Since the Quran states that men have a dominant position over women in the family, is it true that Muslims are allowed to insult their wives at home?

No, this is not true. Muslims are not allowed to insult their wives at home or anywhere else. It is forbidden in Islam to disrespect or demean any members of the opposite gender. Islam establishes complementarity between men and women and expects both genders to show respect and kindness towards each other in all situations. Furthermore, Quran actually prohibits believers from uttering any curse, abuse, or reprimand against their spouses, so as not to hurt each other's feelings; it also advises them to address each other with comfort instead of anger (NLT Verse 4).

No, it is not true that Muslims are allowed to insult their wives at home. The Quran states that men should be kind and courteous to their wives and treat them with respect. Furthermore, the family structure within Islam places a high emphasis on equality; both spouses are expected to consult one another on important matters and both have an equal responsibility in raising the children and managing the finances.
