It Is Upon the Woman to Select a Righteous Husband

It Is Upon the Woman to Select a Righteous Husband

 
Umm Abdillah bint Sheikh Muqbil حفظه الله تعالى said:
 
“Concerning the woman, it is upon her to select a righteous husband. How many righteous women do not select a suitable righteous husband; so she marries a corrupt man and thus he puts her towards embracing whatever he is upon, and his ideas?
 
Perhaps it is the man who could become affected by the ideas of his wife, like what occurred to Imraan ibn Hataan, for surely he married his paternal cousin seeking to save her from the ideas of the Khawaarij but she was the one who pulled him towards her ideology.
 
So the woman is even more vulnerable, because most of the time she is the one who changes and is very quickly diverted towards another condition. Therefore, we ask Allah for steadfastness.
 
The spouse has an effect upon his companion. For this reason, one is encouraged to choose a righteous spouse.”
