If a man calls his wife to the bed and she refuses, does she sin?

Question : This is a questioner who says: A woman in her fifty-third year, and the man is in his seventh, calls her to the bed, and she refuses. Is there any blame on her for refusing?

Answer : In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, his Companions, and those who follow them in excellence until the Day of Judgment. She is to be blamed, and by doing so she is a sinner, exposing herself to the curse of Allah. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: So let her seek help from Allah and respond to her husband's desire, and she will find in the pleasure of obedience what will make her return young, if Allah wills.
