Answer:

It is forbidden for a husband to coerce his wife by staying away from her bed for more than four months without her consent, according to the Words of Allah, Most High:
"so do not incline too much to one of them (by giving her more of your time and provision) so as to leave the other hanging (i.e. neither divorced nor married)."

"and do not harm them so as to straiten them (that they be obliged to leave your house).

And it is an obligation upon the husband to be equitable with his wives, and to be just with them in matters of housing, expenditure, clothing etc. Whoever does not do so has wronged his wife and behaved badly in his relationship with her - unless she was disobedient, in which case, he may stay away from her for as long as is necessary or part from her.
