Whenever a woman harms her husband in this world, his wife from the Houris of Paradise says: Do not harm him! May Allah destroy you! He is but a passing guest with you, and he will soon leave you to join us
عن معاذ بن جبل رضي الله عنه مرفوعاً: «لا تؤذي امرأةٌ زوجَها في الدنيا إلا قالت زوجته من الحُورِ العِينِ لا تُؤْذِيهِ قاتلك الله! فإنما هو عندك دَخِيلٌ يُوشِكُ أن يفارقَكِ إلينا».
Mu‘ādh ibn Jabal (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whenever a woman harms her husband in this world, his wife from the Houris of Paradise says: 'Do not harm him! May Allah destroy you! He is but a passing guest with you, and he will soon leave you to join us.'"

Explanation
The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade the wife from harming her husband, because the husband is but a guest in this world and he will soon depart to the Hereafter where he will enter Paradise and join his Houri wives therein.
