The Middle East Media Research Institute 03/22/2005 Saudi Sheik: "A Wife Needs to Comply with Her Husband's Desires in Bed" Following is an excerpt from an interview with Sheik Muhammad Al-Munajid. Iqra TV aired this interview on March 22, 2005.
Sheik Muhammad Al-Munajid: According to Islam, a wife needs to comply with her husband's desires in bed. The Prophet Muhammad said: "If a man calls his wife to fulfill his needs, she must come, even if she is by the stove," according to the Al-Tarmizi tradition. They issued a severe warning against to any wife who rebels against her husband in bed. The Prophet said: "If a man invites his wife to bed and she refuses, and he is angry at her, the angels curse her until she wakes up in the morning." This tradition was mentioned in the collections of Al-Bukhari and Al-Muslim. God is aware of men's needs. He knows that a man may have just come home, and maybe he desires something or maybe he saw something. He knows what this need is, and this is why he ordered the wife to consent to her husband, even if she is by the stove. Even if she is baking she must consent to him. Moreover, the Prophet Muhammad said to the woman: "Compare yourself to him, he's your paradise and your hell." Imam Ahmad passed this on in his true Hadith. The wife must consent to her husband's wishes and obey him.
The wife in the West is not obligated to do so. Moreover, a wife can be raped by her husband there. They claim that if he has sex with her against her will - this is rape! They consider this rape. They claim she must be willing. They claim that she must want it. There is a disagreement in the West on this issue. Some do give the husband the right to whatever he wants, but in many other cases they don't. Therefore, the wife doesn't submit to the man whenever he wants.
1 Corinthians 7:5
Do not deprive each other except by mutual consent and for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer. Then come together again so that Satan will not tempt you because of your lack of self-control.
Paul is talking to both men and women here although most men would say they don't need this, LOL
The point being that part of marriage is to fulfill each other sexually.
Women who love the Lord and their husbands "submit" so to speak
HOWEVER the Word also saids for men to;
Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her
Ephesians 5:25
Which implies a sensitivity to her feelings, and occasional circumstances
Bottom line, in marriage sex should be a win, win situation for both husband and wife
Big feet?

As far as this post goes..... a friend and I were talking about this very topic the other day. The Bible is CLEAR......and we should rejoice in those things God has instructed.... It only brings happiness and clarity to the relationship. Right? ;)
Very strange site. I got some cult vibes from it, mainly because of the graphics and the vague manner in which it is written. There's a lot of talk about submission and instruction, but not many details on what is expected. It may well be innocuous, but it strikes me as creepy.
I agree, there is something very strange, sort of cult-like and/or/including New Age about the site
And its defintely not a Biblically based site, which they state in the small print of their home page;
"the instruction described in this site is by no means church-related. It is not for those who wish for Biblically based guidance nor for those who are offended by overt sexuality and intrusive discipline."
I hear ya, Sister... I HEAR you! and ditto!
