Mu' meneen Brothers and Sisters,

As Salaam Aleikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh.  (May Allah's Peace, Mercy and Blessings be upon all of you)

One of our brothers/sisters has asked this question:

ASSALAMU ALAIKUM,

IS IT PERMISSABLE IN ISLAM TO CHAT IN INTERNET WITH WIFE IF A HUSBAND IS WORKING IN GULF AND SHE IS IN INDIA. WHAT IS LIMIT OF EXCHANGING OF WORDS IN CHATTING, IF IT IS PERMISSABLE. CAN BOTH EXCHANGE SOME SEXUAL WORDS AND FEELINGS ALSO.

THANK YOU, WASSALAM. 

(There may be some grammatical and spelling errors in the above statement. The forum does not change anything from questions, comments and statements received from our readers for circulation in confidentiality.)

Answer:

Sex chat between husband wife

In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright. We bear witness that there is no one (no idol, no person, no grave, no prophet, no imam, no dai, nobody!) worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear witness that Muhammad(saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His Messengers.

There is absolutely no veil or ‘hijaab’ between a husband and wife in Islam! They may talk whatever they wish, in person, or in letters, or on the phone, or on the internet, or wherever else they feel comfortable. It is absolutely permissible to enjoy each others company, whether they are near or far. There is absolutely no restriction if they exchange as many sexual words and feelings between each other over any medium of communication they wish to do so!

Whatever written of Truth and benefit is only due to Allah’s Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error is of me. Allah Alone Knows Best and He is the Only Source of Strength.

Your Brother in Islam,

Burhan
