Voluntary Fasting by a Wife Without Her Husband's Permission

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
This is a woman asking, and she says: Your Excellency the Shaykh, I, O Shaykh, fast on Mondays and Thursdays and the white days, and my husband gets angry that I fast repeatedly without his knowledge. What should I do? He is married to a second woman, but he spends most of his time with me.

The Shaykh:
You are wrong. Do not fast voluntary fasts except with his permission.

The questioner:
You are wrong in this? Yes.
