How to boycott one's wife during the night

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
That is if he boycotts her, he sleeps with his co-wife.

The Shaykh:
Yes. If he boycotts her, he sleeps at the home of her co-wife. He does not boycott her except in the house. If he is boycotting her in the house, as the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
or separate yourself from her except in the houseلا تهجر إلا في البيت
Sunan Abi Dawud 2142Hasan Sahih (Al-Albani)
, and he does not boycott her and leave them all alone if that is the case. The intended meaning is that he boycotts the one who is entitled to the night, and he sleeps at her place in the house so that no fitnah (trial, discord or temptation) occurs. He boycotts her between himself and her, and he goes to another wife on her night. If the issue involves all of them, he boycotts them all in another place.

Another questioner:
If it is from one, Shaykh, the talk is with the second one.

The Shaykh:
He sleeps with her but does not approach her; he sleeps on the bed, giving her his back, or on another bed, in his house.
