Yes, he does have the right to choose his career, however you should take into consideration the advice and reasoning of your parents too. But at the end of the day, the decision is yours.

What is the position on aborting a foetus given that early testing has shown the foetus has foetal abnormalities and that there is a high chance of chromosomal disease setting in.

Salam alaikum I have been married for 8 years and we have 3 children. My wife is also pregnant. Sheikh she has had a bad weight problem for some time now and I feel she is not disciplined in looking after her health. She is very untidy and we tend to disagree about many things regarding life and Islam. I’m sorry but I don’t feel attracted to her anymore. I have mentioned that we should separate or I would take another wife. I am being selfish and unjust. Chukran.

Assalamu alikum,Is it permissible for a husband to be possessive about his wife ?If yes, how far he can do that ? Is there any limit as it may lead to some other problem in relationship like suspicion, spying etc ? For example, due to financial crisis husband allowed her wife to work. But sometimes husband react to his wife due to her interaction with malecolleague. Her point is as she is working, it may happens sometimes and she is trying her best to avoid such interaction. Now she is blaming her husband as a suspicious guy, she termed it ” excessive possessiveness “. She is about to leave her job, it was for a short timeand she is asking her husband to have trust on her. So is it ” excessive possessiveness ” from husband ?
