BE A REALLY GOOD WIFE…
Let me tell you the ways to get to his heart
Delicious food is where you should start
A really good meal – there’s nothing like it
Be it steak or biryani, kebabs or fish
When he returns home from work, greet him at the door
A really nice smile will please him for sure
Elegant clothes, make-up, perfume applied
All these things make for an attractive wife.
Serve him his meal and do it with style
The domestic woes can wait for a while.
Be a good listener – Was his day alright?
Be ready to give him support and advice
When he’s home, try to be there for him
No friend can be more important than him
If he wants to go out put everything aside
Let your company be the best thing in life
Be smiling and cheerful and do make him laugh
This is one more way of keeping his heart
Use wisdom and tact when dealing with him
Nothing can be gained by fighting with him
If he does say something which you don’t like
Do give it some thought, perhaps he’s right
As for his money, do spend it with care
Remember all the hard work it took to get there
Be grateful to him in deeds, words and thoughts
Ingratitude to husbands is disliked by God
If you do all this, it’ll improve your life
For marital bliss makes this world Paradise
And think of the reward there is in the Next
It’ll motivate you into doing your best.

This poem assumes the wife is a stay at home wife/mother.........do they have any poems for marriages where BOTH work.....I am sure it would be MUCH different!

I don't cook WELL......and he doesn't mind saying so........especially since the only thing I can cook Tunisian is Tajene and Jerbana......BUT I can cook good old souther food excellently, but he won't touch it without complaining about how he misses his food........SO he finally figured out.....DO IT YOURSELF!!!! Hee Hee!!!!

I dont think the poem was directly to stay at home wives, to married women in general, working/non-working who are striving to please their husbands, because the husband is their ticket to Jennah. Pleasing your husband, is pleasing Allah. Jazakallahu Khairan for sharing this beautiful poem!

Well, kind of hard to have dinner cooked for him and make yourself beautiful for him when he gets home first and you have to compete with the children to have a conversation..........the past week......since he started working normal hours....he has cooked dinner for me.....I like it like that.......

I would be very impressed if I knew what those dishes are :shymuslima1:
I work much longer hours than my husband and must travel often with my work. I love him to bits and he is a good husband alhamdolillah but I can't greet him at the door with perfume on, dinner ready and a big smile on my face. :girl3:

Maybe a poem should be written for the perfect husband.. wouldnt that be good? Tell them what to do aswell. But yeah I agree with poem.. the typical role of a woman to be in the private sphere.. thats ok.. and all the cooking and cleaning.. thats ok.. hehe I can only say that because Im not married.. i know there are so many women who disagree..
But I still think a poem should be written for men..

That is a wonderful poem for husbands, I wonder if I can get mine to read it? Only joking he is a very good husband indeed.
I would not let my husband in the kitchen, he makes such a mess and it takes longer to clean up after him than just go and do it myself.
