Advice To Musilm Women Regarding Their Husbands, Part 2

O women, be careful how you treat your husband, for he is your door to jannah (paradise), or the door to jahannam (hell).

And the proof for this is in the authentic hadeeth in Ahmad:

Husayn Ibn Muhsin reported from a paternal aunt of his (1) who went to the prophet (saw) concerning some need of hers, that after she has met her need, the Messenger of Allaah said to her: “Do you have a husband?“

She said, “Yes.”

He said: “How are you with him?“

She said, “I would do everything for him except that which I am not able to do.“

He said: “Be careful how you are with him, for he is your Paradise and your Hell.“
