Description

Attributes of the Righteous Wife sets out the qualities Shaykh Abdur Razzaq ibn Abdul Muhsin Al-Abbaad identifies from the Qur’an and Sunnah as marking a righteous wife.

The book works through these qualities in turn — affection and good treatment toward the husband, guarding his honour and property, care in speech, and attentiveness in the home — grounding each in narrations from the Prophet (peace be upon him) with full hadith references in the footnotes. A section on the rights of spouses covers the mutual obligations of husband and wife, including the husband’s duty of kindness and mercy toward his wife, with the Qur’anic basis for the marital bond as a source of affection and tranquility.

The style is that of a scholarly treatise rather than a self-help book: the texts are quoted, then explained briefly.

Frequently purchased as a gift for a bride, for newly married couples, or for study circles on marriage. English text with Arabic hadith and footnoted sources.
