Islamic View On Husband Helping His Wife With House Chores by Realismailakabir(op): 7:36am On Nov 27, 2020
Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the World, His peace and blessings upon his noble Prophet (SAW)

Firstly we have to know that doing house chores is waajib (necessity) for a wife and helping one's wife is Sunnah that our beloved prophect practiced. If we are to follow his example we have to follow this beautiful Sunnah no matter how busy we are! Many scholars depend on the hadith below declare it a necessity on wives.

Al-Bukhari and Muslim may Allah have mercy upon them narrated that: 'Faatimah, may Allah be pleased with her (the daughter of the Prophet Muhammad)(SAW) came to the Prophet, complaining of what she suffered from the hand mill and from grinding, when she got the news that some slave girls of the booty had been brought to the messenger of Allah. She went to him to ask for a maid-servant, but she did not find him and she told Aaisha, may Allah be pleased with her, of her need. When the Prophet(SAW) came, Aishah, may Allah be pleased with her, informed him (SAW) of Faatimah's request. Then Prophet, may Allah be pleased with him came to our house when we had gone to our beds. (On seeing the Prophet SAW) , we were going to get up, but he said keep at your places,' I felt the coolness of the feet of the Prophet (SAW) on my chest. Then he said: shall I tell you a thing which is better than what you asked me for? When you go to your beds, say: Allahu Akbar (Allah is the Greatest) 34 times, Al-Hamdulillaah (all perfect praise be to Allah) 33 times, and Subhaanallaah (Glorified is Allah) 33 times. This is better for you than what you have requested.'

From this Sahih Hadith we can see that it is compulsory for house wives to do their
daily tasks at home and not neglect it. She have to put into consideration that her man strives daily to meet ends for the family, even if she works, she must try her best to be equal to this task!

Hadith:
Aisha, the wife of the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh), was asked, “What did the Prophet ( ﷺ ) use to do in his house?” She replied, “ He used to keep himself busy serving his family ( ﻛَﺎﻥَ ﻳَﻜُﻮﻥُ ﻓِﻲ ﻣِﻬْﻨَﺔِ ﺃَﻫْﻠِﻪِ ) and when it was the time for prayer he would go for it .” (Bukhari)

In another report Aisha is reported to have said, “He did what one of you would do in his house. He mended sandals and patched garments and sewed .” (Adab Al-
Mufrad graded sahih by Al-Albani)

Hence, he did not find such things too ‘womanish’ for him, to do. No wonder that he said, “The best of you is the one who is best to his wife, and I am the best of you to my wives .” (Tirmidhi; Ibn Majah)
Scholars view:
Scholars like Abu Bakr ibn Abi Shaybah, Abu Ishaaq al-Jawzjaani and Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah (may Allaah have mercy on them) said that it is the womans duty to serve her husband within the bounds of what is reasonable.

Some people are just obsessed with Islam, it's as if they can't live without talking about Islam negatively.
[b]you can preach Christianity without insulting Islam and Muslims[b]
You don't have to show your hatred for someone else's religion before you propagate yours.
Anyway, it's your choice.

If your lecturer explain sth to you in school and u didnt get it u will draw his attention and ask question, so apply same logic to Islam, if you didnt get something about Islam dont be afraid to ask knowledgeable people around you to satisfy your curiosity instead of drawing unnecessary pattern on ur head...
