The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A woman asks: Is it permissible for a wife to stipulate in her marriage contract that her husband not marry another woman? And if he does marry, what is the ruling on this condition and this marriage?
The Shaykh:
She may stipulate whatever is in her interest, and it is in her interest that he not marry another woman, so there is nothing wrong with it.
The presenter:
Excellent. Yes, indeed.
The Shaykh:
And we have given her this option. If she wishes, she remains with him, and if she wishes, she annuls the marriage because he did not fulfill the condition, for Muslims are bound by their conditions.
