Description: The husband seeks from his wife that she should be an ideal wife: affectionate, kind, receptive, obedient to his command, attractive, enticing, charming and other than that. However, on the other hand some husbands dishonor their wives and neglect the obligatory rights that have been placed upon them. In this beneficial treatise the Shaykh advises the following types of husbands: The one who abandons the prayer The one who abandons the home, The frequent traveler, The merchant, The confused, The caller to Allah, The Finagler, The one who belittles his wife, The one who prevents his wife from seeking knowledge, The one who is rough during relations, The one who shows up unexpectedly, The one who feels he is too good for his wife, The man who has a weak personality, The man who abandons his responsibilities, The one who threatens his wife with divorce, The one who (intentionally) makes things difficult, The one who allows others to steer his personal affairs, The man who gives his wife free reign
