Question:

Asalamu alaikom I had converted to Islam for some years now ,Allhumdulilah. I live with my daughter and letter I got married with my husband and it is almost 3 years now and he do not tell his parent and he do not want to have children with me.i want to know about my right in this and this is halam or no what he doing. wasalam

Answer:

All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad  sallallaahu  `alayhi  wa  sallam ( may  Allaah exalt his mention ) is His slave and Messenger.

 

First of all, all perfect praise be to Allaah, Who guided you to Islam and we ask Him to make you firm and steadfast on His Religion until the day you meet Him.

As regards your first question, if the husband does not inform his family about his marriage, then this does not affect the validity of his marriage, and there is no difference of opinion among the scholars  may  Allaah  have  mercy  upon  them about this. However, it is more appropriate for him to inform them as a sign of being kind and dutiful to his parents and keeping a good relationship with other relatives.

With regard to the second question, we have already issued Fatwa 87397 clarifying that the husband does not have the right to prevent his wife from having children without a sound reason, so please refer to the above referred Fatwa. 

Allaah Knows best.
