Despite this, there are some really good things arising from this: Islam has set clear and firm rules as to how a husband should treat his wife. Kindness, humility, and understanding are the expected behaviors, with the intention being to not make her feel lower than him in status. Saudi men are actually very family-oriented and they care for their children and wives very much.
