Please list some duties of the wife aswell as the husband
Should share the duties no matter what they are i.e. from cooking food , cleaning, washing clothes, etc etc.
:k: :k:
unlike common perception in the indian sub-continnet, and other muslim countries, women r not responsible for household....
one's wife is only responsible for keeping her husband happy....
to be willing to satisfy his sexual desires (needless to say within the limits of the shariah)....
to protect his house, wealth, repute, children in his absence....
providing food for the family, in edible form, is the responsibility of the husband and not the wife....
to look after the husband's parents and siblings is also not the wife's duty....
to spend any money on the house, the husband, the family or the children is not the wife's duty.... she cannot be forced to use her private wealth for such purposes.... its entirely up to the husband....
providing a clean well-furnished house is also the man's job....
ofcourse not to pver-pressurize him to go beyond his limits....
(for a better view read Syed Abu Aala Mawdudi's Huqooq-al-zawjayn)....
I heard that it is the duty to take care of the husbands parents....... i heard that it is a must if she lives with her inlaws.

Respect for women is hardly derived from such menial things.
I would gladly care for my wife's parents as my own if they were to live with me, that doesnt make me any less in the eyes of my wife or anyone else.
In the same way if my wife takes care of my parents, it wont make her my servant or anything.
Remember, when you marry, your spouses parents become the same level as your own parents. And taking care of your parents is of utmost importance.
serving and taking care of husband's parents is not included in a wife's duty from an Islamic point of view....
if she does it, she is doing a favor....
if she opts not to do so, she can not be forced....
and there is nothing in Islam against her for doing so....

I like you. Something good you have said in a long long time. :-p
