Men's rights.

The responsibilities in which men have been given the status of authority have been discussed above. Let us see here what rights men have as masters.

Protecting confidential matters: The Qur'an describes the first right of a man over a woman in a way that cannot be described in any other language.

So chaste women become attached to their husbands and in their absence, by the grace of Allah, they become the guardians of all their rights.

Here it is meant to take care of all the things of the husband which are kept as deposit with the wife in his absence. In it comes the preservation of his lineage, his semen, his honor, the preservation of his wealth, in general, everything. If the wife fails to fulfill any of the above rights, then the husband will be able to exercise his powers and authority mentioned in the foregoing discussion.

Husband's Obedience: The second right of the husband is that the wife will obey him. This is a general instruction, in the interpretation of which the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) described various things.

You have the right over them not to let anyone into your house whom you do not like at all. She will not give away anything in her house without her husband's permission. If she does so, then her husband will get the reward. But the wife will be sinful. The wife cannot go out of the house without the permission of the husband.

In the presence of the husband, the wife should not observe a single nafl fast except the fast of Ramadan without her permission. The best wife is the one whose heart rejoices when you look at her, when she commands you, she obeys, and when you are absent, she preserves your wealth and all your rights over her.

The only exception to this general command of obedience is that if the husband instructs the wife to disobey God, the wife may refuse to obey the command, but she will. For example, if he forbids her to perform the obligatory prayers and observes the obligatory fasts, or orders her to drink alcohol, or asks her to abstain from the veil prescribed by the Shari'ah, or seeks to do abominable things with her, then it is not only permissible for the wife to reject this instruction. Because the law of the Creator is violated, it is not permissible to obey the creation in such an act. It is narrated in Hadith.

Creation cannot be obeyed in disobedience to the Creator. It is obligatory for the wife to obey her husband in all cases except these special aspects, otherwise she will be considered disobedient. In this case, the husband will be able to exercise his authority, the description of which is coming to the fore.
