Answer:
Can husband clean
wife pubic hair
In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His
help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide,
and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright. We bear
witness that there is none worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear
witness that Muhammad (saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His
Messengers.

It would not be lawful or permissible in Islam for a
believing woman to expose or display her ‘satr’ (ie. from the beginning of her
breasts to the end of her knees inclusive) in front any other person, male or
female, except her husband….for there is absolutely no ‘satr’ between a husband
and a wife united in the sacred bond of marriage in Shariah.
If a believing woman for any reason whatsoever is unable
to or seeks help in cleansing her private parts, she is within her rights to
seek the help of none except her husband.

Respected sister in Islam, one cannot over-emphasize the
importance and significance of serving and being dutiful unto one’s parents in
Islam…..
Allah says in the Holy
Quran Chapter 17 Surah Bani Israel verses 23-24:
Your
Lord has enjoined the following: You should not worship anyone but Him
Alone! Treat your parents with
great kindness; if either or both of
them attain old age, do not even say ‘uff’ to them; nor rebuke them; but speak to them kind words. Treat them with humility and tenderness and
pray, “O our Lord, be merciful to them,
just as they brought me up with kindness and affection in my childhood.”
Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 31 Surah
Luqman verse 14:
14 And We have enjoined on man (to be good) to his parents: in travail upon travail did his mother bear him and in years twain
was his weaning: (hear the command) "Show gratitude to Me and to thy
parents: to Me is (thy final) Goal.
Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 46 Surah
Ahqaaf verses 15-16:
15 We have enjoined on man kindness to his parents: in pain did his
mother bear him and in pain did she give him birth. The carrying of the (child)
to his weaning is (a period of) thirty months.
At length when he reaches the age of full strength and attains forty
years he says "O my Lord! grant me that I may be grateful for Thy favor
which Thou hast bestowed upon me and upon both my parents and that I may work
righteousness such as Thou mayest approve; and be gracious to me in my
issue. Truly have I turned to Thee and
truly do I bow (to Thee) in Islam."
16 Such are they from whom We shall accept the best of their deeds and
pass by their ill deeds: (they shall be) among the Companions of the Garden: a
promise of truth which was made to them (in this life).
Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 2 Surah
Baqarah verse 215:
215 They ask thee what they should spend (in charity). Say: ‘Whatever ye spend that is good is
for parents and kindred and orphans and those in want and for
wayfarers. And whatever ye do that is
good Allah knoweth it well.’
Al-Tirmidhi Hadith 4941 Narrated by Abu Umamah
A man said, "O Messenger of Allah (saws),
what rights can parents demand from their children?" He (saws) replied, "They are (or
your relation with them will determine) your
Sahih Muslim Hadith 6189 Narrated
by Abu Hurayrah
Allah's Messenger (saws) said: ‘Let him be
humbled into dust! Let him be humbled
into dust!’ It was said: ‘O Allah's Messenger (saws), who is he?’ He (saws) said: ‘He who sees either of
his parents during their old age or he sees both of them, but he does not enter
Sunan of Abu-Dawood Hadith 5120 Narrated by Mu'awiyah ibn Hayadah
I asked: ‘O Messenger of Allah(saws)! To whom
should I show kindness most?’ He (saws)
replied: ‘Your mother.’ I asked (again):
‘Who next?’. He (saws) replied: ‘Your mother!’.
I asked: ‘Who next?’ He (saws)
replied: ‘Your mother!’ I asked again:
‘Who next?’ and he (saws) replied: ‘Your father, and then your relatives in
order of relationship.’
Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith 1.505 Narrated by Abdullah
I asked the Prophet (saws): "Which deed
is the dearest to Allah?" He (saws) replied, "To offer the prayers at
their early stated fixed times." I asked, "What is the next (in
goodness)?" He (saws) replied, "To be good and dutiful to your
parents." I again asked, "What is the next (in
goodness)?" He (saws) replied, "To participate in Jihad (religious
fighting) in Allah's cause."
'Abdullah added, "I asked only that much and if I had asked more,
the Prophet (saws) would have told me more."
Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith 4.248 Narrated byAbdullah bin Amr
A man came to the Prophet asking his permission to take part in Jihad.
The Prophet asked him, "Are your parents alive?" He replied in the
affirmative. The Prophet said to him, "Then
exert yourself in their service."
There is allowance in the Shariah whereby it is
permissible for one to give ‘sadaqah’ or perform the ‘Hajj’ or ‘Umrah’
pilgrimage for another….but there is absolutely no evidence in the authentic
and established Sunnah whereby the Messenger of Allah (saws) permitted the
believers to recite the Quran, or offer prayers, or fast, etc. and transfer its
rewards to another.
Respected sister in Islam, just as one cannot do a sin and
transfer its penalty to another….it is not permissible in Islam for one to do a
good deed and transfer its rewards to another!
Respected sister in Islam, if you happen to live in a
distant land away from your parents, you should strive to the best of your
ability to visit them as often as you can, keep in constant touch with them,
help them if they are in need, strive your absolute utmost to fulfill any and
all of their lawful commands and wishes…..and above all, remain constant in
making supplications for their well-being unto your Lord Most Merciful,
including making supplications for your father’s business and the receipt of
good proposals for your unmarried sister, etc.
Respected sister in Islam, you are at absolute liberty to
make as many supplications as you wish for your loved ones, even more than you
make for yourself…….but to recite the Quran or ‘wazifahs’ in an effort to merely
transfer the rewards of your recitations to another would not be in accordance
with the Sunnah and Guidance of the Messenger of Allah (saws).
Whatever written of Truth and benefit is only
due to Allah’s Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error is of me
alone. Allah Alone Knows Best and He is
the Only Source of Strength.
Your brother and
well wisher in Islam,
