A woman advising her husband to pray in congregation
Question: 22105
Answer
Praise be to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah and his family.
A woman is not guilty of sin if she advises her husband when he does something that Allaah has forbidden, such as taking the matter of prayer in congregation lightly or drinking intoxicants or staying up late at night. Rather she will be rewarded for that. What is prescribed is that the advice should be given in a kindly and polite manner, because that makes it more acceptable and more beneficial.
