Is it permissible for a woman to obey her husband if he orders her to do some of the things that are forbidden?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original

The questioner : Is it permissible for a woman to obey her husband if he orders her to do some of the things that are forbidden, such as if he asks her to pluck her eyebrows or something similar?

The Shaykh : This is a settled matter, as he (peace and blessings be upon him) said:

A creature is not to be obeyed when it involves disobedience to the "Creator.”

لا طاعة لمخلوق في معصية الخالق

Mishkat al-Masabih 3696

This is sufficient, and praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds.
