[Machine] "O Messenger of Allah, what do you think about the People of the Book prostrating to their bishops and rabbis? Shouldn't we prostrate to you instead?" He said, "If I were to command anyone to prostrate to another, I would have commanded the wife to prostrate to her husband. And the wife would not fulfill her husband's rights even if he asked her to do so while riding a camel, she would give it to him."

يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَرَأَيْتَ أَهْلَ الْكِتَابِ يَسْجُدُونَ لِأَسَاقِفَتِهِمْ وَبَطَارِقَتِهِمْ؟ أَفَلَا نَسْجُدُ لَكَ؟ قَالَ «لَوْ كُنْتُ آمِرًا أَحَدًا أَنْ يَسْجُدَ لِأَحَدٍ لَأَمَرْتُ الْمَرْأَةَ أَنْ تَسْجُدَ لِزَوْجِهَا وَلَا تُؤَدِّي الْمَرْأَةُ حَقَّ زَوْجِهَا حَتَّى لَوْ سَأَلَهَا نَفْسَهَا عَلَى قَتَبٍ لَأَعْطَتْهُ»

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , sent Mu'adh to Sham (Syria). When he arrived, Mu'adh said, "O Messenger of Allah, I have seen the People of the Book prostrating to their bishops and monks. Shouldn't we prostrate to you?" The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , replied, "If I were to command anyone to prostrate to anyone else, I would have commanded the wife to prostrate to her husband. And a wife does not fulfill her husband's rights even if he asks her while she is on the back of a camel."

بَعَثَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مُعَاذًا إِلَى الشَّامِ فَلَمَّا قَدِمَ قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنِّي رَأَيْتُ أَهْلَ الْكِتَابِ يَسْجُدُونَ لِأَسَاقِفَتِهِمْ وَبَطَارِقَتِهِمْ أَلَا نَسْجُدُ لَكَ؟ قَالَ «لَوْ كُنْتُ آمِرًا أَحَدًا أَنْ يَسْجُدَ لِأَحَدٍ لَأَمَرْتُ الْمَرْأَةَ أَنْ تَسْجُدَ لِزَوْجِهَا وَلَا تُؤَدِّي الْمَرْأَةُ حَقَّ زَوْجِهَا حَتَّى لَوْ سَأَلَهَا نَفْسَهَا عَلَى ظَهْرِ قَتَبٍ أَعْطَتْهُ»

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "If I were to command anyone to prostrate to anyone else, I would have commanded women to prostrate to their husbands as a right upon them. A woman will never have the sweetness of faith until she fulfills the rights of her husband, even if he were to ask her willingly for herself on a camel's hump."

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لَوْ كُنْتُ آمِرًا أَحَدًا أَنْ يَسْجُدَ لِأَحَدٍ لَأَمَرْتُ الْمَرْأَةَ أَنْ تَسْجُدَ لِزَوْجِهَا مِنْ حَقِّهِ عَلَيْهَا وَلَا تَجِدُ امْرَأَةٌ حَلَاوَةَ الْإِيمَانِ حَتَّى تُؤَدِّيَ حَقَّ زَوْجِهَا وَلَوْ سَأَلَهَا نَفْسَهَا عَلَى قَتَبٍ»

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "If I were to command anyone to prostrate to someone else, I would have commanded the woman to prostrate to her husband."

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لَوْ كُنْتُ آمِرًا أَحَدًا أَنْ يَسْجُدَ لِأَحَدٍ لَأَمَرْتُ الْمَرْأَةَ أَنْ تَسْجُدَ لِزَوْجِهَا»

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "If I were to command anyone to prostrate to another, I would have commanded the wife to prostrate to her husband, due to the great rights that Allah has bestowed upon him."

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَوْ كُنْتُ آمِرًا أَحَدًا أَنْ يَسْجُدَ لِأَحَدٍ لَأَمَرْتُ الْمَرْأَةَ أَنْ تَسْجُدَ لِزَوْجِهَا لِمَا عَظَّمَ اللهُ مِنْ حَقِّهِ عَلَيْهَا

"لَوْ أمَرْتُ أحَدًا أنْ يَسْجُد لأحَدٍ، لأمَرْتُ المْرَأةَ أَنْ تَسْجُدَ لِزَوْجِهَا لِمَا عَظَّمَ اللهُ -تعالى- مِنْ حَقِّه عَلَيها".

"لَوْ كُنْتُ آمِرًا أَحَدًا أنْ يَسْجُدَ لِغَير الله لأَمَرْتُ الْمَرْأةَ أنْ تَسْجُدَ لِزَوْجِهَا، وَالَّذِى نَفْسُ مُحَمَّدٍ بِيَدِهِ لَا تُؤَدِّي الْمَرْأةُ حَقَّ رَبِّها حَتَّى تُؤَدِّى حَقَّ زَوْجِهَا حَتَّى لَوْ سَأَلَهَا عَلَى ظَهْر قَتبٍ أَعْطَتْهُ".

"لَوْ كُنْتُ آمِرًا أحَدًا أَنْ يَسْجُدَ لأحَدٍ لأمَرْتُ الْمَرْأَةَ أَنْ تَسْجُدَ لِزَوْجِهَا".
