اَلرِّجَالُ قَوَّامُونَ عَلَى النِّسَٓاءِ بِمَا فَضَّلَ اللّٰهُ بَعْضَهُمْ عَلٰى بَعْضٍ وَبِمَٓا اَنْفَقُوا مِنْ اَمْوَالِهِمْۜ فَالصَّالِحَاتُ قَانِتَاتٌ حَافِظَاتٌ لِلْغَيْبِ بِمَا حَفِظَ اللّٰهُۜ وَالّٰت۪ي تَخَافُونَ نُشُوزَهُنَّ فَعِظُوهُنَّ وَاهْجُرُوهُنَّ فِي الْمَضَاجِعِ وَاضْرِبُوهُنَّۚ فَاِنْ اَطَعْنَكُمْ فَلَا تَبْغُوا عَلَيْهِنَّ سَب۪يلًاۜ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ كَانَ عَلِيًّا كَب۪يرًا ٣٤

English Translation
34Because Allah has given them rights and authority in different areas relative to women, and because they provide for their households, men are managers and protectors over women. Chaste women are obedient, and in their husbands' absence they guard their chastity and honor, which Allah has commanded to be protected. As for your wives from whom you fear indecency, first admonish them, then separate their beds, and then let them go. If they obey, do not look for an excuse to punish them. Surely Allah is Most High, Most Great.
