Is it permissible for a woman to test her husband by exposing him to the temptation of women?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

If a woman tests her husband by offering him another woman to be alone with her, or by having a woman enter upon him unveiled, this is a reprehensible act and is impermissible. However, if she offers him marriage to another woman, there is no objection. In any case, it is not permissible for a wife or anyone else to expose a man to the temptation of women. Islamic law has forbidden a woman from describing another woman to her husband, as the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "No woman should intimately associate with another woman and then describe her to her husband as if he is looking at her."
