How should a woman act if her husband has intercourse with her while imagining her to be another woman, and asks her to share this fantasy, or forces her to describe women she knows so that he can have intercourse with her as if they were those women, knowing that she goes along with him by giving inaccurate descriptions and fearing the unlawful for him and for her, especially since he is a religious man who refuses to discuss the matter after intercourse?

If a husband asks his wife to describe other women, she is not permitted to obey him, for Islamic law has forbidden this, based on the Prophet's (peace be upon him) saying: "A woman should not touch another woman and then describe her to her husband, as if he were looking at her." It is also impermissible for a man to have intercourse with his wife while imagining a specific foreign woman. This behavior is abnormal and deviates from natural human disposition (fitra). The husband is advised to contact the counseling department to overcome this behavior.
