Is it valid for a wife to stipulate to her husband that he not divorce her?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original

The questioner : The Shaykh ... If she stipulated that he not ... himself, that he not marry another woman over her, and that he not divorce her.

The Shaykh : The stipulation is not valid; the second one, that he not divorce her, is not valid.

The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : No, that is not a right of the wife. This fatwa, and Allah knows best, belongs to the husband, and this prevents what Allah has made lawful.
