877. SERVING ONE'S HUSBAND
2798.إرشاد القلوب : قالَ رسولُ اللَّهِ صلى اللَّه عليه وآله : أيُّما امرَأةٍ خَدَمَتْ زَوجَها سَبعَةَ أيّامٍ ، غَلَّقَ اللَّهُ عَنها سَبعةَ أبوابِ النارِ وفَتَحَ لَها ثمانِيَةَ أبوابِ الجَنَّةِ تَدخُلُ مِن أينَما شاءَتْ .
وقالَ عليه السلام : ما مِنِ امرَأةٍ تَسقِي زَوجَها شَربَةَ ماءٍ إلّا كانَ خَيراً لَها مِن سَنةٍ صِيامِ نَهارِها وقِيامِ لَيلِها .1
2798.The Prophet (SAWA) said, 'Whichever woman serves her husband for seven days, Allah locks seven doors of Hell to her and opens eight doors of Paradise instead whereof she may enter as she pleases.'
He also said, 'A woman's quenching of her husband's thirst with a glass of water is better for her than a whole year spent fasting during the day and praying at night.' 2
2799.الإمامُ الصّادقُ عليه السلام : سَألَتْ اُمُّ سَلَمَةَ رسولَ اللَّه صلى اللَّه عليه وآله عن فَضلِ النساءِ في خِدمَةِ أزواجِهِنَّ ، فقال : أيُّما امرَأةٍ رَفَعَتْ مِن بَيتِ زَوجِها شيئاً مِن مَوضِعٍ إلى مَوضِعٍ تُرِيدُ بهِ صَلاحاً إلَّا نَظَرَ اللَّهُ إلَيها ، ومَن نَظَرَ اللَّهُ إلَيهِ لَم يُعَذِّبْهُ .3
2799. Imam al-Sadiq (AS) narrated that Umm Salama [the Prophet's wife] asked the Prophet (SAWA) about the status of women when being of service to their husbands, so he (SAWA) replied, 'Any woman who so much as moves something from one place to another in her husband's house with the intention of improving it is regarded with mercy by Allah, and whoever Allah regards [with mercy] He does not punish.' 4
2800.الإمامُ الكاظمُ عليه السلام : جِهادُ المَرأةِ حُسنُ التَّبَعُّلِ .5
2800.Imam al-Kazim (AS) said, 'The sacred war (jihad) of a woman is being a good spouse to her husband.' 6
