Is the wife entitled to request a separate entrance to her home if one is not available in the marital dwelling?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

A wife has the right to an independent dwelling. Her presence in an independent apartment with a shared common entrance does not harm her, because the intent is to prevent discord and to remove any embarrassment from her. It is not necessary for her to have a private staircase. There should be dialogue and understanding between the spouses to avoid disputes.
