1. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from ibn Khalid from his father from ‘Abd Allah ibn al-Qasim al-Hadramiy from ‘Abd Allah ibn Sinan who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘In the time of the Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, a man left for a journey and instructed his wife not to leave her house until he comes back. He (the Imam) said that her father became ill so the woman sent someone to the Holy Prophet saying, ‘My husband has gone on a journey and has instructed me not to leave the house until he comes back but my father has become ill; if you command me to visit him and return home. 5 The Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, said, ‘No, you must stay home and obey your husband.’ He (the Imam) has said that her father’s illness became serious and she sent a messenger the second time asking, ‘If you command me to visit him.’ He (the Messenger of Allah) said, ‘No, you must stay home and obey your husband.’ He (the Imam) has said that her father died and she sent a messenger to him (the Messenger of Allah) if she can join in his funeral for Salat (prayer).’ He (the Messenger of Allah) said, ‘No, you must stay home and obey your husband.’ He (the Imam) has said that her father was buried and the Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, sent her a message that said, ‘Allah has forgiven you and your father because of your obeying your husband.’”

2. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Ali ibn al-Hakam from Ali ibn abu Hamzah from abu Basir who has said the following: “I once heard abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), saying that once the Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, gave a speech for women and said, ‘O the community of women, you must give charity even if it is from your jewelries, a date or a piece of a date because the majority of you will be the fuel for the fire of hell if you frequently abuse and curse your associate (husband).’ A woman from banu Salim who had reason said, ‘O Messenger of Allah, we are mothers, who carry in our wombs and breastfeed. From us are daughters who highly value (parents and relatives) and kind sisters.’ The Messenger of Allah was moved emotionally and said, ‘Childbearing, birth-giving, breastfeeding and kindhearted ones, only if they do not bring to their husband’s (bed) something that will make them to feel the heat of fire (due to involving themselves in indecent acts).”’

By Allah, we are not unbelievers to be punished and to become of the people of the fire.’ The Messenger of Allah said, ‘This will happen if you deny the rights of your husbands.’”
