00:00:00.750 --> 00:00:03.750
A verse and its Tafsir

00:00:03.750 --> 00:00:07.459
Allah the Exalted says:

00:00:07.459 --> 00:00:13.460
"And live with them in kindness."

00:00:14.900 --> 00:00:17.899
That is, make your speech to them pleasant,

00:00:17.899 --> 00:00:21.899
and improve your actions and your demeanor according to your ability,

00:00:21.899 --> 00:00:24.899
just as you would love for her to do the same for you,

00:00:24.899 --> 00:00:27.929
so you must do likewise for her.

00:00:27.929 --> 00:00:29.929
As the Exalted says:

00:00:29.929 --> 00:00:33.929
“Women who are divorced shall wait, keeping themselves apart, three (monthly) courses. And it is not lawful for them that they should conceal that which Allah hath created in their wombs if they are believers in Allah and the Last Day. And their husbands would do better to take them back in that case if they desire a reconciliation. And they (women) have rights similar to those (of men) over them in kindness, and men are a degree above them. Allah is Mighty, Wise.” (2:228)

00:00:33.929 --> 00:00:36.929
And the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said:

00:00:36.929 --> 00:00:39.929
"The best of you is the best of you to his family,

00:00:39.929 --> 00:00:42.929
and I am the best of you to my family."

00:00:42.929 --> 00:00:45.179
