Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. If a woman asks her husband for permission to perform i'tikaf and he does not give it, does he sin by doing so?
Answer:
No, he does not sin by that. Yes, he would sin if he prevented her from doing an obligatory act, such as the obligatory prayer or fasting in Ramadan. He has no right to prevent her from doing such things, like Hajj if she has the means to perform it in Islam and has a mahram. It is not permissible for him to prevent her. Yes.
