  • Can A Wife Demand For Children

    Posted by Syed Ahmad on September 15, 2024 at 7:16 am

    Can a wife demand for children after if husband doesn’t want to have with her to avoid family conflicts and consequences could take place as a result because he already has children from x-wife/ first wife and married her after being divorced.

    Does it become wife’s right which she can claim from husband in the light of Islam or it depends on individuals?

    In Islam, the issue of having children is considered a mutual right and responsibility between husband and wife. The desire to have children and the decision to do so should ideally be discussed and agreed upon by both partners.
    However, if a husband has already had children from a previous marriage and is reluctant to have more children with his current wife, the situation can become complex. The wife does have the right to discuss her desires and concerns with her husband, and both should seek to reach a mutual understanding.
    Islamic scholars suggest that if a wife wishes to have children and her husband is unwilling, it could be a valid concern that might be addressed through counseling or mediation. The situation might also be influenced by the specific circumstances of the marriage, such as family conflicts and the husband’s previous responsibilities.
    Ultimately, while there is no explicit Islamic ruling that mandates a husband to have more children if he already has children from a previous marriage, the principle of mutual consultation and respect is emphasized. Both partners should strive to communicate openly and work towards a solution that respects their rights and responsibilities. If needed, seeking advice from a knowledgeable Islamic scholar or counselor can provide guidance tailored to the specific situation.
