These tips came from a video I saw at this link and after watching it I think it applies to both spouses, though some tips apply to wives more (since it is meant for wives anyway)


The best thing about these tips, that most of them have references from the Qur'an or Sunnah.


    * Tips from Qur’an and Sunnah to love your spouse 41/60

   1. Make her feel secure (without intimidating her with divorce)
   2. Give salam to her when entering the house
   3. Wife=fragile vessel. Lots of goodness, treat very gently!
   4. When giving advice, advice in privacy, at the best time (loving & romantic)
   5. being generous with her = direct business with allah!
   6. give your seat for her
   7. avoid anger, keep wudhu’
   8. look good, smell great
