✨ Dear MARRIED SISTERS,
Understanding your spouse’s biological and emotional needs is key to nurturing love and mercy in marriage.
Recent research shows that men have a daily hormone cycle that significantly impacts their behavior, energy, and emotional responses.
As Muslim couples, learning about these changes helps us build stronger, more compassionate relationships.
🔹 Morning Peak:
Men’s testosterone levels are highest in the morning. This often translates to higher energy, better focus, and increased physical and emotional needs. Start the day with kindness, love, and connection to support each other
.
🔹 Midday Shift:
As the day progresses, testosterone levels begin to drop, impacting energy levels and patience. Gentle communication during this time can help maintain harmony and prevent unnecessary conflict.
🔹 Evening Decline:
By evening, testosterone levels are at their lowest, leading to fatigue or emotional withdrawal. This is the perfect time for calm discussions, encouragement, and being emotionally present for one another.
🔹 A Balanced Approach:
Islam beautifully emphasizes the importance of understanding and fulfilling each other’s rights.
ALLAH SWT says:
“And one of His signs is that He created for you spouses from among yourselves so that you may find comfort in them. And He has placed between you compassion and mercy. Surely in this are signs for people who reflect.“
(Surah Ar-Rum: 21)
🔹 The PROPHET MUHAMMAD ﷺ demonstrated compassion and understanding with his wives, teaching us to adapt to each other’s emotional and physical needs.
💡 True love lies in understanding, patience, and fulfilling each other’s rights, especially when faced with biological changes that are part of human nature.
