The husband withholding maintenance from his disobedient wife

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: If a wife denies her husband his right in the bed, is it permissible for him to withhold her maintenance?

The Shaykh:
Withhold what from her?

The questioner:
Her maintenance.

The Shaykh:
Her maintenance. If doing so deters her from what she is committing, there is nothing wrong with it. Yes.
