Should
a husband doing daily housework?
It is most appropriate to start by
mentioning how our dearest Rasulullah (PBUH) who was the noblest and fountain
head of decent character treated wife. He would sew his own torn clothes,
repair his shoes and do whatever other workmen do in in their houses. This
hadith reported by Imam Ahmad and was said by his wife Aishah, when she was
asked about what Rasulullah (PBUH) used to do at home.
According to what Rasulullah (PBUH)
had shown us, it is understood that a husband should doing daily housework even
he is working. Nowadays, women also well-educated and get career on her own.
Thus, it is not suitable for men to give his career as a reason to not doing
daily housework and think this is beneath them. Rasulullah (PBUH) also a
diligent man who actively spread his preach but he manages to do housework and
also play with his children.
The worthiest condition of a
marriage is time to be spent together and this may achieve by having a husband
doing a daily housework. A quality time between a spouse create mutual
relationship that bring happiness long after. They should help each other and
be tolerance in spite of hectic days. In Quran, surah Al-Ma’dah, verse number
two, Allah command to His believing servants to assist one another to do good
deeds and to avoid sins.
This
is a very worrying trend that occurs nowadays in our country where an average
of three cases per hour of divorce among Muslim couples. According to the
study, one of the reasons that lead to divorce is that there is no understanding
between the partners in the sense that they do not really understand what their
roles are exactly when they get married. While man mostly thinks that housework
is not their duty at all while the wife thinks otherwise. To conclude it is
best to end this with a hadith from Rasulullah, “the best of man are those who
are best to their wives” (Narrated by Abu Hurairah).
