Are a wife's deeds accepted if her husband wrongs her and she refrains from speaking to him, by analogy with the wife who wrongs her husband, whose deeds are not accepted?
Allah has established rights and duties for each spouse, and He has made the husband's right more emphasized. Therefore, it is not permissible for a wife to refuse her husband's bed without a legitimate excuse, even if the husband has erred. Errors vary; a husband striking his wife is not the same as disciplining her with words or by shunning. If a wife abandons her husband's bed, the angels curse her. The wife should avoid anything that angers her husband.
