Must a wife ask her husband for permission to go out with her friends, and must she obey him if he asks to see her without clothes via the internet, even though the marriage has not yet been consummated?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
We have previously clarified that if the husband pays the prompt portion of his wife's dower, she is obligated to obey him in what is good, and she is not permitted to leave the house without his permission; otherwise, she is not. As for the request to see her naked via the internet, it is better to avoid it due to the insecurity of the internet, as someone else might see her. We advise the husband to be patient, avoid things that arouse lust, be diligent in fasting, keep good company, occupy his free time with what is beneficial, and hasten to consummate his marriage with his wife to preserve his chastity and hers.
