What is the ruling on a wife disobeying her husband if he prevents her from going out to the market?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: My wife goes out to the market, and I am not pleased with that, and she says, "You have no right to do that." What is the ruling on her saying that, and "You are not mine"?

Answer:
Her statement is invalid; because you have the right to prevent her, and it is not permissible for a woman to leave her husband's house except with his permission. If she leaves without his permission, she is disobedient. She must repent to Allah, and she must not leave except with her husband's permission.
