who distresses his parents, the Dayyuth (TE3) and the woman
who adopts masculine style. (Majmauz Zawaaid, Hadith 13431, V8,
P270, Dar-ul-Fikr Beirut)
Definition of Dayyuth
The foregoing Hadith clearly states that a dayyuth is one of
such sinners who will not enter the Heaven; a dayyuth is the
person who doesnt care about his wife's meeting strange men.
Remember! Apart from other people, first cousins, uncles wife,
aunts husband and sisters husband are strangers. By Shariah,
there is Purdah (veil) between sister-in-law and brother-in-law.
If the wife does not do Shari Purdah (veil) with them, she will
be deserving of Hell, and if the husband can stop her but he
does not do so, by Shariah, he is a dayyuth that is deserving of
Hell, he will initially remain deprived of the Heaven. The
dayyuth who commits this sin openly is a Fasiq-e-Mulin,
unworthy of doing Imaamat and giving witness.

Unmanliness
Dear Islamic Brothers! Those rebuking and even beating their
wives should ponder over this blessed Hadith. To demonstrate
your power over the one who is naturally weaker than you is
not manliness, it is in fact the worst unmanliness. If the woman
forgetfully makes a mistake, her husband should be lenient,
patient and tolerant. As he gets many benefits from her, he
should also tolerate her foibles (mistakes).

Distribution of Duties
During the journey, the duties should be distributed amongst
the travellers instead of placing the entire burden upon the
shoulders of just one person. Once, the blessed companions
E S

female sheep. Someone took it upon himself to slaughter it
whilst another took the responsibility of skinning it. Someone
else took the responsibility of cooking it. The Prophet of Allah
