Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah (may Allah have mercy on him) was asked about a man who is able to stay away from his wife for one or two months, and does not have intercourse with her: is there any sin on him or not? Is the husband required to do that?

He replied:

It is obligatory for the man to have intercourse with his wife on a reasonable basis, and this is one of the most important rights that she has over him; it is more important than feeding her.

With regard to obligatory intercourse, according to one view, it is obligatory (at least) once every four months; according to another view, it should be according to her need and his ability, just as he should feed her according to her need and his ability.

The latter is the more correct of the two opinions.

End quote from Majmoo‘ al-Fataawa (32/271).

The scholars of the Standing Committee said:

If a man shuns his wife for more than three months, if that is because of defiant disobedience on her part, i.e., the wife is disobeying her husband with regard to marital rights that are obligatory upon her, and she has persisted in that after he has admonished her and reminded her to fear Allah, may He be exalted, and he has reminded her of her obligatory duties towards her husband, then he may forsake her in bed for as long as he wants, so as to discipline her until she willingly fulfils her husband’s rights.

But with regard to the husband forsaking his wife in bed for more than four months, so as to cause her harm without any shortcoming on her part with regard to her husband’s rights, then in this case he is like one who swore an oath (called eela’) not to have sexual relations with his wife (see al-Baqarah 2:226), even if he did not actually swear an oath to that effect.

He is to be given a deadline equal to the time of eela’ (which is four months), then when four months have passed, if he does not come back to his wife and have intercourse with her in the vagina, when he is able to do so, if she is not menstruating or bleeding following childbirth, then he is to be ordered to issue a divorce.

If he refuses to go back to his wife and he refuses to issue a divorce, then the qaadi may issue a ruling of divorce or annul the marriage, if the wife requests that.

Then what about the Islamists that follow the religion? Are they perfect follower of the religion too?

Some of us commit sins without even knowing it

May Allah guides us and forgives our shortcomings.

I am proud to be a Muslim haters should kiss my ass

Trust is, Islam as a religion is perfect, but same can not be said of Muslims, and this is so bcuz we’re just but humans…..so when a Muslim does something wrong, blame it on him not the religion

Religion in its entirety is a scam. The only people who take religion seriously are fools.

It's not food abeg. Performing obligation and littering the community with future terrorists, bandits or almagiri.

I propose castration for irresponsible men with more that two children.

It is obvious you are trespassing and you lied just like pastors to make comments on this thread because there's a restriction on this particular thread.
We know the beauty of Islam so we care less of your dirty, unstructured doctrines but you people always create aggression to taint a perfect religion.
Go and check and think why Europeans are reverting to ISLAM and mosque springing up all over. Your shallowed and myopia orientation won't let you.

So if you had replied on Friday, Nairaland would have been your worship place isn’t it? Which is why you chose to reply on Sunday. Hypocrite!

It is obviously your generation who was misled to believe there are 7 virgins waiting for them after KILLING someone.
