The answer

The Holy Quran and the Prophetic Sunnah contain texts that obligate a wife to obey her husband, unless it involves disobedience to Allah. Among these are the words of Allah Almighty: "Men are in charge of women by [right of] what Allah has given some over others and what they spend [to support them] from their wealth," and His saying, glory be to Him: "And due to them [women] is similar to what is expected from them, according to what is reasonable. But the men have a degree over them." From the Sunnah: "If a woman prays her five [daily prayers], fasts her month [Ramadan], guards her chastity, and obeys her husband, she will enter Paradise from any of its gates she wishes." As stated in the Hadith: "Indeed, he is your Paradise and your Hell." And the texts with this meaning are numerous.
