Re: 10 Tips How to be a Successful Husband
It's according to the way you take it.
though Cotton filled the whole room is not as worthy as a small diamond
and in sea even big Alligators don't stand a chance before the huge Whale.
Think wise and decide Wise

· Giving her the feeling that her opinion is important to you.
· Studying her opinion carefully.

· Ask pious relatives and friends to take care of the family in your absence.
· Give her enough money for what she might need.
· Try to stay in touch with her whether by phone, e-mail, letters, etc..
· Return as soon as possible.
· Bring her a gift!

· The husband needs to be generous within his financial capabilities. He should not be a miser with his money (nor wasteful).
· He gets rewards for all what he spends on her sustenance even for a small piece of bread that he feeds her by his hand (hadeith).
· He is strongly encouraged to give to her before she asks him.
· Following the Sunnah in removing hair from the groin and underarms.
· Always being clean and neat.
· Put on perfume for her.
· It is obligatory to do it habitually if you have no excuse (sickness, etc.)
· Start with "Bismillah" and the authentic du'a.
· Enter into her in the proper place only (not the anus).
· Begin with foreplay including words of love.
· Continue until you have satisfied her desire.
· Relax and joke around afterwards.
· Avoid intercourse during the monthly period because it haram
· Do what you can to avoid damaging her level of Hiyaa (shyness and modesty) such as taking your clothes together instead of asking her to do it first while he is looking on.
· Avoid positions during intercourse that may harm her such as putting pressure on her chest and blocking her breath, especially if you are heavy.
· Choose suitable times for intercourse and be considerate as sometimes she maybe sick or exhausted.
· Avoid disclosing private information such as bedroom secrets, her personal problems and other private matters.
· Wake her up in the last third of the night to pray "Qiyam-ul-Layl" (extra prayer done at night with long sujood and ruku'ua).
· Teach her what you know of the Qur'an and its tafseer.
· Teach her "Dhikr" (ways to remember Allah by the example of the prophet) in the morning and evening.
· Encourage her to spend money for the sake of Allah such as in a charity sale.
· Take her to Hajj and Umrah when you can afford to do so.
· Take her to visit her family and relatives, especially her parents.
· Invite them to visit her and welcome them.
· Give them presents on special occasions.
· Help them when needed with money, effort, etc..

This includes:
· The basics of Islam
· Her duties and rights
· Reading and writing
· Encouraging her to attend lessons and halaqahs
· Islamic rules (ahkam) related to women
· Buying Islamic books and tapes for the home library
· Ensure she is wearing proper hijab before leaving house.
· Restrict free mixing with non-mahram men.
· Avoiding excess jealousy.
Examples of this are:
1- Analyzing every word and sentence she says and overloading her speech by meanings that she did not mean
2- Preventing her from going out of the house when the reasons are just.
3- Preventing her from answering the phone.
· Problems are expected in every marriage so this is normal. What is wrong is excessive responses and magnifying problems until a marital breakdown.
· Anger should be shown when she exceeds the boundaries of Allah SWT, by delaying prayers, backbiting, watching prohibited scenes on TV, etc..
· Forgive the mistakes she does to you.
· First, implicit and explicit advice several times.
· Then by turning your back to her in bed (displaying your feelings). Note that this does not include leaving the bedroom to another room, leaving the house to another place, or not talking with her.
· The last solution is lightly hitting (when allowable) her. In this case, the husband should consider the following:
· Accounting her only for larger mistakes.
· Forgive mistakes done to him but account her for mistakes done in Allah's rights, e.g. delaying prayers, etc..
· Remember all the good she does whenever she makes a mistake.
· Remember that all humans err so try to find excuses for her such as maybe she is tired, sad, having her monthly cycle or that her commitment to Islam is growing.
· Avoid attacking her for the bad cooking of the food as the Prophet PBUH never blamed any of his wives for this. If he likes the food, he eats and if he doesn't then he does not eat and does not comment.
· Before declaring her to be in error, try other indirect approaches that are more subtle than direct accusations
· Escape from using insults and words that may hurt her feelings.
· When it becomes necessary to discuss a problem wait until you have privacy from others.
· Waiting until the anger has subsided a bit can help to keep a control on your words.

*Threads Merged*
Marriage is a partnership and the effort has to be made from both sides with sincerety to make it work. All relationships are prone to conflicts now and then and maritial relations even more so. Issues of compatibility keep cropping up.
Following the Sunnah is the ideal way for making sure there is harmony, peace, tranqulity and affection within a household. The rights of husband and wife were laid down based on Hadiths and were actually practiced by the prophets, its easier said than done in these times, but, that does not mean that we consider it impossible.
In this day and age we are much more selfish than the appearance we give on the surface, all women feel good when reading how a husband should behave and vice versa, we instead should ponder on our own self and try to concentrate on the what is required of us before we read about what is required from ones spouse. The need to correct others is always compelling but the key is to first correct ourselves and leave the the other person to do so as well. This will result in a better relationship between the husband and wife.
When we show courtesy, we get same from the other side, when we show love and affection, we get same from the other side. However, if we demand those things first and try to return it on that condition we are basicall making fools of ourselves and in the process achieve nothing.
For instance take the case of "respect", it is always to be earned, it cannot be given on a silver platter to anyone. You cannot force anyone to respect you as whatever respect the other had for you can be gone in seconds if such demand is made. This is something which is different from love and affection which really requires one to take a step first and than expect same in return.
My brothers and sisters, in order to have a good relationship one has to consider a common phrase in Urdu which I recall is something like this, "pehlay apni gereban me jhaank kar to dekheen"
I just thought I should put forth my opinion which is by the way just my opinion and anyone can agree or disagree. My intentions however are very clean when I say what I said in the foregoing paragraphs.
May Allah guide us to take the right path where we may find the true happiness from within.

Umm... she doesn't have to wear hijab in front of her husband. And nick names are not makrooh, only those with bad meanings are.
