Is the wife sinful or blameworthy for not cohabiting with her husband for seven months, despite her fulfilling his other rights, due to his persistent false accusations against her honor and his continuous threats to her and her children? Is it permissible for her to continue this cessation, knowing that her husband has divorced her twice and taken her back the second time, and that she has decided not to speak with him because of his harm to her and her illness?

Mistrusting a Muslim and accusing them of something they are innocent of is among the most dangerous matters, especially if it concerns one's wife and honor, for that is a grave sin. If a husband accuses his wife without proof, beats her, abuses her, and threatens her, this indicates bad character and disobedience to Allah. The duty is to advise him with wisdom and good admonition, and to seek help from people of knowledge and virtue. The wife has the right to prevent him from hurtful speech, but she is not allowed to completely abandon him and must fulfill his rights, including his right to the bed. It is not advisable for a wife to abandon her abusive husband, even if some scholars permit it, because there is often no benefit in doing so.
