What are the duties of the wife?
Does the wife's responsibility include serving her husband such as making bread, washing clothes, etcetera
Ali Nawaz from Karachi.
See, the husband and wife have a marriage agreement
What is the definition of Nikah, and what is the agreement made?
And what Shariat has kept for her, what is the nature of her marriage to increase the breed.
Now there are two ways to breed.
the man and woman should be left free like animals. Like donkeys to horses.
In Europe, children are born without marriage.
The only thing is to make the same agreement that the woman will be bound.
Women will come to the husband's house after marriage. And that agreement will do the same.
She will agree that now she has only one man in her life forever.
The husband will be authorized for the woman who is,
inside my house
Now for my sake that now she will breed me and take care of my children
so now, it's all my responsibility, because basically, the advantage of a Shari'ah
is that whoever is bound to someone they have the responsibility.
An example of this is the responsibility of all the salaries of the army being in the hands of the government.
Why the soldier binds himself with the responsibility of the government.
For the government, soldiers bound themselves, he cannot do any other work for the direction of the country.
everything is the responsibility of this government.
What judges do they cannot do other business.
They can't work. They sit in front of the courts.
The government's responsibility is to pay them or not.
And so on and so on, there are many examples of this
So now the woman bounds herself.
Yes, I now bound myself that I will spend my life with this man, and apart from this I will not have a relationship with anyone.
From this, I will have a child and I will take care of that child.
This is the basic agreement of marriage. When is there more marriage than this?
The basic things of marriage are not more than this, then it is the responsibility of the man that he will give basic benefits.
Because now the women can't earn so, it is your responsibility to feed her
Whatever is left to be given is to each other, as per the society.
Baking bread, all these things which come under the purview of remembrance
If four men were traveling somewhere, then all four would have shared the work.
Now four men are traveling somewhere. One said man, now we have taken one for cooking, then bring tomatoes
Do this, you put wood on the cart. Now do another.
Where is it written in the Qur'an Hadith that when I go on the journey I should burn the wood?
Brother, you should be doing at least some of the work right.
If you live in the form of a group, then the work is divided
so, in the same way, a husband and wife when running a house, then the work will be divided.
Now the way of dividing the work is either women do the work outside the house or the man does the work inside the house.
It is also against the Shari'ah and it is also against the nature
that the man is made to be outside the house.
So it is his responsibility that when the woman gives him a vegetable list to bring,
then he should bring it or arrange a servant for him also.
Similarly, if men put the responsibility of the woman in the house to wash the clothes by sweeping the house.
If all this is your responsibility then it is not against Shariat.
It is not against nature, but it is according to Sharia.
Whenever someone lives in the form of a group, then the works are divided
new scholars say with great pleasure that if the woman is not responsible for the household chores
Hence this is not acceptable in society.
Our Prophet made a decision between Hazrat Fatima and Hazrat Ali.
That Hazrat Fatma would do household chores and Hazrat Ali would work outside
so this is the principal way of the one Shariat which is always going on in the house.
If the woman doesn't work, she says that am I a maid who should sweep the house.
Am I a maid who should do all housework
Even man can say that am I mad to work for you.
Man cannot say all these, hence it is his responsibility to do the work.
In this way, the household chores are the responsibility of the woman
If she does not work and live in a joint family.
Many sisters-in-law, and little children, then all of them will be responsible for the work, and if the mother-in-law lives there
then her power is more in the house.
Shariat sometimes has the respect of elders on the younger ones
so everybody should take care of it.
It is also in the Shariat if it had happened during the time of Sahaba, it would have been happening till today, and yes,
If you married a woman from a family where there is no custom of work among women in homes.
There are servants in their houses like you got married to a very wealthy family.
You married a woman of a very high standard. Her living standard was very high. There is no custom in their homes.
Yes, women do not do work.
Like it happens in big houses that women are not working because servants working for them.
We have friends who are rich.
If their car gets damaged, then they don't want to get up and take it to the mechanic.
Immediately call. His driver would bring another car.
They have many vehicles, even their wives do not have any problems.
So if someone's living standard is at the same level
If a woman does not do household chores then there is no harm in that.
Because the Qur'an dictates that treat your wives properly.
Then each one has a better way than the other
It is different, if a woman belongs to such a house where she serves her parents in her house
if she used to do all the work herself in the house, then when she comes to her in-laws then she has to work.
And if her standard of living was so high
that the servants used to do all the work in their homes
those men should not tell their wives to do household chores
but it will be the duty of a man to arrange a servant for her
man's responsibility to give the same standard of living
It will be the responsibility of the man to arrange for the servant
Normally women work even though there are servants working but still, women also look after the household things
Cooking food is also their responsibility
These days new scholars are saying women don't have the responsibility of husbands or the housework
This is totally wrong
As I said everybody has to do their part of the work without this things won't work out in the house.
