Alhamdulillah i finished the book before the Zuhr Salah, spent like 3:45min in 3 sitting to finish the book. This is the book i bought on Friday @ Dar-us-salam and heard the lecture of "salafi dawa'ah being expensive".
alhamdulillah, the print of the book is excellent and its organization and style as well. Very pretty book to have at hand. No wander, why its price is $10 dollars. MaashaaAllah. The pages are just 68 and from that you have **Blank** pages in between the chapters and at the end and there is some words list of 2 pages at the end and of course the text is spread in way to take more space.
Overall, it is a very short book that looks pretty and the knowledge it contains is alhamdulillah is GREAT. The topic is one that catches attention so no matter how much it cost, one who wants to know what is inside will BUY it. Alhamdulillah.
There are 15 hadith in the book and each hadith has several benefits added to it, and the points are great. alhamdulillah. and there are some footnotes too that were added to clarify few points of importance.
I would like to share two points with you all from the book that i liked very much. alhamdulillah.
1 - "The wife should make the utmost effort to earn the love of her husband by treating him in a kind and respectful manner. For indeed it is the woman who is truly loved who gives meaning to a man's life. She gives him joy from her emotions just as she gives him birth from her womb. Verily it is only a woman who can bring about a truly warm environment for her husband. For there are some women who can make the home a beautiful, effervescent garden even though the house may be barren and times might be difficult. Whereas on the other hand, some women can make the home feel like an arid, windy desert even though it may be filled with all their needs and wants. and then there are some women who make the home like a graveyard."
2 - This hadith (#9) is a clear evidence of the prohibition of taking pictures or keeping them. Rather they should be erased or destroyed and the only exception to this that which is done out of necessity. As for the custom of some people whereby they hang pictures on their walls or in their rooms, then this is haram based on the statement of the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhe wa sallam, "verily the people who make these pictures would be punished."
and this is in addition to the fact that from the negative repercussions of pictures is that the angels do not enter a house in which there are pictures. Consequently, one realizes that the prevalence of pictures of beings with souls on people's clothing, especially that of children, is something that must be corrected. As for if the picture is in a lowly place such as one that is on the ground and is used as a floor mat, then this is something that is OK, because it is treated in an abase manner, for in one of the narrations of this hadith, it states that Jibreel came to the Prophet sallallahu alayhe wa sallam and said, "Go and make two pillows out of the curtain that will be thrown on the floor and stepped on..." (albanee graded this hadith as saheeh)
3 - [Bonus] - "the fact that arguments occur between spouses should not seem strange, however they both must hasten to solve their problem(s) even if it means one of them compromising for the other. This is why one finds that when marital problems which were initiated by his wives - may Allah be pleased with them - occurred in the homes of the prophet sallallahu alayhe wa sallam, because of his outstanding character, he was properly equipped to solve them; and this is how men should be."
Two good footnotes were on the topic of - evil eye and how to protect ones' self from it, and another on - about husband turning his back on his wife on the same bed they sleep on as a punishment for her improper behaviors while he should still talk to her.
I like the book alhamdulillah.

Paperback: 72 Pages
Published: July 2010
An insightful look in to the perfect manners and morals of the Prophet (sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) in his dealings with his wives. The author carefully selects fifteen hadeeth ranging from issues of approaching marriage to wedding celebrations to issues of rights, disagreement and reconcilement - all of which exemplify the beautiful conduct of the Messenger (sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) combining the ultimate balance of wisdom, mercy and justice.
The author states in his introduction:
"No doubt the mannerism and the character of the Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) is an example that Muslims generation after generation have tried to emulate, and this is because of the exemplary traits and qualities that Allaah has bestowed upon him. And from these noble characteristics is the manner in which he treated his wives and his children, for the one who ponders on this aspect of his life stands astounded in awe and admiration for this noble Prophet (sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam)."
Our price: $9.99 (£6.49)
