Understanding the needs of the wife

· 21 Safar 1435 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

Is it permissible for a women to masturbate if she doesn't get full satisfaction after intercourse with her husband? If not she has to wait a minimum of three days. How does she control herself?

If the wife needs to have intercourse maybe every third night and the husband says that's too frequent, also at rare times the wife needs the husband sooner. How should she fulfil her need? Because this leads to masturbation.

If a women has a dream where she is sexually aroused and satisfied. Upon awakening there is no wetness. Is ghusl fardh?

Answer

The husband should understand and do this if there is a need.

The wife could turn her mind into other work and she will see that the need is not so great.

No.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
