What does a man say when his wife is brought to him?

The Shaykh : Then, when she is brought to him, he takes her by the forelock and says, "O Allah, I ask You for her goodness and the goodness of what You created her with, and I seek refuge in You from her evil and the evil of what You created her with." But does he say this aloud, or does he say it in secret?
The questioner : It depends on the situation.
The Shaykh : We see that there is a distinction in this. If the woman is educated and knows that this is prescribed, let him say it aloud, because she may perhaps say "Ameen" to his supplication. But if she is ignorant, I fear that if he says it, she will be repelled by it and say, "I am in evil." Yes, and in any case, every occasion has its own speech. And Allah knows best. Is the time up?
