The answer

It is not permissible for a husband to verbally abuse his wife or her family without just cause. This action is considered forbidden, an offense to the wife, and an injustice to her. The wife should advise him and clarify the religious ruling to him, and seek assistance from his religious relatives. It is more virtuous for the wife not to return ill-treatment with the like thereof, but rather with kindness. However, if this does not work and she is harmed, she has the right to take her case to court and seek a divorce.
