Will husband be responsible for wife not wearing hijab?
I married a Muslim girl before two weeks. she is nice and cute but the problem is she is not so religious. she prays 5 times a day and take fasting, but she dislikes to wear hijabs (she will cover her hair in front of others with a shall (piece of cloth attached with churidar).
I also do not compell her to wear hijab. Does this makes me responsible for her sin?

asalamu alaikum, brother,
a women who practices islam should wear a hijab should cover up. the four people who will get punished are 1.father 2.brother 3.husband 4.son so i advise you to tell her. theres various hadith which you can find in sahih muslims and al-bukahri inshallah hope things go well
ma salama
The Quran states that a person cannot bear the sins of another. Although, it is a duty for these men to advise the woman to wear hijab.
Allah knows best.
Assalam Alaykum,
Just wondering if you know where I can find the bukhari hadiths about the father, brother, husband and son's punishment for the woman not wearing hijab.
Thanks

Asalam alikum
I am facing similar problem.My wife prays five times and she is fasting and even paying zakat .she does not wear hijab .
I do remind her every time about it as a sin and i dont think i have any sin becos she is not wearing it.
In deen you cant force anyone.even if some one says he is a muslim and does not pray you cant force him to pray.
Only in one condition that is when sharia law is there then she will be punished for that as per islamic law.
Look at what our beloved prophet(PB UH) did when they were in makka and islam was not dominant and how everything changed when they established islamic state in Madina.
so the best thing is try to give the wife more knowledge about islam and also pray to god that is what i am doing.
wasalam
Aslaam-o-Eleikim all
@ahmad.........Can you please provide the reference for this????? I am sure it will benefit us all.
@Rauf... My case is almost exactly like yours.....she tries to be regular with prayers and does all that but when it's come to dress and wearing Hijab...she is not that careful. Does not wear Hijab at all. I have asked her few times without being rude ......but no luck so far. So i want to be clear on two things....
- If I am really responsible for her covering head and wearing more appropriate dress...??? and will I still be held responsible despite telling her few times that its not right and I don't appreciate it???
- If she doesn't listen to me on this and also doesn't listen to me on other few things.....??? what shall i be doing? I read about not sharing bed with her to make her realize and to punish her gently etc......but firstly.....its difficult for me to hit her....coz I dont like doing that....but apart from that nothing has worked so far....and I dont think even that gentle tap can make any difference.....so what is the guidance in that situation. specially when wife is not bothered much if you are sharing bed with her or as she is naturally cold....???
"a women who dont wear a hijab__ the four people who will get punished are 1.father 2.brother 3.husband 4.son s"
please anyone can give me the reference from al Hadith or al Quran. i need that .. Thanks
Assalam'alaykum,
The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “ Every one of you is a guardian and is responsible for his subject... a man is the guardian of his family and is responsible for his subjects...Surely, everyone of you is a shepherd and responsible for his flock. ”
(Sahih Bukhari, Sahih Muslim)
This means that there is no doubt that fathers, husbands, brothers etc will be held responsible if their wives, daughters, sisters etc do not wear hijaab and do not adhere to the rulings of sharee’ah ordained by almighty Allah. As Allah said: “O you who believe! Ward off yourselves and your families against Fire (Hell) whose fuel is men and stones” [al-Tahreem 66:6]
But if a person did his best and tried hard to convince his members of family to obey Allah, but does not get any results, Allah will most probably not hold him responsible infact He will reward him for his efforts, and Allah does not cause the reward for any good deed to be lost.
