335 - Chapter on the prohibition of a woman refusing to come to her husband’s bed if he invites her, unless she has a Shariah-approved excuse

1749/1 - Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Prophet (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) said: “If a man invites his wife to his bed and she refuses, and so he spends the night angry with her, the angels will curse her until the morning.” [Narrated by Al-Bukhāri and Muslim]

Another narration reads: “until she changes her attitude.”

Guidance from the Hadīth:

1) A woman should help her husband preserve his religion and wellbeing and should try to please him in what does not involve a sin.

2) A wife’s refusal to come to her husband’s bed is a major sin, given the reported curse associated therewith.
