i have listened to many discussions about this topic and how the word ''beat'' meant a different thing in Quran and how is was explained via the prophet to not cause them harm, but I came by this hadith and have a hard time believing it.

Iyas ibn Abdullah ibn Abu Dhubab reported the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) as saying:

Do not beat Allah's handmaidens, but when Umar came to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and said: Women have become emboldened towards their husbands, he (the Prophet) gave permission to beat them. Then many women came round the family of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) complaining against their husbands. So the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: Many women have gone round Muhammad's family complaining against their husbands. They are not the best among you.

Reference : Sunan Abi Dawud 2146In-book reference : Book 12, Hadith 101English translation : Book 11, Hadith 2141

i really want to understand Islam more, but things like this make me doubt how peaceful Islam really is. this hadith is authentic. so before i jump to conclutions is there any other explanation to this hadith?
