What right can any wife demand of her husband?

Mu`aawiyah Ibn Haydah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: “I asked the Messenger of Allaah (sallallahu `alayhi wa sallam) "What right can any wife demand of her husband?'' He replied: “Give her food when you eat, clothe her when you clothe yourself, do not strike her on the face, and do not revile her or separate from her except within the house.” [Abu Daawood]
