What is the ruling when a husband dictates the method of charging his wife's mobile phone line, and the wife refuses? And what is the ruling on the wife's statement, "Do you want someone to curse this religion for you?" And does this statement expel her from the religion?
Spouses should live together amicably and debate in the best manner. If the husband insists on a specific method for charging the mobile phone, he has that right, because the money is his. The wife should try to convince him with wisdom and gentleness if she desires something else. The husband should listen to her point of view and act upon it if it serves a benefit. It appears that the wife's statement, "What does religion have to do with it?" was not intended as an insult to religion, but rather to deny that what her husband was saying was part of religion. Thus, she does not apostatize by this statement, despite its unseemliness.
