The questioner : Our Shaykh, if the man, meaning the husband, is traveling and asks his wife not to fast, does she disobey him?
The Shaykh : Repeat the question for me, because according to what I heard, or rather what I understood, the answer to it has already been given.
The questioner : I mean, the meaning is not reasonable.
The Shaykh : Repeat your question.
The questioner : If the husband is traveling and asks his wife not to fast.
The Shaykh : I mean, before he travels?
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : He asked her not to fast the voluntary fast.
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : The answer has already been given, but the new thing in the matter is that he is traveling, meaning he does not want to, or is unable to, enjoy her, but the man, O Shaykh, is far-sighted.
The questioner : ... the sight, O Shaykh.
The Shaykh : And therefore, she must obey him?
The questioner : If the matter is about following desire.
