Respect your spouse and do not take them lightly in any way

This hadith is about a man named Aws ibn as-Samit who was very sexually active and made a mistake by comparing his wife to his mother. As a result, Allah sent down verses from the Quran that explained the expiation for this wrong action which is known as zihar. The expiation involves freeing slaves or fasting two consecutive months or feeding sixty poor people with food that is enough for them and their families. These teachings remind us of the importance of respecting our spouses and not taking them lightly in any way. It also teaches us that if we make mistakes, we should seek forgiveness from Allah and do whatever it takes to make up for our wrongdoings.
