Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, this is a question from a woman, or a request from a woman, who says: We seek advice from your eminence for husbands who beat their wives severely and humiliatingly for the most trivial reasons?
Answer:
This severe beating is not permissible; it is not permissible. Allah said that this is the final stage: “And beat them.” But the beating must not be severe; it must not split the skin or break a bone, but only cause pain. Yes.
