What is the ruling on a husband going to his second wife when he is angry with his first, knowing that the reason for the dispute is his failure to respond to her words and his ignoring of her, and then he takes the breakfast designated for her and the children and goes with it to the second wife?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

A husband who does these things is abusing his wife's companionship and infringing upon her right. It is the wife's right upon her husband that he should not enter upon her co-wife during her allotted time without need, that he should safeguard her secret, and that he should spend on her with what is reasonable. However, the wife should treat her husband wisely, refraining from what angers him, and striving to please him if she has angered him.
