The husband preventing his wife from bearing children and delaying it

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This is a woman asking, and she says: My husband prevents me from bearing children, and he says that we are delaying this matter for a period. Is this permissible for him?

The Shaykh:
Likewise the matter. We are delaying this matter.

The questioner:
Yes, delaying the bearing of children, that she becomes pregnant from him.

The Shaykh:
No, it is not permissible to delay bearing children except with the consent of both of them, because bearing children is a right for both of them, yes.
