The Wife’s Refusal to Share Her Husband’s Bed

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: If a wife refuses to respond to her husband’s call to his bed without a clear reason, does she fall under the curse?

Answer:
Yes, indeed. A woman whose husband calls her to his bed and she refuses him is a defiant wife. This is defiance, and the angels curse her until morning, as mentioned in the hadith. Yes.
