A wife's obedience to her husband in what is good and permissible is obligatory. This includes her answering his calls for reassurance and her appearing to him via the internet if there is no fear of espionage. If she fears, then she must answer while wearing her hijab and showing what is permissible to show in front of people. The relationship must be built on persuasion and mutual understanding, as her refusal might be due to modesty and concern for her honor.
