Is a wife entitled to demand her rights if her husband does not treat her justly?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner says: My husband has three wives, but he does not treat them justly. What should I do?

Answer:
We do not know what she means by justice. If she means that he is neglecting her financial maintenance, clothing, housing, or sharing his nights with her, and she is demanding her rights, then if he has been negligent in any of these four things, she should demand her rights. Yes.
