Q 5:
A woman's husband is an alcoholic. She cannot stand the sight of him when he is drunk, or be near him when he wants to have sexual relations with her. Is she allowed to do refuse, or will she bear the sin of abandoning her husband's bed? Will she incur the curse of angels upon herself as reported in the Hadith?
(Part No. 22; Page No. 206) A: If the reality is as she mentioned, she is permitted to reject him and will not bear any sin for doing so. However, she must first advise him. If he gives up this sinful act, it will be a good on his part. But if he persists in his sin, she may request a divorce lest she should fall into sin. If he refuses to divorce her, she may file a lawsuit against him.
May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
