Is it permissible for female students to study in universities? And does the husband have the right to prevent her from doing so?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner: Peace be upon you.

The Shaykh : And upon you be peace and the mercy of Allah.

The questioner : How is the Shaykh?

The Shaykh : Praise be to Allah, I am well.

The questioner : How is your health?

The Shaykh : May Allah preserve you.

The questioner : May Allah strengthen you, if Allah wills.

The Shaykh : May Allah keep you safe.

The questioner : Shaykh, we have a sister who called you thirty days ago in al-Rusayfah!

The Shaykh : Yes.

The questioner : She enrolled in university education.

The Shaykh : Yes.

The questioner : And she comes home late.

The Shaykh: Yes.

The questioner : I am the groom.

The Shaykh: Yes.

The questioner : I heard that you asked me.

The Shaykh : Yes, because she told me that you are preventing her from studying in the university.

The questioner : I mean, I want to get married anew.

The Shaykh : I know, but he said: You are married.

The questioner : Yes?

The Shaykh : He said: You are married.

The questioner: Yes.

The Shaykh : I mean, do you have a wife?

The questioner : I have a wife and children.

The Shaykh : Oh, and you want to marry this one?

The questioner: Yes.

The Shaykh : The point is, she told me that you are preventing her from studying in the university.

The questioner: Yes.

The Shaykh : And she says that there is no mixing in the university, but I swear to you that there is mixing.

The questioner : Yes, some of our brothers.

The Shaykh : The point is, my brother.

The questioner: Yes.

The Shaykh : What I know is that there is mixing, and she is saying there is no mixing, and I do not want to sit and discuss it with her on the phone.

The questioner : May Allah reward you with good.

The Shaykh : So I told her: If there is no mixing, studying is permissible, but if he does not want it, she must obey him, and if there is mixing, studying is not permissible, even if the husband wants it. That is the answer.

The questioner : May Allah bless you.

The Shaykh : May Allah preserve you.
