The answer

It is forbidden for a Muslim to prohibit for himself that which Allah has made lawful. It is also impermissible to describe conjugal relations between spouses as something negative, for Allah has made it lawful for prophets and messengers. The condition stipulated by the wife or her guardian to the husband that he should not have intercourse with her is null and void, as it contradicts the purpose of the marriage contract. Scholars have differed on whether the contract is valid and the condition void, or if the entire contract is void from its origin. Therefore, it is not permissible to agree to this condition, and the woman must repent from it.
