11213 - حكم طاعة الزوجة لزوجها بعد العقد وهي ما زالت في بيت والدها - نور على الدرب

The speaker addresses whether a husband has the right to control his wife's actions before she moves into his home, specifically when she is still living with her parents after the marriage contract. The Sheikh clarifies that as long as the wife remains in her parents' home, she is under their authority, not her husband's. Her parents are responsible for her affairs, and the husband does not have the right to dictate her actions, such as asking for permission to go out or preventing her from leaving.

The only established right the husband has at this stage is that she is legally his wife and cannot marry anyone else. The marriage is valid, and he is her husband. However, until she transitions to live with him, her daily life and decisions remain under the purview of her parents. She is advised to fear God and avoid forbidden acts, but the husband's full marital authority, including control over her movement, begins only after she moves into his house.
