Assalaam alaikum,
What does age have to do with sex...I did not realize that one stopped having sex due to age..new one on me...just look in the Quran...
Sister Precious Star...what I am trying to discuss can simply be put like this; if a wife has a medical or mental condition that stops her from pleasing her husband and his daily needs ( it took a moment to get that out)..it is his right to 1) divorce her 2) take on a second wife ( now you all know I was going to pop that one in) and 3) keep her out of his sense of mercy. I was not even thinking of annulment as that is simply odious.
So to turn the question around..the wife if she has a medical condition..what is her obligation to her husband? I believe we have an answer to this question.
Sister Hayat..take time to ingest what I am asking. The response from Brother Mazhara really made me think. He corrected me. A husband has intercourse with his wife(wives). Not the other way around...think it out sister.
Age has nothing to do with sex?
1. Not too mant children are having sex.
2. There are many many elderly folks who no longer have sex. Could be lack of desire, impotance, lack of physical stamina, etc. But your comment "that's a new one".....um, really? Ask some 80 year olds.
I am having a lot of trouble with this scenario. This woman is ill. Ok so her husband isnt getting satisfied but she is ILL. What is her obligation to her husband ? Why arent we asking what is her husbands obligation to her? Is he reassuring her that he will take care of her? That he will continue to love her? That he will continue to satisfy her needs?
