessels: Rights and Obligations Between the Spouses in Islām”

Insha’Allah, we’ll now move on to the rights of the husband.

وَذَكِّرْهُم بِأَيَّىٰمِ ٱللَّهِ ۚ إِنَّ فِى ذَٰلِكَ لَـَٔايَـٰتٍ لِّكُلِّ صَبَّارٍ شَكُورٍ

“and remind them of the days of Allah. Indeed in that are signs for everyone patient and grateful.” [Surah Ibrahim]

Sometimes, Allah suddenly grants his slave a whiff of that sweet, pure, true Imaan and Taqwa despite his not being deserving of it nor having strived hard to attain it. And then, out of His perfect wisdom, He snatches it back from him just as suddenly, only to leave him chasing and longing after it for the remainder of his days in this temporary life.

How beautiful are those moments when you stumble across remnants of an old life that serve as memories of some of your best days with your Creator. How beautiful and sweet is that aroma when you abruptly catch a whiff of it again, all these long years later! And how tragic is that realization when your current reality comes crashing down around you straight after, as you're left questioning how far off you've wondered and what you've become since those days departed.

The golden days have disappeared and slipped through the fingers and left us in agony over their departure. It is as if we wander through life only in hopes of catching a whiff of their scent around the next corner, guided solely by our dreams of finding those sweet moments and days once more.

But how kind is our Lord! Just as we begin to slip into the abyss of despair of ever finding the light as we did in those days, we find the ever so faint scent wafting to us from directions we didn't expect. How our determination sparks and our hopes flutter as we sprint after that faint aroma, hoping to be led back into that treasured past!

And so our lives pass, in pursuit of the sweetness of a day or a night we spent with Allah that perhaps no one knows of except Him, but they were moments that we would give up our entire lifetime to bask in the glory of once more.

Truly, there was a Paradise in this life, but moments of carelessness seized it from us. How desperate we have been in our pursuit of it since then! How our determination falters and sparks again in the face of its traces.
"It goes like this: the one who takes drugs is called a druggie, the one who gambles is called a gambler, the one who plays games is called a player, the one who does Zina' is called a Zani, the one who deals in Riba' is called a Riba' consumer (Sooth Khor), the one who gives bribes is called a briber, the one who does Bid'ah is a Mubtadi', the one who does Fisq is a Faasiq, but the one who does Shirk is a Muslim?! The one who does Kufr is a Muslim?!

No! The one who does Shirk is a Mushrik! The one who does Kufr is a Kaafir!"

— Shaykh 'Abdul Jabbar Shakir (حفظه الله)
One thing that the people of desires will never be able to shake off, no matter how much they attempt to mask it, is the feeling of unsurety & doubt that plagues their hearts. Regardless of how much they try to refute & debate to appear in the right, those feelings always remain.

As for those upon the Manhaj of the Messenger ﷺ, they have full conviction that they're upon the truth & nothing but the truth. The trials that they face in this path only increase them in that conviction, and their hearts increase in steadfastness despite being tried & mocked.

We never forget the words of our Shaykh Musa (حفظه الله), when he faced the torture in prison, his family abandoned by the world, illness, the illness of his wife, loss of property, loss of nearly everything, every last person he knew nowhere to be found & more & more.

He was asked: Ya Abati, did you ever get doubts in your Iman, or your Iman become weak ever in this trial that we are going through?

He said: Habibi, if this did not happen to us, that is when I would have doubts. If this did not happen to us, that is when I would doubt the path.
Imām Mālik ibn Anas رحمه الله said:

"Indeed the wives of the Sahabah sought the Hereafter, so they did not care about the poverty of their husbands."

Imām Mālik ibn Anas رحمه الله said: "Indeed the wives of the Sahabah sought the Hereafter, so they did not care about the poverty of their husbands." [Sahih Fiqh al-Sunnah 4/403]
The women of the Salaf used say to their husbands:

“Beware of haram earnings, for we can be patient with poverty, but not hellfire.”

Today, many sisters are the ones who pressure their husbands to earn Harām, and encourage them to pursue jobs in which they would have to compromise the Deen of Allāh. May Allāh guide us. Seeking Halāl rizq is one of the most difficult tests for a man, especially in The West. Sisters should be pillars of support, aiding their husbands and encouraging them to give up Harām jobs and seek Halāl rizq, even if that means living on a tight budget or even in poverty.

Going without a couple meals in a day is better than eating your full fill of food provided by Harām means.
