abudawud:2142Mūsá b. Ismāʿīl > Ḥammād > Abū Qazaʿah al-Bāhilī > Ḥakīm b. Muʿāwiyah al-Qushayrī from his father

Mu'awiyah asked: Messenger of Allah, what is the right of the wife of one of us over him? He replied: That you should give her food when you eat, clothe her when you clothe yourself, do not strike her on the face, do not revile her or separate yourself from her except in the house. Abu Dawud said: The meaning of "do not revile her" is, as you say: "May Allah revile you".
