How to be Successful Husband

How to be a Successful Husband
by Muhammad Alshareef
1. Dress up for your wife, look clean and smell good.
When was the last time us men went shopping for designer pajamas? Just like the husband wants his wife to look nice for him, she also wants her husband to dress up for her too. Remember that Rasulullah (saw) would always start with Miswak when returning home and always loved the sweetest smells. 2. Use the cutest names for your wife.
Rasulullah (saw) had nicknames for his wives, ones that they loved. Call your wife by the most beloved names to her, and avoid using names that hurt her feelings. 3. Don't treat her like a fly.
We never think about a fly in our daily lives until it 'bugs' us. Similarly, a wife will do well all day - which brings no attention from the husband - until she does something to 'bug' him. Don't treat her like this; recognize all the good that she does and focus on that. 4. If you see wrong from your wife, try being silent and do not comment!
This is one of the ways Rasulullah (saw) used when he would see something inappropriate from his wives (ra). It's a technique that few Muslim men have mastered. 5. Smile at your wife whenever you see her and embrace her often.
Smiling is Sadaqah and your wife is not exempt from the Muslim Ummah. Imagine life with her constantly seeing you smiling. Remember also those Ahadith when Rasulullah (saw) would kiss his wife before leaving for Salah, even if he was fasting. 6. Thank her for all that she does for you.
Then thank her again! Take, for example, a dinner at your house. She makes the food, cleans the home, and a dozen other tasks to prepare. And sometimes the only acknowledgement she receives is that there needed to be more salt in the soup. Don't let that be; thank her! 7. Ask her to write down the last ten things you did for her that made her happy.
Then go and do them again. It may be hard to recognize what gives your wife pleasure. You don't have to play a guessing game, ask her and work on repeating those times in your life. 8. Don't belittle her desires. Comfort her.
Sometimes the men may look down upon the requests of their wives. Rasulullah (saw) set the example for us in an incident when Safiyyah (ra) was crying because, as she said, he had put her on a slow camel. He wiped her tears, comforted her, and brought her the camel. 9. Be humorous and Play games with your wife.
Look at how Rasulullah (saw) would race his wife A'ishah (ra) in the desert. When was the last time we did something like that? 10. Always remember the words of Allah's Messenger (saw), "The best of you are those who treat their families the best. And I am the best amongst you to my family." Try to be the best! In conclusion: Never forget to make Dua to Allah Ta'ala to make your marriage successful. And Allah ta'ala knows best.

Saat Sang Maha Kuasa Berkehendak

Saat Sang Maha Kuasa Berkehendak Oleh:  Yumna Umm Nusaybah (Member Revowriter London) . Datangnya tidak disangka  Mengenalnya pun tanpa terduga Membayangkan pun belum pernah Apalagi berangan angan untuk menikah . Namun kedua anak adam ini sejak awal memang tak punya keraguan Bahwa mereka tercipta untuk saling melengkapi  Bahwa masing-masing akan menjadi penawar kesendirian  Bahwa mereka dipertemukan HANYA karena Sang Maha Kuasa berkehendak demikian . 2 tahun bukan waktu yang lama Pun bukan waktu yang singkat Saat hasrat ingin menunaikan Sunnah RasulNya Terhalang oleh pandemi yang mendera . Namun memang benar … Bahwa dibalik penantian  Ada yang ingin Allah سبحانه Ùˆ تعالى ajarkan . Kerelaan sang bunda menerima kenyataan Keyakinan pasangan bahwa mereka memilih jalan dan calon yang benar . Butuh waktu yang panjang …  Bagi seorang Bunda  Untuk menata hati dan merapikan benak Melepas anak pertama tumpuan jiwa Memulai hidup baru di ujung dunia  Bersama l...

Holier-than-thou

#OPEy2021Day10 . Holier-Than-Thou . oleh Yumna Umm Nusaybah (Member of Revowriter London dan Co-founder Dokter Kembar) . Bisa kah menebak arti dari judul diatas?  Holier-than-thou adalah sebuah idiom dalam bahasa Inggris yang dimaknai sebagai  obnoxiously pious; sanctimonious; self-righteous. Istilah kerennya sok suci atau sok alim. . Ide ini bisa jadi ada dalam diri kita sendiri. Atau bisa juga tuduhan yang dilemparkan kepada kita. . Jika seseorang memandang bahwa dirinya lebih bertakwa, lebih comitted, lebih saleh dari orang lain karena dia sudah sangat taat pada aturan agama dalam kesehariannya, maka hal ini sangatlah berbahaya. Bisa-bisa dia melihat orang lain ‘tidak berharga’. Lebih buruk dan lebih rendah posisinya. Akibatnya, bukannya akhlak dan kebaikannya menarik orang disekitarnya, tapi justru dia nampak sebagai individu yang toxic, menyebalkan dan terkesan sok alim. Padahal ke’aliman’ dan kebaikan seseorang bukanlah self-proclaim atau pengakuan sendiri. Tapi kebaikan...

my Special Student

Seneng...happy lega dan terharu...itulah yang aku rasakan ketika murid 'istimewaku' menyelesaikan Iqra jilid 6 minggu yang lalu...percaya atau nggak aku menitikkan airmata dan menangis sesenggukan dihadapan dia, ibu dan kakak perempuannya....yah...airmata bahagia karena dia yang setahun yang lalu tidak tahu sama sekali huruf hijaiyah kini bisa membaca Al Quran meski masih pelan dan terbata bata...tapi makhrojul hurufnya bagus, ghunnahnya ada, bacaan Mad-nya benar....dan aku bayangkan jika seterusnya dia membaca Quran dan mungkin mengajarkannya kepada orang lain maka inshaAllah akan banyak pahala berlipat ganda... Namanya Tasfiyah ...seorang gadis cilik bangladeshi berusia 6 tahun saat pertama kali aku bertemu dengannya....Ibunya sengaja mengundangku datang ke rumah nya karena memang tasfi tidak suka dan tidak mau pergi ke masjid kenapa? karena sangat melelahkan...bayangkan aja 2 jam di setiap hari sepulang sekolah, belum lagi belajar bersama dengan 30 orang murid didampingi 1 ...
