The answer

The case presented to the court is the most appropriate for consideration. And whoever lied to the woman and deceived her must repent and seek her forgiveness. It is not permissible for a wife to leave her home without her husband's permission unless there is a legitimate Islamic reason. The wife has the right to an independent dwelling, and if the part allocated to her in the family home is independent with its facilities, then the husband has fulfilled his obligation. The husband must spend on his wife

with kindness and treat her likewise.
