Question:
The questioner says that she is a woman married to an elderly man who does not know how to perform wudu' and prayer correctly. Is it permissible for her to raise her voice at her husband so that he will perform wudu' and prayer correctly?
Answer:
If he can hear her, she should raise her voice only enough for him to hear. If he can hear her, there is no need to raise her voice; she should be calm, speak in a low voice, and be gentle with him. However, if he cannot hear her unless she raises her voice, then she should raise her voice when alerting him and teaching him.
