We cannot imagine authority without there being obedience
Shaykh Sālih Ibn Fawzān Al-Fawzān حفظه الله said:
“We cannot imagine authority without there being obedience.
The home is like a school or an administration.
If a person in charge of an organization or a school has employees who do not obey him, then how will the work flow smoothly?
The home is similar to this. Indeed obedience to the husband is a legislative obligation, which the woman is rewarded for performing. To the extent that we find that obedience to the husband takes precedence over supererogatory acts of worship. The Prophet ﷺ said, ‘The woman is not to fast while her husband is present except with his permission.’ In this is an indication of the importance of obedience to the husband to the point that it takes precedence over supererogatory fasting.”
