The ruling on a wife refusing her husband when he calls her to the bed

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
His other question: He says that his wife sleeps in the second room and leaves him, and that he has warned her with a severe warning from Allah the Mighty and Majestic and from the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him).

Answer:
This action is not permissible for her. This is nushuz (marital defiance), which Allah and His Messenger have forbidden. Nushuz is when a wife refuses her husband in his right over her. If he calls her to his bed, it is obligatory for her to come to him, and this is his right over her. If he calls her and she does not come and spends the night alone, the angels curse her until morning, as stated in the hadith. So the danger for her is great. She should repent to Allah the Mighty and Majestic. Yes.
