1-Listen actively. When your husband expresses an opinion or a thought, pay attention. This shows you respect him and his views and nothing pleases a man more.
2-Dress pleasantly/attractively. Mostly women dress properly when going outside and at home they wear worst clothes..U should dress urself so that ur husband will feel good when he looks at u...
3-Smell good.
4-Say thank you with a smile. When your husband does an odd job around the house, thank him like you really mean it. He will know that his help is not taken for granted and he will be happy to do more.
5-Race to the door when he comes home, as if you were waiting for him. Smile and hug.
6-Prepare his favorite meal. After he returns home from work on an ordinary day, surprise your husband with his favorite dinner. He will not only be glad to have the food he likes best, but will appreciate the time and effort you put in preparing it.
7-Don’t lay out all your problems on your husband as soon as he walks in. Give him a little mental break
8-Don’t keep asking him, “what are you thinking?”… because unlike women, men’s thoughts are as random as the results of a Google search.
9-Give your husband a nice massage, after a particularly exhausting day at work.
10- Be kind to your mother-in-law the same way you would like your husband to be kind to your own mother. Treat his siblings as ur siblings and his father as ur father and u would see then how much he will respect u
11-Learn all the rights and obligations of each other in Islam.
12-Keep your house clean, at least to the level that he wants it.
13-Compliment him on the things you know he’s not so confident about (looks, intelligence) etc. This will build his self-esteem.
14-Tell him he’s the best husband ever.
15-Call his relatives for a lunch or dinner at your home.
16-Give him a simple task to do at home and then thank him when he does it. This will encourage him to do more.
17-When he’s talking about something boring, listen and nod your head. Even ask questions to make it seem like you’re interested.
18-Stop nagging non-stop before Allah ta’ala gives you something really to complaint about.
19-Help him to find and build his inner strengths and skills.
20-Encourage him to do good deeds.
21-Share Islamic knowledge with each other. Try to watch Islamic channels together so that u both can learn.
22- If he’s in a bad mood, give him some space. He’ll get over it, insha Allah.
23-Thank him sincerely for providing you with everything.
24- If he’s angry with you and starts yelling, let him yell it out while you’re quiet. You will see your fight will end a lot faster. Then when he’s calm, you can tell him your side of the story and how you want him to change something.
25-When you’re mad at him, don’t say “YOU make me furious”, rather, “This action makes me upset”. Direct your anger to the action and circumstance rather than at him.
26-Remember that your husband has feelings, so take them into consideration.
27-Let him chill with his friends without guilt, especially if they’re good guys. Encourage him to go out, so he doesn’t feel “cooped up” at home.
28-If your husband is annoyed over a little thing you do (and you can control it), then stop doing it. Really.
29[b]-Learn how to tell him what you expect without him having to guess all the time. Learn to communicate your feelings[/b].
30-Don’t get mad over small things. It’s not worth it.
31-Make jokes. If you’re not naturally funny, go on the internet and read some jokes, and then tell them to him.
32-Tell him you’re the best wife ever and compliment yourself on certain things you know you’re good at.
33-Learn to make his favorite dish.
34-Don’t ever, EVER talk bad about him with ur friends or family unnecessarily.
35-Use your time wisely and get things accomplished. If you’re a housewife, take online classes and get active in your community. This will make you happy and a secondary bonus is that it impresses your husband.
36-Husband and wife should discuss and communicate with wisdom with each other to convey what they like and dislike of each other to do or not to do. NOT give command or instruction like servant. Because Allah says in quan “They are garment to each other”
37-Tell your husband you love him many many times.
38- Make sure all his clothes are clean and pressed so he is always looking fresh and crisps.
39- Ask Allah to strengthen and preserve the bonds of compassion and love between the two of you, every day, every prayer. Ask him to protect that bond from Shaytaan. When a lesser devil destroys the love between spouses, he is the most beloved of Shaytaan.
40-The way to a man’s heart is through his stomach. Try to make his favorite food
41-Always let him know that you appreciate him working. It makes it easier for him to go to work.
42-Surprise him with gifts. Even necessities can be gifts.
43-Listen to him. (Even when he talks about extremely geeky things like Queries, Tables and other boring things.)
44-Try (hard as it might be) to take interest in his hobbies.
45-Take care of your skin, esp. facial. Face is center of attraction.
46- Learn tricks and “techniques” to please your husband in intimacy. Of course goes both ways.
47-When you are sitting together, quietly slip your hand into his. Your husband will love the easy expression of intimacy between you two.
48- If you are not satisfied intimately, talk to him and tell him. Help him or provide resources, don’t wait till matters become worse.
49-Prepare for special evenings with him with special dinner and exclusive time
50-Don’t discuss important/controversial matters with him when he is tired or sleepy. Find right time for right discussion.
51-Learn to compromise
52-Respect his rights
53-You have to know about the financial conditions of your husband so that you do not demand a thing that is too hard for him to buy. Because if wife demands a very expensive thing which husband couldnt buy then he becomes mentally tensed and sometimes he does not tell her wife about that.
54-Ups and Downs are a part of time. You have to keep your behavior with your husband same in both times. Else he will be broken. If any calamity strikes him make him sure that you are with him and will be always
55-Share your happiness and sadness with him.
56-Accept him as is, he is a package deal.

75-Remember you are not always right or perfect yourself.
76-Have a good intention for him.
77-Designate a nice, clean, spacious area in your home for the two of you to pray at night whenever you can.
78-Let him have the TV remote. Granted, that you wish your husband spent more time with you, than watching the sports channel/NEWS, but it will make him happy.
79-Find a quiet moment with your husband to whisper “ I love you” in his ears. If you have already said it, say it again. You can never say these three words too often and you can be sure, that every time it will make your husband glad, he married you.
80--Hold his gaze. When you are speaking to your husband or listening to him, make sure that you keep eye contact. This will assure him of your attention and your respect, which is empowering to any man.
81-Take care of his money and properties.

A woman came to ask the Prophet (peace be upon him) about some matter, and when he had dealt with it, he asked her, "Do you have a husband?" She said, "Yes." He asked her, "How are you with him?" She said, "I never fall short in my duties, except for that which is beyond me." He said, "Pay attention to how you treat him, for he is your Paradise and your Hell." (Ahmad, al-Nisa'i Al-Targhib wa'l-Tarhib, 3/52)

The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said:

"Any woman who dies, and her husband is pleased with her, will enter Paradise."

[Ibn Majah, Book 1 Hadith 59

The parts in Bold I find very much interesting, I have no doubt a lady observing all these rules would have an everlasting happy Family.
If I have a wife doing all these (81), Walahi she would be the queen of my Empire .
Although all theses cant be achieved at a time, working on them one point at a time consistently would make the Magic.

Sallam.

What do you think?

81 is too long a list, nice list by the way, some I dont necessarily agree with.

Long list but not boring...I agree with most of it,bt few wouldn't work out....Nice ryt up OP

Nice one, really educative. All in sync with d teachings of islam

Sissie: 81 is too long a list, nice list by the way, some I dont necessarily agree with

buoye1: Long list but not boring...I agree with most of it, bt few wouldn't work out....Nice ryt up OP

Do you mind pointing them out.

No 5. She should go to the door not RACE to the door.

No 8. Why shouldn't she ask him what he's thinking? Even if it's random thoughts, especially if he appears to be in deep thoughts.

No 23, that's if he provide "everything"

No 31, if she's not funny she's not funny, why does she have to go to the internet to look for joke?

No 53. You only know his financial condition if he lets you know, if he doesn't does she start snooping around?

No 54. If there are up and downs they both face it, so if his behavior change why does she have to keep her behavior the same?

No 66. Not all his shortcomings should be overlooked, some have to be worked on.

^These points have been subsumed by other points. Like waiting for him to calm down before making your point to him.

Laugh at his jokes if you cannot crack jokes yourself and so on.

May Allah bless us with excellent spouses and marriages. (Ameen)

OP, this your list has me smiling. Really nice.

Hmmm, you sound harsh.

maclatunji: OP, this your list has me smiling. Really nice.

Thanks.

May be difficult to practice, but would go a long way to breed love, care and understanding in the family.

Morover, they don't apply to d ladies alone, applies to d guys too

rajiade:

Hmmm, you sound harsh.

Harsh?? Because I don't agree with all the points?

I see this sort of list frequently, so theirs nothing for me be harsh about.

Not all the points I posted have been subsumed by other points.

It mostly applies to females.

Sissie:

Do your best and leave the rest.

maclatunji:

Do your best and leave the rest.

Didn't say I wouldn't do any, you said this points meaning all have been subsumed and I only pointed not all have been subsumed.

someone asked me to point out the onces I didn't necessarily agree with and I did. Doing my best is my prerogative.

I think some of these things would (should?) come naturally.

A woman can not always flatter her husband that is so unnatural.

Race to the door

LOL

I read the comments only, btw.

Sissie:

It goes without saying.

In the words of Dave Chappelle:

"Just make Him a sandwich, sck his ___, play with his ballllls, and don't talk too much"
