Hadith text: Whoever incites a woman against her husband or a slave…

عن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه مرفوعاً: «من خَبَّبَ زوجة امْرِئٍ أو مَمْلُوكَهُ فليس مِنَّا».

Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever incites a woman against her husband or a slave against his master is not one of us. "

Explanation of the hadith: Whoever incites a woman against her husband or a slave…

Whoever tries to incite a women against her husband, whether the inciter is a male or a female, by mentioning her husband's demerits and bad manners in her presence so as to make her hate him and rebel against him and try to free herself from him either by divorce or separation, or if someone incites a slave against his master and does things with him that make him rebel against his master and treat him in a bad manner, is not following our guidance or our methodology; rather this is from the work of the devil.
