It is permissible for the wronged woman to supplicate against her oppressor to the extent of the injustice inflicted upon her. If the husband prevents his wife, whom he has accused, from going to her family and threatens divorce, then the wife should not go to them. Instead, she should entrust her affair to Allah, clarify her innocence to her husband, and seek the help of wise and righteous people to speak with him. The wife should treat her husband with kindness, be patient, make abundant supplications, and have a good opinion of Allah, for whoever is righteous and patient—indeed, Allah does not let the reward of the doers of good go to waste.
