๐ In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
๐ Some tips for the wife to cope with missing her husband,
Her other half and soulmate whom Allah has chosen,
Whether he works far away or he travels often,
Or he's wed to multiple wives to raise more children.
~•~
The fact you long for his presence when he is absent,
Or you get worried or cranky when you're not near him,
Is clear evidence you care about your dear husband.
Your love is genuine with such special connection.
~•~
Take note of this, regardless of where your husband goes
On earth, you're both under the same skies, while Allah knows
How much you miss each other as your affection grows
With every thought of him for sweet gestures he has shown.
~•~
You're not alone on nights when he's not by your pillow,
As Allah the Most Kind sees you, ready to comfort
Your heart with solace whenever you read Allah's Words.
Keep calm knowing this world's challenges won't take too long.
~•~
After a distressing evening full of thunderstorms
Follow dawn and a brighter morning with sunlight warm.
Just as you'd admire a rose's scent more than its thorns,
Focus on loving Allah more and gaining rewards.
~•~
There's reward in being patient with Allah's Decree,
Contentment in believing after trials come ease,
At least if not on earth then in Jannah finally
Where the pious souls can enjoy love eternally.
~•~
Missing your spouse? Mention him in Du'as lovingly.
Pray that Jannah's where you'll reunite ultimately.
Understand that when you go through distress or unease,
Sins leave. So persevere with Sabr and loyalty.

Ali Al-Qari said, "That she prostrates to her husband is due to the number of his rights over her and her difficulty in maintaining gratitude for them. This rhetorical point conveys the obligation of the wife to obey her husband in his rights. Indeed, prostration is not lawful to anyone other than Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala."

๐ Ibn 'Abbas RadhiAllahu 'anhuma narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said: "I was shown the Hellfire and (found) that the majority of its dwellers were women who were ungrateful." It was asked, "Do they disbelieve in Allah?" (or are they ungrateful to Allah?) He SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam replied, "They are ungrateful to their husbands and are ungrateful for the favors and the good (charitable deeds) done to them. If you have always been good (benevolent) to one of them and then she sees something in you (not of her liking), she will say, 'I have never received any good from you."
