Spending the night with another wife in the absence of the wife who’s turn it is

Q: Can a man spend the night with his other wife if the wife who’s turn it is, is not there even though she did not give him permission to spend the night with his other wife?

A: A man should be just towards both his wives. However if the wife whose turn it is, is not present (e.g. she is gone out on safr with her parents) then since she is not present, it will be permissible for the husband to spend that time with the other wife.

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

( ولو أقام عند واحدة شهرا في غير سفر ثم خاصمته الأخرى ) في ذلك ( يؤمر بالعدل بينهما في المستقبل وهدر ما مضى وإن أثم به ) لأن القسمة تكون بعد الطلب … ( والبكر والثيب والجديدة والقديمة والمسلمة والكتابية سواء ) لإطلاق الآية (الدر المختار 3/205)

Random Q&A

I am working in a Multi National Company in Northern Part of India. We, Muslims, are very less in this company. For last six months, we have been offering congregational prayers of Dhuhr, Asr & Maghrib in the canteen area. We are not using anything that belongs to the company, except water for Wudu. My boss called me last week and told that he had received complaints from some people as to people are wasting their work time in offering Namaz. He asked about the suggestions from me. I spoke to the fellow Muslims and came to the solution that we would not take break time which is permissible for 40 minutes, to compensate the Namaz time. When I suggested this to my boss, he told me that people have objections on this too; their main objection is as to why people offer Namaz in Company premises. This issue is still unsolved. We are offering Namaz as usual. Kindly tell us what is the best solution? We can leave the job immediately if our company restricts us from offering Namaz.
