Hadith.4900 - A man from the companions of Commander of the Faithful (as) complained about his wife.
Commander of the Faithful (as) stood up to deliver a sermon and said:
"O people! Do not obey women in every matter and do not entrust them with wealth. Do not leave them to manage household affairs, for if they are left to act as they wish, they will lead to destruction and overstep the authority of the owner.
Indeed, we have found them lacking in piety when fulfilling their needs and impatient when pursuing their desires. Vanity is inherent in them even as they grow older, and pride clings to them even when they become weak.
They do not appreciate abundance when denied little; they forget the good but remember the bad. They rush into slander, persist in transgression, and align themselves with Satan. So, handle them with care in all circumstances and speak kindly to them so they may act righteously."
