The husband's rights over his wife and her rights over him

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. The questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, I am asking about the husband's rights over his wife, and what are the wife's rights over her husband?

Answer:
Each of them has rights. The husband's rights over his wife are that she obeys him, that she does not leave his house except with his permission, that she does not let anyone into his house except with his permission, and that she responds to him when he asks for her in the bed, and does not refuse. Also, she must do the housework and raise the children; this is part of assisting the husband with his duties. The husband is required to provide his wife with financial maintenance, housing, clothing, and to treat her with kindness. Allah the Exalted said: "And live with them in kindness." Yes.
