Justice Between Wives During Postpartum Period
A person has two wives, and the second wife is in the postpartum period after giving birth at her parents' house. During this time, the husband is with the first wife. When the postpartum period ends, the second wife stipulated that in order to return to her husband's house, he must compensate for the days he spent with the first wife by staying with her for the same duration. Is this condition permissible?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: She does not have the right to compensation for the days she spent with her family unless the husband initially told her that, and God knows best.
