In the Holy Books are wives described as being a sex object, a commodity or a possession of their husbands?

Bible: No       Qur'an: Yes

1 Peter 3:7 – In like manner, ye husbands dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honor unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life, that your prayers be not hindered.

Ephesians 5:25 – Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it.


Al-Baqara 2:223 – Your wives are a tilth (field to be plowed) unto you. Go, then, into your tilth as you will.

Ali 'Imran 3:14 – Fair in the eyes of men is the love of things they covet: women and sons, heaped-up hordes of gold and silver; branded horses, cattle and plantations.
