The answer

A wife's obedience to her husband is obligatory, with the exception of matters that involve disobedience to Allah or cause harm to her. This is based on the principles: "There is no obedience to a creature in disobedience to Allah" and "There should be neither harm nor reciprocating harm." The husband should help his wife obey Allah and not prevent her from memorizing and reviewing the Qur'an, as this brings blessings and benefit to the family. If the husband wishes to spend time with his wife, she should balance his right with her needs and act wisely to avoid problems.
