Source: FtawySummarized from the full answer at Ftawy · imported Sep 2, 2026
A woman is permitted to dance for her husband if it is free from any forbidden elements.
However, if the husband drinks alcohol, the wife must advise him and forbid his evil deed.
It is not permissible for her to sit with him or dance for him while he is drinking alcohol, due to the Prophet’s (peace be upon him) prohibition of sitting at a table where alcohol is served.
If he abstains from drinking alcohol after being advised, then praise be to Allah. Otherwise, she has the right to seek divorce.
