Mishkat al-Masabih — Hadith #50415

On the authority of Abu Saeed, he said: A woman came to the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, while we were with him, and she said: My husband is Safwan ibn al-Mu’tal. He beats me when I pray, breaks my fast when I fast, and does not pray the dawn prayer until the sun rises. He said: Safwan was with him. He said: So he asked him about what she said. He said: O Messenger of God, as for her saying: He strikes me when I pray, it is recited with two surahs and I have forbidden it. He said: So the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said May God bless him and grant him peace: “If it were one Surah, it would be enough for the people.” He said: As for her saying it breaks my fast if I fast, she goes off to fast and I A young man, and I cannot be patient. The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: “A woman should not fast except with her husband’s permission.” As for her saying: “I do not pray.” Until the sun rises, for we are the people of a household that has been known to us. We can hardly wake up until the sun rises. He said: “Then when you wake up, O Safwan, pray.” Narrated by Abu Dawud and Ibn Majah
