The ruling on a wife refusing to have intercourse with her husband
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is also one of the brothers who says to me: A sister has a dispute with her husband, and she asked for a divorce because she cannot continue with her husband. He does not treat her as husbands do, and she fears that she will commit a sin by withholding herself from her husband. Therefore, she asked for a divorce and asked him to marry another woman, but the husband waived his right to intercourse in exchange for this family continuing. Does she commit a sin?
Answer:
In any case, if they reconcile between themselves, there is nothing wrong with that. However, if they do not reconcile and she withholds herself from him, it is not permissible for her to do so because of his right over her. Yes.
The presenter:
Yes, may Allah bless you.
