Chapter on the Husband's Rights Over His Wife

وَ رَوَى اَلْحَسَنُ بْنُ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ مَالِكِ بْنِ عَطِيَّةَ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ خَالِدٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: "إِنَّ قَوْماً أَتَوْا رَسُولَ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اَللَّهِ إِنَّا رَأَيْنَا أُنَاساً يَسْجُدُ بَعْضُهُمْ لِبَعْضِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ "لَوْ كُنْتُ آمِراً أَحَداً أَنْ يَسْجُدَ لِأَحَدٍ لَأَمَرْتُ اَلْمَرْأَةَ أَنْ تَسْجُدَ لِزَوْجِهَا".
Al-Hasan ibn Mahbub narrated from Malik ibn Atiyyah, from Sulaiman ibn Khalid, from Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, who said: "A group of people came to the Messenger of Allah سبحانه وتعالى (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) and said: 'O Messenger of Allah سبحانه وتعالى, we have seen people prostrating to one another.' The Messenger of Allah سبحانه وتعالى (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) said: 'If I were to command anyone to prostrate to another, I would have commanded the woman to prostrate to her husband.'"
