Islamically, man has a confirmed right over his wife, and the Qur’an and Ahadith of the
Prophet PBUH has commanded her to obey him, treat him well and should obey her
husband l, even more than her own parents and brothers.
Allaah says in the Glorious Qur’an:
“Men are the protectors and maintainers of women, because Allaah has made one of
them to excel the other, and because they spend (to support them) from their means”
[al-Nisa’ 4:34]
Islam made it clear that the wife is under the obligation of obeying her husband, she is
required to obey him and exert her utmost effort to fulfill his needs so as to satisfy him
and be thankful. This is supported by the Hadeeth where the Prophet PBUH said:
“If the woman performs the five daily prayers, fasts the month of Ramadan, maintains
her chastity and obeys her husband, she will enter the Paradise of her Lord.”
Likewise, Allah Says in the Glorious Qur’an: (But if they obey you [once more], seek no

“Were I to order anyone to prostrate himself before anyone else, I would have ordered the
woman to prostrate herself before her husband.”

fasts) without the permission of her husband when he is at home; and she should not
allow anyone to enter his house except with his permission” [Reported by Al-Bukhari,
Authentic].
