Ta’weez for a Big Mouth

Some women have the habit of being big mouths in front of the husband. They are never quiet in front of him, so much so that some husbands hit the wife, but she still does not remain quiet.

An incident comes to mind. There was a woman who was a big mouth and her husband would hit her a lot. She went to a Buzrug asking for a Ta’weez through which her husband would stop hitting her.

He was a Buzrug (saintly man), and very intelligent. He understood that she has a big mouth, that is why she gets beaten.

The Buzrug said: “Okay, bring some water, I will read and blow over it.”

The water was brought and he read and blew over it. He then said to her: “When your husband becomes angry then sit down, take a gulp of this water and keep it in your mouth. Insha Allah, he will not hit you.”

She did as she was told to do, sitting down, taking a gulp of water and keeping it in her mouth. Now the big mouth she had went away. How could the poor thing speak? Her mouth was now locked. The husband became happy with her then.

This was, in fact, a wonderful prescription.

In short, having a big mouth is a grave sickness among women, and all of this is due to takabbur (haughtiness). Women do not want to lose an argument so that their pride is not lost.
