Lastly I am puzzled by a hanafi conclusion that a husband can hit his wife on a few occasions one of them is when she refuses to enter the bed. How is this acceptable? Another is for leaving the house without permission and not making salah. How is a husband allowed to dish out that kinda punishment? I mean really she refuses to go to bed with him and he may hit her? That relates to the hadiths about angels cursing the wife. In which context should that be taken sexually or leaving him angry after an arguement? This leaves me wondering about hanafi's being allowed to hit wifes in regards to the hadith.
