Reminding one's wife of one's kindness to her: Is this among the prohibited *man*?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. The questioner says: If a husband reminds his wife of the good he has done for her, does this fall under the prohibited *man*?

The Shaykh:
What does it fall under?

The questioner:
Under the prohibited *man*?

The Shaykh:
This depends on the reason for it. If he mentions his kindness and good treatment of her in order for her to love him and to be good in her conduct with him, there is nothing wrong with that; there is nothing wrong with that. But if he mentions it out of boasting and looking down on her, this is not permissible, neither with her nor with anyone else. Yes.
