Q: My husband drinks alcohol and he forces me to drink, should a muslim wife do that to obey her husband?
A: Alcohol is haraam in Islam. It is impermissible for the wife to obey her husband in things that are declared haraam in Islam. Obedience towards the husband is on account of Shariah commanding the wife to do so. Hence, when the husband commands the wife to do something against Shariah, Shariah commands that the husband be disobeyed in that aspect.
عن أنس بن مالك قال لعن رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم في الخمر عشرة عاصرها ومتعصرها وشاربها وحاملها والمحمولة إليه وساقيها وبائعها وآكل ثمنها والمشتري لها والمشتراة له (جامع الترمذي 1/242)
وعن النواس بن سمعان قال قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم لا طاعة لمخلوق في معصية الخالق رواه في شرح السنة (مشكاة رقم3696)
