The Pious Wife

The Marriage to her is one half of the deen,

The benefit Allah has put in her is yet to be seen. 

She wears her hijab for her Lord, to please and obey, 

She turns to Allah for salaah five times each day.
She prays in the night and makes sure to awake you, 

and sprinkles you with water if sleep should overtake you.

She protects her chastity with firmness because she does not desire, 

to displease Allah and end up in the tormenting fire.

She asks the people who know when matters need to be rectified, 

 She is not blinded by self righteousness and foolish pride.

She is humble and kind to her husband as Allah has commanded, 

Never leaving him alone, isolated, nor stranded.

She opens her mouth only to say what is best, 

Not questioning her husband when he makes a request.

She takes care of herself and never ceases to try,

To beautify herself so to please his eye.

She is a pleasure Allah has given to us in this life, 

Be thankful to Allaah alone for His blessing, THE PIOUS WIFE.
