Some guardians impose as a condition on their daughters' husbands at the time of the marriage contract that they must allow their wives to continue education and work after graduation. Is this condition permissible? And what is the ruling if it is not implemented after marriage? A – Any condition imposed upon the husband to which he agreed – as long as it is not forbidden in the Islamic Law – is an obligation upon him. That is, he is obliged to implement it, according to the words of the Prophet: Verily the condition having most right to be fulfilled is one by which you make the private parts (of the spouse) permissible. (Al-Bukhari and Muslim) But the wife and her family should not impose conditions such as the one mentioned in the question. Instead, they should leave the matter to be agreed upon by the husband and wife after the contract. It is well-known that a man marries a woman in order to be a wife who brings up children and to improve his living conditions, not to be a worker whom he only sees sometimes. Therefore, refraining from imposing such conditions is more fitting and preferable. – Sheikh Muhammad Bin Saleh Al-Uthaymeen; Fatawa Islamiyah, vol. 5, pg. 262 Masturbation Q- What is the ruling regarding masturbation? What if one masturbates with some other object and not his hand? A – Masturbation whether it is with the hand or with some other object that is shaped as the private part is unlawful. Every Muslim should beware of this habit, because practicing it goes contrary to the following verse: “...And those who guard their chastity. Except from their wives or (the slaves) that their right hand possess, for then, they are free from blame. But whoever seeks beyond that, then those are the transgressors.” (Qur'an, 23:5-7) Moreover, masturbation is damaging to ones health. – Sheikh Abdul Aziz Bin Baz; Fatawa Islamiyah, vol. 8, pg. 300 __
