Responsibilities of Husbands: The True Meaning of Being Head of the Household

Understanding the Role of a Husband as the Head of the Household

Husbands: Being the head of the household means work, duty, and great responsibility. As head of the household, you are responsible for everything that happens in the family. You cannot enjoy the privileges of headship and not be willing to shoulder the responsibilities that come with it.

You can’t franchise, subcontract or outsource your husband responsibilities and not hurt your wife and marriage. You are accountable to Allah for the physical and spiritual welfare of your family. Make your wife’s life easier by carrying all your responsibilities dutifully. Your wife was not created to play her role and yours at the same time. Your wife should not live like a widow while you are still alive. You are the Priest, Provider, and Protector of the family. Therefore be involved. Be present. Take charge. Work hard. Pray, plan and execute. Remember your wife is your “suitable helper” not the other way round. Let your wife thank Allah that she is married to you.

May Allahﷲﷻ bless all our marriages. Ameen
