Bismillah! As salaamu alaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa Baraakatuh,
Is to prepare everything that needs preparation, such as providing food and drink for the guests and cleaning the bedroom and bathroom, making sure they smell pleasant. This type of house cleaning is not befitting for any intelligent woman to neglect. Oh sister, there should not be a day that goes by except that you make rounds around the home, cleaning, arranging, and returning the house back to its original appearance. For indeed, it is a disliked practice for a woman to neglect the things that she should in fact pay close attention to, especially while hosting guests.
As for guests, then they are like ambassadors, news carriers: so no intelligent woman would like for any news to be conveyed about her home except that which is best. If you receive word that visitors are coming to your home, arrange the men's quarters, cleaning all the nooks and crannies. Be keen on cleaning the areas that kids can tamper with and the eyes are shy to look at. Verily the intelligent person understands by simply pointing.
