Never abusing your partner, is one of the most important lessons to adhere to. No matter what religion you belong to, treating your partner with respect and kindness is a basic trait. In this video, I cover the controversial topic of abuse in the home with a particular focus on emotional and psychological abuse. This is no doubt a universal issue that affects communities from all walks of life, and this short film attempts to tackle this problem from an Islamic perspective. Unfortunately many undermine their partner and completely neglect their existence, which is completely unacceptable. Treating one another with respect is a basic principle of the Qu’ran, specifically spouses. 

Allah ﷻ enjoins in the Quran for spouses to treat one another with respect.

وَعَاشِرُوهُنَّ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ

“And live with them in kindness”.

Quran 4:19

Getting angry over trivial matters such as food and household chores is not necessary, and as my friend Mohamed Hoblos says in the video, “everyone makes mistakes..the prophet has ordered us to be kind and gentle towards our women”. The video also explores how it is never too late to change your actions and ask for forgiveness, seeking help doesn’t make you weak, it makes you a better man.  

“The most complete believers are those who have the best character and the best of you are those who are the best to their wives” – Prophet Muhammed ﷺ
