Is it permissible for a husband to threaten his wife with divorce over every minor disagreement?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The marital bond is a solemn covenant, so it should not be violated or underestimated. Anything that weakens it is abhorrent to Islam. Therefore, a wife should not be threatened with divorce at every disagreement, as this is not part of the good companionship that Allah has commanded.
