Responsibilities Of A Wife
To my understanding, lightly beating is only allowed after all other recommendations fail and lightly beating is the last thing that might save a marriage. If lightly beating is not likely to help save the marriage, then instead of beating, divorce will be a better choice. If a women is the sole bread earner then she has the right and if she is stronger than the husband, then she can beat husband lightly just to save marriage only after all other methods fail.
