Is the Umrah of a woman who refused her husband's intimacy accepted?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

A woman is not permitted to refuse her husband's bed without a legitimate Shariah-compliant excuse; otherwise, she is disobedient and must repent. Indeed, the angels curse her until morning, and she is considered rebellious (nashiz), making it permissible to strike her. The husband's right is more obligatory for her to fulfill after the right of Allah and His Messenger. It has been reported that her prayer is not accepted, nor is any good deed elevated for her if her husband spends the night displeased with her until he is satisfied.
