" عَنْ عَلِىٍّ قَالَ: أَتَى النبِىَّ ﷺ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الأنْصَار بِامْرَأَة لَهُ فَقَالَتْ: يَا رَسُولَ الله: إِنَّ زَوْجَهَا فُلاَنُ ابْنُ فُلاَنٍ الأنْصَارِىُّ، وَأَنَّهُ ضَرَبَهَا فَأثَرَ فِى وَجْهِهَا، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ الله ﷺ: لَيْسَ لَهُ ذَلكَ. فَأنْزَلَ الله {الرِّجَالُ قَوَّامُونَ عَلَى النِّسَاءِ بِمَا فَضَّلَ اللَّهُ بَعْضَهُمْ عَلَى بَعْضٍ} أَىْ: قَوَّامُونَ عَلَى النسَاءِ فِى الأدَب. فَقَالَ رَسُولُ الله ﷺ أَرَدْتُ أَمْرًا وَأَرَادَ الله غَيْرَه".

"From Ali, who said: A man from the Ansar came to the Prophet ﷺ with his wife. She said: O Messenger of Allah, her husband, so-and-so the son of so-and-so the Ansari, struck her and left a mark on her face. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: He has no right to that. So Allah revealed: {Men are in charge of women by what Allah has given one over the other}, meaning: they are in charge over women in discipline. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: I intended a matter, and Allah intended other than it."
