Mashallah sister sally! Congrats! You are a role model for me You seem so courageous and strong willed to make such a good decision May Allah (swt) guide us all and help us to preserve modesty on the face of this Earth..Ameen
InshaAllah make dua for me I will be joining you soon InshaAllah. I just want to get my studies out of my way first.
Radiyah
MaShaAllah you have pretty much summed that up quite well.
The prophet salaLahu Alai wasalm had such beautiful qualities, he was so gentle, kind, loving and yet honest towards his wives. May Allah help the muslim men of this ummah get those priceless qualities.
I see Radiyah has posted a couple of hadeeth, i'm going to add a couple about marriage etc
<b>Mu'adh bin Jabal (Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) has said:</b>
<b>"It is not permitted for a woman who believes in Allah to admit a man into her house whose visit is not approved of by her husband or that she should go out of the house against the will of her husband or she should obey the will of someone else in opposition to her husband's wishes."
</b>
<b>The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) has said:</b>
" The woman who dies in a state that her husband was in agreement with her, will certainly go to Paradise." (Tirmidhi)
In order to indicate the most reverend, esteemed, honorable and glorious position a husband has in the life of a wife, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) has observed:
<b>" It is forbidden for a human being to lay in prostration before another human. Had it been permissible, every wife would have been ordained by Allah to prostrate before her husband. The husband enjoys such a supreme status that if his whole body is covered with wounds and the wife licks them all with her tongue, the right of her husband is even then not fulfilled in full measure." </b>
SubhanaAllah.
<b>It is narrated by Anas that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said, </b>
<b>"When a man marries, he has fulfilled half of his religion, so let him fear Allah regarding the remaining half." </b>
<i><b>Once Aqra bin Babis ( Allah be please with him) visited the Messenger of Allah (Peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) was then engaged in caressing Hasan ( Allah be pleased with him). Being surprised at this act, Aqra Submitted:</b></i>
<b>" O Messenger of Allah (Peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) ! Do you also caress children, I have ten children but I have never fondled even one of them."</b>
Thereupon the Messenger of Allah (Peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) raised his eyes and remarked with a look at Aqra:
" If Allah has taken mercy and kindness out of your heart, what can I do?" (Abu Dawud)
voila
