Bad Men for Bad Women?

If a man's wife is bad, will he be?


S 24:26 Malignant women are for malignant men and malignant men are for malignant women. And good women are for good men and good men are for good women. Those are exonerated from what they say. Theirs is forgiveness and a generous provision.


Let's look at a few more verses.


S 66:3-5 And when the prophet confided a hadith in some of his husbands and when she informed of it and Allah revealed it to him he told some of it and exposed some. Then when he informed her of it she said: Who informed you of this? He said: The learned, the expert has informed me. If you repent to Allah--your hearts have deviated. And if you back one another up against him then Allah, he is his mawla and Jibril and the righteous of the believers, and the angels after that are an assistant. Perhaps his lord if he divorced you would exchange for him husbands better than you, surrendering, believing, obedient, repentant, worshipping, fasting, matrons and virgins.


If Hafsah and Aisha were bad, then was their husband? Background to this:


S 66:10 Allah has given an example for those who have disbelieved: Nuh’s woman and Lut’s woman. They were under two slaves of our righteous slaves but they betrayed them. So they did not avail anything from Allah. And it was said: Enter the fire with those who enter.


Nuh's and Lut's 'women' betrayed them. If they were bad, were these 'prophets'?


Narrated Abu Huraira:

The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "But for the Israelis, meat would not decay and but for Eve, wives would never betray their husbands."


If Eve fornicated with someone, with whom?


Going by tafsir, it would appear that Adam and Eve were mushrikun. Articles:
