Is a wife who is unable to denounce wrongs and commits some of them, despite being kind, patient, and fulfilling her duties, considered an aid to her husband in his commitment, or does she herself need someone to aid her?

The answer

Many young people suffer from the misconception that a wife can be committed and diligent in worship despite the husband's shortcomings, whereas in reality, she mostly follows her husband's example. The husband should be a role model for his wife and strive to invite and guide her. The husband must be the caller and advisor to his wife, occupy her free time with what benefits, gently forbid her from forbidden acts, strive to enroll her in a Quran memorization center, take her with him to lectures, and strengthen her ties with righteous families. Similarly, the husband should strive to help his wife in worship, share it with her, be the guardian of his family, and supplicate to Allah Almighty: (Our Lord, grant us from among our wives and offspring comfort to our eyes and make us leaders for the righteous).
