The satisfaction of the husband for going out of the house /3

In the previous posts we talked about the matter of asking permission for a wife from her husband for going out of the house.

We said that in every system we need a manager that takes care to the affairs of that system. And we said that according to different reasons Islam has appointed the man as the manager of the family. And we described in detail that it does not mean that a man is better than a woman.

Undoubtedly the personality of a woman is more exposed to the dangers out of the house. There are many individuals in the society that are after their selfish desires and lusts, on the other hand a woman is more vulnerable than a man. So according to these matters, if the man who is the manager of a family, wants to manage the family successfully, he must not be indifferent about his family. A man who is in his innate nature wants to protect his wife; it requires him to take care of her. As we said before we must not consider the behavior of some Muslims as an Islamic matter. For example some people might be so unfeeling to the extent that they do not let their wives to even visit their relatives.

An important point here is that some people might think that it is obligatory upon every woman Muslim to ask for permission from her husband for every single traffic, but we must say that the main point here is that a wife must not go out of the house in the situations that her husband is not satisfied. The awareness of the satisfaction of the husband is enough. For example the husband knows that his wife wants to go out to school or office or mall, and the wife knows that her husband is pleasant with going to such places, just like what happens nowadays that usually men are satisfied with the common traffics of their wives, so it such cases asking the permission is not necessary and in the usual situations when the husband knows his wife well, he usually has a general pleasance about his wife’s whole traffics.

Psychologically speaking, when a man knows that in the normal situations his wife is in the house which is the safest places for her and knows that if his wife wants to go somewhere she will inform him, this can give tranquility to the man and can help him to do his job with more peace of mind.

So after all of these descriptions we understood that this Islamic rule is not the oppression against the freedom of women or a kind of insulting them.
