Sahih Muslim 1437b (Book 16, Hadith 145) #10680
Keeping Secrets in Marriage

SUMMARY: The most important trust in the sight of Allah is that a man and his wife should keep each other's secrets.

Abu Sirma al-Khudri (Allah he pleased with him ) reported Allah's Messenger as saying: The most important of the trusts in the sight of Allah on the Day of judgment is that a man goes to his wife and she goes to him (and the breach of this trust is) that he should divulge her secret Ibn Numair narrates this hadith with a slight change of wording.
وَحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ، وَأَبُو كُرَيْبٍ قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ، عَنْ عُمَرَ، بْنِ حَمْزَةَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيَّ، يَقُولُ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏"‏ إِنَّ مِنْ أَعْظَمِ الأَمَانَةِ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ الرَّجُلَ يُفْضِي إِلَى امْرَأَتِهِ وَتُفْضِي إِلَيْهِ ثُمَّ يَنْشُرُ سِرَّهَا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ وَقَالَ ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ ‏"‏ إِنَّ أَعْظَمَ

This hadith emphasizes the importance of trust between a husband and wife. It teaches us that one of the most important trusts in the sight of Allah is for a man to keep his wife’s secrets, and for her to keep his secrets as well. On the Day of Judgment, Allah will judge us based on how we kept our promises, including this promise between spouses to protect each other’s secrets. We must remember that keeping our spouse’s secret is an act that pleases Allah, so it should be taken seriously by all married couples.
