The husband gets angry when his wife gives birth to a girl 

Question: 

Some of the Muslims, may Allaah guide them, get angry when Allaah blesses them 
with daughters, and they get very upset when a daughter arrives. I also know 
someone who has threatened to divorce his wife if she produces a daughter. I 
hope that you can shed some light on this topic from the point of view of 
Islamic sharee'ah. 


Answer: 

Praise be to Allaah. 

Undoubtedly this action is one of the deeds of the first Jaahiliyyah, from the 
conduct of its ill-mannered people, those who were blamed and condemned in the 
Qur'aan and Sunnah. 

How similar things are today to those times. If you visit any maternity

{Invite (mankind, O Muhammad ) to the Way of your Lord (i.e. Islam) with wisdom 
(i.e. with the Divine Inspiration and the Qur'an) and fair preaching, and argue 
with them in a way that is better. Truly, your Lord knows best who has gone 
astray from His Path, and He is the Best Aware of those who are guided.} 
(Holy Quran-16:125)

{And who is better in speech than he who [says: "My Lord is Allah (believes in 
His Oneness)," and then stands straight (acts upon His Order), and] invites 
(men) to Allah's (Islamic Monotheism), and does righteous deeds, and says: "I 
am one of the Muslims."} (Holy Quran-41:33)
 
The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "By Allah, if 
Allah guides one person by you, it is better for you than the best types of 
camels." [al-Bukhaaree, Muslim] 

The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him)  also said, "Whoever 
calls to guidance will have a reward similar to the reward of the one who 
follows him, without the reward of either of them being lessened at all." 
[Muslim, Ahmad, Aboo Daawood, an-Nasaa'ee, at-Tirmidhee, Ibn Maajah]
