Question:
_Can
you please give me some wazeefas for creating love and harmony between
husband and wife and for removing friction and disunity between them? Jazakallah
Answer: In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
Hereunder
are several wazeefas (actions) for creating love between the husband and wife
and for removing friction and disunity between them: 1)
Causing friction and disunity between two Muslims is from the aspirations of
Shaitan. Shaitan does not spare anything to achieve this. In order to protect
oneself from this, one must protect himself from Shaitan, the accursed, and his
influence. Reciting Surah Baqarah is a means of protecting one’s home
from Shaitan. If there is disunity and bitterness between the husband and wife,
the husband or the wife should make it a habit to recite Surah Baqarah in the
house and thereafter to blow on himself/herself and the entire room/house. It
comes in the hadith: “In the name of the One in whose hand is the life of
Muhammad (sallallahu alaihi wa sallam), Shaitan cannot remain in a house in
which Surah Baqarah is recited” (Kitaab az-Zuhd wa ar-Raqa’iq:
1/609) 2)
The Holy Quran should be punctually recited in the home. It comes in the
hadith: The house in which the Holy Quran is recited, blessings increase
therein, the angels attend it and Shaitan vacates it. And the house in which
the Holy Quran is not recited, it becomes narrow upon its dwellers, blessings
decrease therein, Shaitan makes it his abode and the angels leave it.”
(Ibid) 3)
The husband should make it his habit that whenever he enters his house, he
firstly offers two rak’ats nafl salat. Similarly when he leaves the
house, he should always offer two rak’ats nafl salat. Inshallah, this
will also be of tremendous benefit. One person married the wife of Abdullah Ibn
Rawaha (radiyallahu anhu) after his death and he said to her, “Do you
know why I married you? I married you so that you tell me about the actions of
Abdullah Ibn Rawaha (radiyallahu anhu) at home.” His wife replied,
“Whenever he intended to leave the house, he would offer two
rak’ats. Whenever he entered the house, he offered two rak’ats.
Before sleeping, he offered two rak’ats. He made this his habit.” (Kitab
az-Zuhd war-Raqa’id: 2/776) Aisha
(radiyallahu anha) says, “Whenever Rasulullah (sallallahu alaihi wa
sallam) left the house, he left after offering two rak’ats.” (Ibid
pg 775) Therefore,
apart from being punctual on the obligatory prayers, one should be punctual on
these nawafil (opotional) prayers as well. They will be a means of tremendous
blessings in the home. 4)
One should habitually recite ‘manzil’ and blow on his house.
This will also be of tremendous benefit. You can download ‘manzil’
from our download page (http://www.fatwa.org.au/download.html). 5)
One should make dua after reciting لاَ حَوْلَ
وَلاَ
قُوَّةَ
إِلاَّ
بِالله (Laa hawla wa laa quwwata illaa
billaah) 40 times. 6)
After saying يا
اَرْحَمَ
الرَّاحِمِيْن (Yaa
ar-hamar-raahimeen) 500 times or 70 times or 7 times, one should make dua to
Allah Ta’ala that O Allah create love between us husband and wife. Apart from being punctual on the abovementioned
wazeefas, one should be particular about fulfilling all the commands of the
Shariah and about staying away from sins. One should not engage in anything
that draws the wrath and anger of Allah Ta’ala, as one cannot attain any
bounty of this world or that of the hereafter if Allah Ta’ala is
displeased with him/her. And if, due to being a human, one does engage in a
sin, after realizing his mistake he should immediately turn to Allah
Ta’ala in repentance seeking His forgiveness. (See: Mustanad Majmoo’ah
Wazaa’if: 517-520) |
