Is a woman rewarded for her work at home without intending to be rewarded by Allah for that work?
A woman's work in her home is great, contributing to the spread of affection, the upbringing of children, and assistance to her husband. This work earns a woman reward if she dedicates her intention to Allah Almighty, for in the Prophetic Hadith, "Deeds are only by intentions." And spending on one's family is considered charity if done with the intention of seeking reward from Allah. Every expenditure a Muslim makes seeking the countenance of Allah is rewarded, even the morsel he places in his wife's mouth.
