irrigation." He said (to her): "Then, 'Umrah (to be offered) in
Ramadhaan is equal (in reward) to Hajj or Hajj with me." [Muslim]

stands at night and offers(supererogatory) prayers and awakens her
husband to offer prayer, and if he refuses, she sprinkles water on his
face." [Ahmad] [Al-Albaani: Saheeh]
• It was narrated on the authority of Umm Humayd, the wife of Abu
Humayd As-Saa'idi that she came to the Prophet and said, "'O Messenger
of Allaah! I like to offer prayers with you." He said: "I know that
you like to offer prayers with me; however, (you should know that)
your prayer in your sleeping place(inside your chamber) is better for
you than your prayer in your chamber; and your prayer in your chamber
is better for you than your prayer in your house; and your prayer in
your house is better for you than your prayer inthe mosque of your
people; and your prayer in the mosque of your people is better for you
thanyour prayer in my mosque." [Ahmad] [Al-Albaani: Saheeh]

(by Allaah)." [Al-Bukhaari]

woman prays at night, fasts by day, does such-and-such good deeds and
gives charity. However, she harmsher neighbors with her tongue.' On

from the people of Hell." They further said, "And such-and-such a
woman performs only the (obligatory five) written prayers, and gives
only yogurt as charity. However, she harms no one." On that the
Messenger of Allaah said: "She is from the inhabitants of Paradise."

Muhammad is! A woman will not fulfill the right ofher Lord (perfectly)
unless she fulfills the right of her husband fully; and if her husband

camel, she should not prevent him (fromdoing so)." [Ibn Maajah]
[Al-Albaani: Hasan]
• The Prophet said: "If a woman spends (gives charity) from the
foodstuff of her house but not wastefully, she will have a reward for
what she spent, her husband will have a reward for what he earned, and

reward of each other." [Al-Bukhaari]

have a husband?" She answered in the affirmative. He asked: "Howare
you with him?" She said, "I am never negligent in fulfilling his right
except when I am incapable." On that, he said: "Then, regard your
position with him for he either leads you to Paradise or to Hell."

reward from Allaah The Almighty for whatever difficultiesand troubles
you meet in your life, like pregnancy, post-partum bleeding, suckling,
raising children, menstruation, and so on, perchance your scale of
good deeds will be heavy, your sins willbe forgiven, and your rank
will beelevated high in Paradise.
