What is the text of the hadith about the wife who obeyed her husband and so her father entered Paradise, and is it authentic?
The was narrated by Al-Tabarani in Al-Awsat, and Al-Albani graded it as weak due to the presence of ‘Ismah ibn Al-Mutawakkil in its chain of narration. Its wording is: “A man went out and commanded his wife not to leave their house. Her father was on the lower floor of the house, and she was on the upper floor. Her father fell ill, so she sent a message to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and mentioned that to him. He said: ‘Obey your husband.’ Her father then died, so she sent a message to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). He said: ‘Obey your husband.’ Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sent word to her that Allah had forgiven her father because of her obedience to her husband.”
