The Meaning of Enjoying a Woman in a State of Deviation
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, does “enjoying her in a state of deviation” mean that you are satisfied with her sin and remain silent about it, or that you leave her to do whatever she desires?
Answer:
No, the issue is not about silencing her voice. You must not disobey Allah. However, in terms of natural disposition, it means that you differ with her on some matters, or that you do not get what you want in all matters that are not disobedience to Allah the Exalted. What lies between you and her is merely a difference of opinion; it is not disobedience to Allah. It is not permissible for him to approve of her doing so.
