Question:
Is there any basis for disciplining a wife by divorce?
Answer:
No, it is done through words and advice, or light beating. As for disciplining by divorce, it may lead to complete separation; he divorces her today, then divorces her again, and then the third divorce occurs and she is separated from him. He should discipline her with kind words, advice, and guidance, or with light discipline, as Allah the Exalted said: [Surat al-Nisa: 34]. This is the discipline: boycotting her for a day or two, or three days, and boycotting her for longer than that if the need calls for it.
