Volume 7, Book 62, Number 112:
Narrated Sahl bin Sad:
Abu Usaid As-Sa'idi invited the Prophet to his wedding party and his wife served him on that day,
and she was the bride. She said (or Sahl said), "Do you know what she soaked for Allah's Apostle? She
soaked some dates for him (in water) in a drinking bowl overnight."
Volume 7, Book 62, Number 113:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah's Apostle said, "The woman is like a rib; if you try to straighten her, she will break. So if you
want to get benefit from her, do so while she still has some crookedness."
Volume 7, Book 62, Number 114:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet said, "Whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day should not hurt (trouble) his neigh-
bor. And I advise you to take care of the women, for they are created from a rib and the most
crooked portion of the rib is its upper part; if you try to straighten it, it will break, and if you leave it,
it will remain crooked, so I urge you to take care of the women."
Volume 7, Book 62, Number 115:
Narrated Ibn 'Umar:
During the lifetime of the Prophet we used to avoid chatting leisurely and freely with our wives
lest some Divine inspiration might be revealed concerning us. But when the Prophet had died, we
started chatting leisurely and freely (with them).
Volume 7, Book 62, Number 116:
Narrated 'Abdullah bin 'Umar:
The Prophet said, "Everyone of you is a guardian and everyone of you is responsible (for his
wards). A ruler is a guardian and is responsible(for his subjects); a man is a guardian of his family
and responsible (for them); a wife is a guardian of her husband's house and she is responsible (for it),
a slave is a guardian of his master's property and is responsible (for that). Beware! All of you are
guardians and are responsible (for your wards)."
