So, Abu Abdullah -asws said: ‘ They came with a man to Rasool-Allah -saww who suffered from illness of the belly and the veins of his thighs were visible, and he had committed adultery with a sick woman. So Rasool-Allah -saww ordered a palm branch which had a hundred stalks to it, so the man was whipped with it by one lash, and the woman was whipped with it with one lash, then he -saww freed both their ways.

Then he -saww recited this Verse: (We Said): “And take a green branch in your hand and strike with it and do not break your oath!” ’.

[6] The Prophet of Islam -saww has forbidden husband from beating his wife: Rasool Allah -saww , has forbidden husband to beat his wife in his -saww farewell Hajj sermon: أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنَّ النِّسَاءَ عِنْدَكُمْ عَوَارٍ- لَا يَمْلِكْنَ لِأَنْفُسِهِنَّ ضَرّاً وَ لَا نَفْعاً أَخَذْتُمُوهُنَّ بِأَمَانَةِ اللَّهِ وَ اسْتَحْلَلْتُمْ فُرُوجَهُنَّ بِكَلِمَاتِ اللَّهِ فَلَكُمْ عَلَيْهِنَّ حَقٌّ وَ لَهُنَّ عَلَيْكُمْ حَقٌّ O you people! The women in your possessions are defenceless!

They are neither controlling any harm for themselves nor benefit. You are taking them in the Entrustment of Allah -azwj and are legalising their private parts with the Phrases of Allah -azwj . There is a right for you upon them and there is a right for them upon you.

وَ مِنْ حَقِّكُمْ عَلَيْهِنَّ أَنْ لَا يُوطِئْنَ فُرُشَكُمْ وَ لَا يَعْصِيَنَّكُمْ فِي مَعْرُوفٍ فَإِذَا فَعَلْنَ ذَلِكَ فَلَهُنَ‏ رِزْقُهُنَّ وَ كِسْوَتُهُنَّ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ‏ وَ لَا تَضْرِبُوهُنَّ- And from their rights upon you is that they should not tread on your beds (with someone else), nor disobey you in good acts. When they do that, for them is their sustenance and their clothing with the moderation, and you cannot beat them (An extract from the farewell sermon of Rasool Allah -saww ).
