The study reached a set of results, where there are several factors of physical assault on the wife, including: economic factors such as the husband’s joblessness, social factors (addiction), psychological factors (anger), religious factors (lack of religious faith), and moral factors (infidelity). These factors have negative effects on society. Therefore, to eliminate these factors, the individual must refer to the provisions of Islamic law and apply them to achieve the goal of “damage must be eradicated” and urging that its eradication must be done by the individual, the family, and society, and by organizations and government agencies in one hand to find solutions to the factors of this phenomenon.arWife abuse -- Law and legislation -- MalaysiaFamily violence -- Law and legislation -- MalaysiaAbused women -- Legal status, laws, etc. -- MalaysiaWomen -- Violence against -- MalaysiaDoctoral Thesis
