ما هي عقوبة الرجل الذي يضرب زوجته بدون سبب في الشرع؟

1 min readAlso available in العربية

There is no specific punishment in Islamic law for a husband who beats his wife without a legitimate reason, but it is a forbidden act for which the perpetrator deserves ta'zir, which is a punishment determined by the Imam according to the sin and the public interest. Ta'zir may be applied for committing forbidden acts or neglecting obligations. It should be noted that Islamic law has not permitted a husband to beat his wife except within narrow limits and with strict controls. Each spouse should know the rights of the other.
