Question
Assalamu Aleikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu dear Mufti. Please answer my question: is it permissible to make nikah but live for some time (6 months, 1 year) separately but have intercourse? Jazakallahhair
Answer
If the Nikah was performed correctly, it will be valid.
The husband and wife may mutually agree on living jointly or separately for a specific time period.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
