Requirements for a Muslim Wife    

A woman has a very serious role in any family. In most cases, she takes greater responsibility for kids’ and house care. Some women try to work at the same time, and even then stay beautiful and attractive. In case the girl decides to connect her life with a Muslim, she should discover what the man expects from his wife. Religion has a great impact on the Muslim’s lifestyle, hence the woman needs to know all peculiarities that are going to shape her new life.

Obedience to husband

The first rule of the Muslim family is that for the wife the husband’s word is the law, and the wife has no right to disobey her spouse unless he goes beyond the Sharia or requires the commission of sinful acts. In this case, the rule «there is no obedience to the creation in disobedience of the Creator» is used. The wife should in a mild form convince her husband by giving evidence and arguments from the Koran and Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad.

Keeping household    

The task of a wife in a Muslim family is to manage the household and try to please her husband in every way. A woman can go to work, but she must ask her husband for permission first, and only with his consent she can get a job. But a woman must remember that no one relieves her of responsibility for household chores.

Caring of herself

An important rule of Islam that should be observed by a woman is that the beauty of a wife in a Muslim family is intended only for the husband, and not for everyone around. The wife should take care of herself to appeal to her spouse and hide her beauty from everyone else. This means that a woman when meeting other men, should lower her eyes and wear clothes that will hide her charms. It’s also disallowed to attract outside men with clothes, jewelry, makeup, or incense because everything that attracts a man should be used only inside the family.

Being a passionate lover

Another rule according to Islam that the wife of a Muslim must observe is that she has no right to deny her husband intimacy unless this day is the day of menstruation. She can also refuse her husband intimacy if she is sick, during the Hajj, or in the period after childbirth.

Asking permission

A Muslim’s wife does not leave her home unless the husband has given her consent. She cannot enter someone else’s house if the husband did not give her permission to do that, and all her affairs that need to be resolved outside the house, whether it is shopping or visiting her parents, the wife must always coordinate with her husband.

How to Be a Good Muslim Wife?

If you want to build a strong happy family with a Muslim, then consider a few great tips on how to become a good Muslim wife:

Invest in your relationships

Be open with your spouse and share all your thoughts, fears, and ideas.  Keep the household well, and try to create a cozy atmosphere at home so that your man feels comfortable after a hard-working day. Do your best to enjoy life together, for example, try new things, arrange interesting activities, etc. Avoid arguing, and if you are sad about something, say this calmly.

Show your love

 Everyone loves care and signs of attention. It is especially true when it comes to Muslims. Choose the way that he appreciates best of all, and act. For instance, your husband appreciates physical affection, then kisses and hugs him a lot. Be thankful for everything that he does for you. Enjoy physical intimacy and stay loving when you have to have breaks in intimate life.

Be pious

Religion is a significant part of Muslim’s life; hence you should make prayer a part of your life. See Allah in everything that is connected with your husband, his actions, deeds, and words. Dress in a way to show your relationships with your husband and Allah.

Final Thoughts

Luckily today, not all Muslims are following the Koran strictly. Most men decide to have a modern lifestyle, and some of the above mentioned requirements are not important for them. They feel free to look for a spouse online, on a popular dating website instead of starting the family with a local girl. If you consider these simple but still very effective tips, you have very high chances to become a successful Muslim’s wife.
