Question:
This questioner says: Your Eminence, father, my husband does not stay in the house except for a short time, and he orders me not to fast, even if he is outside the house. Is it obligatory for me to obey his order?
Answer:
If fasting causes a deficiency in his right, then do not fast. But if there is no deficiency in his right, it is not his right to prevent you from seeking good and seeking reward. Yes.
