Does a husband have the right to annul the marriage due to a bad innate character?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : The issue of the insane woman does not apply to us, because it is clear that insanity is a defect, even in terms of innate character, because it is a departure from the normal mind. It may be said that if a woman’s character is very, very bad, to the point that it is absolutely impossible to bear being with her—for example, if she comes to us and says, “What are you doing here? Get out of my face,” or something like that—well, in any case, it is known that some women, may Allah grant us safety, have no good character. It might be said that if this is her usual behavior, if she is accustomed to it, if this is her habit among people, and she repels people, does not get along with them, and does not like staying with them, this might be a defect, perhaps even worse than a defect of innate character. Yes, but the scholars spoke, all the scholars as far as we know, spoke only about innate character. Yes.
