The wife’s refusal of her husband due to a psychological condition

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: What is the ruling on a woman refusing her husband’s request for intercourse because of a psychological condition she is experiencing?

Answer:
She should treat her psychological condition and respond to her husband; it is not permissible for her to refuse her husband. However, she may say that she has a psychological illness, which is an excuse, and she is treating it. Once it is gone, she must respond to her husband. Yes.
