The answer

Marital disputes require wisdom and reason, not anger or insults, as anger only complicates problems. The Prophet, peace be upon him, advised against anger and forbade slandering, cursing, and obscenity. A husband insulting your father and relatives is an offense against in-laws and their rights. Anger does not negate responsibility if the person knows what he is saying, and whoever causes an insult is as sinful as the one who utters it directly. It is among the major sins for a man to insult his parents, such as insulting another man's father, which then causes his own father to be insulted. Among the best solutions is to avoid the causes of anger and to treat it with legitimate means. As for preventing procreation, the mentioned circumstances between the spouses do not justify discontinuing it. It is not the right of the guardian to prevent a woman from returning to her husband if she wishes, based on the verse: "And when you divorce women and they have fulfilled their term, do not prevent them from remarrying their [former] husbands if they agree among themselves on reasonable terms."
