Is it permissible for a husband to threaten his wife with marrying another as a reward for her patience with him during his illness? Is it permissible for her to refuse this? Is the wife sinful for refusing the husband to consult his mother on matters of their life? Is it permissible for the mother to interfere in the husband's expenses and influence him? What are the aspects of a husband's command to his wife?

You have done well by safeguarding yourself and lowering your gaze, despite your husband's inability to provide for your chastity. The husband must treat his wife well with beautiful companionship, refraining from harm, offering kindness, and good conduct. Polygyny is permissible with its conditions, and the wife does not have the right to refuse it, but she has the right to demand justice between her and the other wife regarding overnight stays and financial support. A husband's dutifulness to his mother is a good thing, but not at the expense of his wife and children, and he must give every rightful person their due. There is no sin upon you if you dislike him consulting his mother on private household matters. There is no issue with him consulting his mother if he seeks advice from her, but she should only advise on what is righteous. The husband must manage his mother's affairs and spend on his wife and children equitably, and he should not reduce their expenses to please his mother. Obedience to the mother is not absolutely obligatory, but rather in matters that are beneficial to her and do not cause him harm. There is no harm in him honoring his family, but without being stingy towards his wife and children.
