What Is The Ruling Concerning A Husband Calling His Wife "Ummuh" ? by Lukgaf(m): 8:21am On Dec 10, 2021 |
Dr. Faadhil: I do not know why the questioner asked this question, but perhaps he thinks that a man addressing his wife as "Ummu" means that he has called her his mum; and whoever addresses his wife as his mum has made a big mistake because it resembles divorce. And since it is not permitted for a husband to address his wife as "my mum", this person may think that addressing one's wife as "Ummu" is the same as addressing her as "my mum". On a closer look, it doesn't mean the husband refers to his wife as his mum, but rather - as with the majority of the people that address their wives as "Ummu" - he only shortens the name; for example, if she is "Ummu Abdillah" and he doesn't wish to call that in full, he says "Ummu" while intending it as "Ummu Abdillah". A husband addressing his wife as "my mum" is one of the assumed means of divorce, but it is not divorce. However, as Muslims, we are to stay away from doubtful issues as much as possible. That said, it is not dignifying enough for husbands to address their wives with names that don't depict love; some of such names are Ummu, Abu and so on. The prophet (may the peace and blessing of Allah be upon him) didn't address any of his wives as "Ummu" although he used to say Ummu so and so. We can address our wives by their names, like calling the person bearing Aaishah as "Aaish". So, there is no problem in addressing one's wife as "Ummu", but it is dignifying enough as it may not foster love. Wives can also address their husbands by their names ones in a while, but it shouldn't be in public; just between them. When in public, they can address their husbands with the names that people address them with or their nicknames or simple "my husband". We don't appreciate this in Yoruba land, which is not supposed to be like that. Some husbands address their wives as "the mother of my children" which is wrong because the term is used for slave. As for the question, two things should be noted. The first is that a husband addressing his wife "Ummu" doesn't mean his wife has become haram for him. The second is that couples should address each other with names that will foster and strengthen love between them. May Allah guide us to the right path.

Leverage2021:The Bible teaches men to love their wives. The Quran, the word of Allah teaches husbands to beat their wives, use hunger as a weapon against women until they die.
Here we are told that women should be confined to the house until they are dead, torture by starvation as commanded by Allah who Muslims claim is all merciful The same Allah allows Wife beating in Islam:
Allah allowed wife beating

vannessa7: Islam is not a religion from G-D at all, it is full of fables. See what allah says about women, they're even farmlands. The Koran beautifully sums up women's status in Surat al-Baqara 2:223 Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala said: نِسَآ ؤُكُمْ حَرْثٌ لَّـكُمْ ۖ فَأْتُوْا حَرْثَكُمْ اَنّٰى شِئْتُمْ ۖ وَقَدِّمُوْا لِاَ نْفُسِكُمْ ۗ وَا تَّقُوا اللّٰهَ وَا عْلَمُوْۤا اَنَّکُمْ مُّلٰقُوْهُ ۗ وَ بَشِّرِ الْمُؤْمِنِيْنَ "Your wives are a place of sowing of seed for you, so come to your place of cultivation however you wish and put forth [righteousness] for yourselves. (QS. Al-Baqara 2: Verse 223) To say that wives must be passive partners is an understatement. According to the Koran they are like farmlands or landed properties while the husbands are husbandmen. As farmlands have no will of their own, in Islam, neither do wives. 7 Likes 1 Share |

If ur religion teaches u people to be good why are 80 to 90 % pastor raping under age girls and sleeping with married women up and down? Why have they turn the church to circus show where they performed all acts of debauchery on women apart from finessing all their members of their hard earned money in the name of tithes, offering, sowing of seeds, miracles etc ?

Omeizadean:The story of of Mariam that Muhammad stole and wrote in the Quran, where did he copy it from? These are women that are mentioned and honoured in the Bible, apart from Maryam which other woman’s name was mentioned in the Quran? Queen Esther Abigail Ruth Rebecca Naomi and many more Stop saying what you don’t know The fact that you have sura Maryam does not mean anything. The Quran that has chapters named after cow, Table, Cattle, Thunder, Rock, Bees etc. So what’s special in placing Maryam on the same level as animals and tables. Quran is the book of mother of errors. If I start exposing it, you’ll run away 3 Likes |
