Is it wrong for me to withhold living expenses until my wife apologizes and stays in my house?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
I constructed a 2 bedroom apartment on secondfloor of my parents house and my mother father and my wife kitchen is same and iam in canada so my wife was not comfortable in house for all house works so she left the house and i had a lot of arguments with her and said you would have stayed in same building and tried to find out the solution for the problem then i would have helped you but i warned you not to go out of my house but you left and went to your parents to whom i hate. so iam not happy with you and i will not give your living expenses unless you realizes your mistake and ask forgiveness with me. i dont like her parents way of living. iam ready to give her living expenses if she asks for sorry and stays in my house? iam i wrong?

The solution of your problem is that first of all you should remove the complaint of your wife. Whatever you say is not wrong but since women have less wit; hence you should try to make her understand politely instead of warning her. It is hoped that she shall admit her mistake.
