Is it unlawful for a wife to leave her husband's bedroom to sleep in another room due to a quarrel between them?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
If a wife abandons her husband's bed without a valid reason, she commits a forbidden act and exposes herself to Allah's wrath. Indeed, the angels curse her until morning. However, if the husband is unjust towards her, her abandonment of the bed is not forbidden, and she has the right to seek retribution from him. It is among the virtues of a woman's character to strive to please her husband, even if he is unjust.
