Abstract
Referring to the Quranic verse that allows physical discipline of women has caused embarrassment to the Sharia law, as many scholars, imams, preachers, and intellectuals have cited it. The term "hitting" has created semantic issues, especially when combining Quranic texts that promote good deeds and kindness, which fall under the objectives of building a stable family, with prophetic texts that explicitly prohibit mistreatment of wives and completely forbid hitting them. Furthermore, the actual actions of the Prophet do not demonstrate the use of hitting as a form of discipline. Can the tools of Islamic jurisprudence resolve this reading discrepancy?
