Answer:

All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger.

In principle, homes are built on love and affection. Allaah Says (what means): {…and He placed between you affection and mercy.} [Quran 30:21]

However, the hearts are in the Hands of Allaah [and He turns them as He likes]. So, the spouses may not love each other, or that one spouse loves the other while the other does not does not love him/her. If this is the case, then both spouses should endeavor to find the reasons that could lead to this love and remove the obstacles that prevent it.

Hence, a wife should beautify herself and show her love and affection to her husband in words and deeds. It is also advisable that she impresses her husband to love her, by running the house in a good way, placing its furnitures in a pleasant manner and keeping the house clean with a good smell.

Also, among the reasons of attracting the love of the husband, is for the wife to offer a good welcome to her husband whenever he comes back home and not to overload him with demands.

There is another important matter which is to be very keen on the good nurturing of the chidren and keeping them clean at all times.

What we have mentioned here are just few examples. In any case, a wise wife should do anything by which she could attract the love of her husband and avoid all that could drive him away from her.

Allaah Knows best.
