11 Basic Rights of Wives in Islam According to Quran and Hadith
The Holy Prophet (PBUH) once said, “Such a woman when her husband sees her; she should please him and when her husband orders her, she should obey him and she should not adopt a manner about her chastity and property which should displace her husband” . The Hadith proves the importance of a husband in the wives’ world, but Islam also tells us the importance and rights of the wives in the husbands’ lives.
Here are some of the rights taken from a reliable Islamic studies book:
1. A HUSBAND SHOULD HELP HIS WIFE IN DOMESTIC AFFAIRS

2. A HUSBAND SHOULD SELFLESSLY DEVOTE HIMSELF TOWARDS HIS WIFE, GIVING HER UNCONDITIONAL LOVE
