Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you with good and do you good. Her questions branching from this topic, Shaykh Salim, have you spoken? Is it permissible for a woman to conceal something from her husband, or must she disclose everything to him?

Answer:
She conceals from him what has no benefit in disclosing, and she discloses to him what has benefit and utility in disclosing. Thus, she does not confide in him about everything, nor does she withhold everything from him; rather, this is according to the benefit.
