The Meaning of the Hadith: Whoever Prefers His Wife Over His Mother
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Salih, we move on to this message from Khalid from Unaizah. He says: What is the meaning of the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "Whoever prefers his wife over his mother, may the curse of Allah be upon him"?
Answer:
I do not know a hadith with this exact wording, but it is known that the right of the mother is great, and being dutiful to her is obligatory. This right comes after the right of Allah the Exalted. Her husband also has the right of marriage. So the mother has a right, and the wife has a right. One must not transgress against one of them for the benefit of the other, but rather give each one her obligatory right. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you,
