Make sure that you avoid vile language as much as possible especially with your children and refrain from talking back to your husband.
Noble sister, remember that your Paradise is our husband that Allah has made for you. If you obey Allah and then your husband, you will have taken the appropriate steps for going nearer to Jannah (Paradise). If you do not obey your husband, you have needlessly made him your enemy, for your destruction lies in your disobedience of him. Read our previous blogs on the enlightenment for Muslim women.
