A girl's university education has rulings that vary according to the subjects studied and the university's circumstances. If it is free from শরীয়াহ (Sharia) prohibitions, it is permissible. Otherwise, it is forbidden unless there is a necessity or a need. The husband's ruling in this matter is a subsidiary of the ruling on her study. If her study is permissible and does not miss a higher interest, then there is no blame on him. Otherwise, he is accountable for it before Allah Almighty.
