\viewkind4\uc1\pard\ltrpar\fi720\lang1033\f0\fs28 Instead of being covetous, try to be reasonable. Spend more time and effort in looking after the well-being of your family and husband rather than trying to imitate everyone else. If your husband spends lavishly, then stop him and curb his unnecessary expenses. Instead of buying non-essential commodities, it is better to save money for a rainy day.

\par \pard\ltrpar\li1440 "Any woman who is not compatible with her husband, is not content with what Allah has blessed them with, and treats her husband harshly by demanding him to give more than he is able, then her acts (or worship) are not acceptable by Allah and He will be angry with her.' (2)
