Hakeemul Ummat Hazrat Mawlana Shah Ashraf Ali Thanawi ra said;

“Islah (self-reformation) of women can be done more effectively by the Sheikh than their husbands’.”

Hakeemul Ummat ra kay hayret-angez waqiyat, page 35

Men should be busy with their own islah. They should never even dare to make islah of anyone, except themselves, without consulting and getting permission from their Sheikh first.
