Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
A husband's words to his wife that hurt her feelings and contradict Allah's command to treat wives with kindness, as in His Almighty's saying: "And live with them honorably," and there is no benefit in it. The wife is also commanded to treat her husband with kindness, as in His Almighty's saying: "And due to them is similar to what is expected of them, according to what is reasonable," and it is not good companionship to cause him distress. So let each of them preserve the right of the other.
