Balance in marital relationships.





Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, 
"A believer must not hate(his wife) believing women; if he dislikes one of her characteristics he will be pleased with another".
(Muslim, riyad as-salihin 275)



This hadith from Sahih Muslim highlights the importance of patience and balance in marital relationships. The Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) advises that a believer should not harbor hatred towards his wife or any believing woman because of a specific characteristic that he may find displeasing. Instead, he is encouraged to recognize and appreciate other positive traits she possesses. This teaching promotes compassion, understanding, and a balanced perspective in relationships, encouraging believers to focus on the good qualities rather than dwelling on the faults of their spouses.

It is a reminder to approach relationships with tolerance and gratitude, rather than focusing on imperfections.
