.. Housework
Imam Ahmed reported in his Musnad, the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, used to “sew his own clothes, mend his own shoes and do whatever other work men do in their homes.”
This was said by his wife Aisha, when she was asked about what the Messenger of Allah used to do in his house. In another narration, she said: “He was like any other human being: he would clean his clothes, milk his ewe and serve himself.”
In yet another narration reported in Sahih Bukhari, a more general description of his involvement at home is available. The Mother of Believer, Aisha narrates, "He used to serve his family, then when the time for prayer came, he would go out to pray."
If we revive this example in our lives, we would at least achieve a few things:
1. we would be following the example of the Prophet
2. we would be bringing our families closer together & helping our wives
3. we would inject more humility into our lives & stave of arrogance.
It is commonplace nowadays to hear of men who demand food instantly from their wives when they get home. The pot might be on the stove and the baby screaming to be fed. Yet, they do not even pick up the child or show patience and wait a little while for the food. Let these ahadeeth be a reminder and a lesson for all of us.
