Is it permissible for a husband to reconcile with his wife in a home separate from his parents' home, given his parents' refusal of that, and his desire to see his daughter from whom he is deprived?
If the wife treats her husband badly, insults him, and leaves without his permission, she is disobedient and recalcitrant (nashiz). If the divorce is revocable (raj'i), the husband has the right to take her back even if she does not agree, and she is not permitted to refuse to return to the marital home; otherwise, her maintenance (nafaqa) will be forfeited. A solution and reconciliation should be sought by involving wise individuals before resorting to divorce. The husband has the right to refuse to divorce her until she ransoms herself from him with money. Whoever wakes someone for prayer deserves thanks, and good treatment of in-laws is religiously required, especially the husband's parents.
