Rather, they permit woman to work as they permit man, though some texts address and urge man to work. The Work of a Wife Islamic law has limited precepts concerning the work of a wife as follows: The wife has the right to stipulate in her marriage contract that her husband should not prevent her from working. The husband must agree to let his wife work through mutual understanding. That is when she wants to work without a previous stipulation. Sometimes the husband disagrees to let his wife work.

This does not mean that Islamic law prevents her from working. However, that depends on the relationship between the husband and his wife. If a woman had worked before the marriage contract, a work contract is valid, even though work opposes her husband's right. When the wife works without permission from her husband, the correctness of permission depends on the approval of the husband in what contradicts the rights of husband. The contract is valid in what does not contradict his right. 5.
