Forcing the wife to inform her husband of what happens in her other house
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A man says: He has two wives, and he told one of them, "I will not forgive you in this world or the Hereafter if you do not inform me, while I am away, of what happens in my other house." Is his statement permissible? And is that wife required to inform him?
The Shaykh:
Her other house.
The questioner:
Yes, his second wife. Yes.
The Shaykh:
Her other house, meaning another wife. She is not required to spy on the other wife; she is not required to do that, and she does not obey him in this.
