💌 A patient wife's choice to let her husband remarry
Does not mean she's too weak that she lets her soulmate "cheat".
A Muslimah's patience with Allah's Qadr/Decree
To allow men to care for multiple wives fairly
Does not equate to "normalizing cheating", really.
~•~
If you wish to ensure that your husband never "cheats",
Keep him in your house, monitor when and why he leaves,
So he's shielded from glancing at ladies in the streets,
Stopped from dealing with female customers and colleagues,
And see if you can freeze his heart too so he can't "feel".
~•~
Allah the Most Wise knows best. Most men generally
Are polygynous, capable of loving many
Women equally, specially if their looks vary,
From fair and lovely to dark beauty, slightly heavy
To slim - each lady with her own personality.
~•~
If you, as your husband's wife, can sense undoubtedly
That he likes another lady romantically,
Warn him to lower his gaze and fear Allah, firstly,
To change jobs or work nearby him if necessary,
And remind him there's penalty in adultery.
~•~
Then inform him that if his feelings for her are real,
It's his right to legalize that love and remarry,
While you gain more of Allah's Love as you patiently
Train yourself to stay strong, accept Allah's Destiny,
And silence the proud ego that fears polygyny.

📖 Abu Huraira RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "If I were to order anyone to prostrate to another, I would have ordered a wife to prostrate before her husband."

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."
