The answer

A wife is permitted to request a divorce from her husband if he frequently lies and consults sorcerers and charlatans, as his wickedness and immorality are grounds for seeking a divorce. However, as long as the woman is under the marital authority of her husband and suffers no harm by remaining in his home, she is not permitted to leave him without necessity; otherwise, she would be considered disobedient.
