The wife’s reward in advising her husband to pray
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is Umm Basam. She says: A woman married a young man, and she is fulfilling her religious obligations, praise be to Allah. However, this husband tires her out, especially when she advises him regarding his standing for the Fajr and ‘Asr prayers. He prays at home after waking up from sleep. She says: I sit by his head for hours, and some of the time passes. Does she have a reward for that?
Answer:
She has a reward for that, and she should be patient with it until he gets used to getting up and going to the mosque. She should not leave him. If he insists that he does not pray except when he gets up, even if it is after the time has passed, she may ask for separation from him and not remain with him. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
