I forbade my husband from going with friends to the beach.

Question

I forbade my husband from going with friends to the beach. He is upset with me. Am I in error?

Answer

You were right for forbidding your husband from going to the beach with friends. Going to the beach with friends is a perfect recipe for shaitaaniyat and nafsaaniyat. A husband's friends are his wife and children. In his free time he must remain at home and spend time with his family. It is not permissible to go off with friends.

All of them are bereft of Taqwa. They become involved in many haraam activities when they are together. Married men should be ashamed of themselves for neglecting their families and squandering the time with friends. Their haraam indulgences are not secrets. Too many marriages are miserable because of the neglect of husbands. Wives by the score complain about the haraam phone addiction of their husbands. They squander hours looking at haraam and filth on their phones whilst neglecting their wives and children. They will have to answer to Allah Ta'ala for neglecting their wives and children.

Husbands should understand that it is the Waajib right of the wife to have her husband at home from Maghrib. It is not permissible for them to go off with ‗friends' during the time which Allah Ta'ala has allocated for wives.

Musjid Nabawi in groups for Iftaar. This does not happen in Makkah. Is it permissible?

A. When it is not permissible for these women to be even inside the Musjid for Salaat, how can it ever be permissible for them to sit in groups outside the Musjid eating like dogs and labelling their stunt as ‗iftaar'? They are lewd women who resort to such tricks and stunts to give expression to their nafsaaniyat.
