Is it permissible for a husband to expel his wife from the bedroom and deprive her of her children, claiming her refusal to share the bed, while he is aware of his relationship with another woman and constantly provokes her?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

It is incumbent upon both spouses to live together amicably. It is recommended for the husband to sleep with his wife in one bed, but it is not obligatory. Relations or conversations between non-mahram men and women are not permissible without a need. It is not permissible for the husband to harm his wife verbally or physically, or to provoke her anger by frequently speaking about marrying another woman. However, he is permitted to marry another woman if he is capable and does not fear injustice. He is not allowed to prevent his mother from seeing her grandchild. The wife is advised to communicate with her husband and remind him of living together amicably, and of the injunction to treat women well and be kind to them.
