As a Muslim, can I freely insult, punish, or even beat my wife at home since the Quran explicitly stipulates the dominant position of men over women in the family?

No, you cannot. The Quran does explicitly stipulate the dominant position of men over women in the family, but this does not give a Muslim man the right to insult or physically punish his wife. Islam teaches that men and women should be partners, with each person bringing their unique strengths and capabilities to build a stronger relationship. Any form of physical abuse is prohibited and goes against Islamic teachings.

No, as a Muslim you cannot freely insult, punish or beat your wife at home since the Quran also teaches that men should be compassionate and just towards women. Islam allows husbands to exercise authority over their wives in a gentle and fair manner but this authority does not give permission for any abusive treatment.
