• It was narrated on the authority of Umm Humayd, the wife of Abu Humayd As-Sa‘idi that she came to the Prophet (saws) and said, "‘O Messenger of Allah! I like to offer prayers with you." The Prophet (saws) said: “I know that you like to offer prayers with me; however, (you should know that) your prayer in your sleeping place (inside your chamber) is better for you than your prayer in your chamber; and your prayer in your chamber is better for you than your prayer in your house; and your prayer in your house is better for you than your prayer in the mosque of your people; and your prayer in the mosque of your people is better for you than your prayer in my mosque." [Ahmad] [Al-Albani: Saheeh]
• It was narrated on the authority of ‘Aa’ishah that she said, “I said, ‘O Messenger of Allah! We see that Jihad is the best of deeds; should we not engage in Jihad?’ The Prophet (saws) said, “For you (women), the best act of Jihad is to perform Hajj that is accepted (by Allah)." [Al-Bukhari]
• It was said to the Prophet (saws), "‘O Messenger of Allah! Such-and-such a woman prays at night, fasts by day, does such-and-such good deeds and gives charity. However, she harms her neighbors with her tongue.’ On that the Messenger of Allah (saws) said: “There is no good in her. She is from the people of Hell.” They further said, “And such-and-such a woman performs only the (obligatory five) written prayers, and gives only yogurt as charity. However, she harms no one.” On that the Messenger of Allah (saws) said: “She is from the inhabitants of Paradise." [Al-Bukhari: Al-Adab Al-Mufrad] [Al-Albani: Saheeh]
• The Messenger of Allah (saws) said: "By the One in whose hand the soul of Muhammad is! A woman will not fulfill the right of her Lord (perfectly) unless she fulfills the right of her husband fully; and if her husband asks her to have sexual intercourse while sitting on the back of a camel, she should not prevent him (from doing so).” [Ibn Majah] [Al-Albani: Hasan]
• The Prophet (saws) said: "If a woman spends
(gives charity) from the foodstuff of her house but not wastefully,
she will have a reward for what she spent, her husband will have a
reward for what he earned, and the storekeeper the like of that,
without reducing anything from the reward of each other."
[Al-Bukhari]

He asked: “How are you with him?” She said, “I am never negligent in fulfilling his right except when I am incapable.” On that, he said: “Then, regard your position with him for he either leads you to Paradise or to Hell."
