If the Houris invoke curses upon a wife who harms her husband, then who invokes curses upon the husband if he harms her?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

It is incumbent upon a Muslim to adhere to the sacred texts. When a text addresses an issue, he accepts it and believes in it. If the Sacred Law is silent on a matter, he remains silent about it and entrusts its knowledge to Allah the Almighty. The supplication of the huriyah against a woman who harms her husband has been explicitly stated in the texts. However, nothing similar has been reported regarding a woman's right, such as the supplication of angels or others against a man who harms his wife. It suffices to affirm the prohibition of a man’s oppression and harm towards his wife, and the warning of the Sacred Law against it, as in the Prophet’s (peace and blessings be upon him) saying: "O Allah, I declare inviolable the rights of the two weak ones: the orphan and the woman."
