Islamically, A Wife Isn't Obligated To Clean And Cook, It's The Duty Of The Husband To Provide Her A Servant To Do Chores - Nigerian Muslim Woman Says

A married Muslim woman, Fatima Ismail Yusuf has stirred mixed reactions on Facebook after she stated that in Islam, wives are not obligated to do house chores.

According to her, the husbands are supposed to provide servants to do these chores.

“Islamically, a wife isn't obligated to clean, cook etc. It's the duty of the husband to provide her a servant to do chores for her if he has the means. Islam,” she wrote on Friday.

The post which was shared in a Facebook group on Monday, May 20, elicited varying reactions with people, mostly Muslims, saying that husbands are also allowed to take their servants as wives.

“She is not entirely wrong. It's okay if a man gets his wife a servant to help in the day to day activities in the house. But it's not a must. The first and primary role of a good wife is to manage her home and manage it well,” one Tijaani Ahmed wrote.
