One of the foremost characteristics which men desire in women is her beauty. However, a wise Muslim man knows that just like everything else in this world that glitters, the beauty of his wife (or of any other woman, for that matter), is temporary.
Hence, he focuses more on her other important and more long-lasting good traits.
Allaah says in the Qur’aan: “..and treat them (i.e. your wives) kindly; then if you hate them, it may be that you dislike a thing while Allah has placed abundant good in it.” [Qur’an – 4: 19]
Most men desire children; however, they soon witness that having children makes their wives’ bodies lose their shape. A good Muslim husband therefore, reminds himself that beauty is of secondary importance, especially when the Shaytaan makes non-mahrumwomen appear more attractive to him. He reminds himself that the only permanent pleasure of beholding perpetually beautiful women is reserved for righteous people in Paradise, and its existence in the world is fleeting, and a deceptionof Shaytaan.
So you must always remember that your wife will age and her
beauty will die. So focus on other good qualities and manners she has.
Kindly remember to share with others..
