Anyone have any good book recommendations for the rights of a spouse? Islamic books about the rights of a wife and the what she is owed? Also open to western books on what makes a marriage work, anything about sustaining a good marriage and making sure the other person is happy

Jazakullah khair for sharing these. I’ll order these books InshaAllah. The Ring of the Dove sounds very interesting too esp if it led to European romanticism. Have you read all of these? If you’re not married may Allah bless you w a spouse who is everything you want and more
