It is reported that the wife of Imâm Sa’îd b. Al-Musayyib – Allâh have mercy on him – said:
We only ever used to speak to our husbands like you address your commanders and leaders: [we would supplicate for them when talking to them] “May Allâh keep you right!”, “May Allâh keep you well!”
Abû Nu’aym, Hilyatu Al-Awliyâ` 5:198.
After the death of his wife Umm Sâlih, Imâm Ahmad – Allâh have mercy on them, used to praise her. He once said:
In the thirty years she was with me, we never had a single word of disagreement.
Al-Khatîb Al-Baghdâdî, Târîkh Baghdâd 16:626.
But our mother of believers used to argue [hafsa rahiallahu anha] ,to play [Aisha radiallahu anha],used to advice [um salamah] ,used to complaint about anything [one ummul momineen complained about slow moving camel], & they all used to laugh with our beloved prophet [peace be upon him]..
So …I think the wives should do dua ,be obedient, be playful with their husbands..Jazakallahu Khairaan.
