The husband preventing his wife from making up fasts and her obedience to him

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A woman began making up her missed fasts these days, and her husband is asking her to delay them so that the fasting does not affect him and his children. Is this request permissible for him? And is it permissible for her to disobey him?

Answer:
It is not permissible for her to disobey him regarding fasting until her husband gives her permission, unless the time becomes tight. If the time becomes tight and there is no more time left before the coming Ramadan than the number of days she owes, then her husband has no right to prevent her. As for before that, he has the right to prevent her. Yes.
