The Compilation of Islamic Laws is compiled with considering the moeslem scholars thought especially they who adhere to al-Syafi’i notion. The theologians themselves are oriented to the Qur’an and Hadith in defining laws.

It is found that the difference is when the wifes commit nusyuz, their reights will be eliminated. The notion is more likely based on the scholars judgement and it is not clearly elaborated in the Hadith.
