Marital rights and household conduct

Al Hakam Week 25th September 2026

عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، رضى الله عنه أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ: لاَ يَحِلُّ لِلْمَرْأَةِ أَنْ تَصُومَ وَزَوْجُهَا شَاهِدٌ إِلاَّ بِإِذْنِهِ، وَلاَ تَأْذَنَ فِي بَيْتِهِ إِلاَّ بِإِذْنِهِ، وَمَا أَنْفَقَتْ مِنْ نَفَقَةٍ عَنْ غَيْرِ أَمْرِهِ فَإِنَّهُ يُؤَدَّى إِلَيْهِ شَطْرُهُ.‏

Hazrat Abu Hurairah (ra) narrated that the Holy Prophet (sa) said, “It is not lawful for a woman to observe a voluntary fast while her husband is present without his permission, nor may she permit anyone to enter his house without his permission. Whatever she spends [in charity from his wealth] without his specific instruction, he shall receive half of its reward.”

(Sahih al-Bukhari, Kitab an-nikah, Bab la ta’dhanu l-mar’atu fi bayti zawjiha li ahadin illa bi idhnih, Hadith 5195)
