Wife

A wife is a female partner in a continuing marital relationship.
The term continues to be applied to a woman who has separated from her partner, and ceases to be applied to such a woman only when her marriage has come to an end, following a legally recognized divorce or the death of her spouse. On the death of her partner, a wife is referred to as a widow, but not after she is divorced from her partner.

Hadith . Man . Wife . Sexual . Meaning

Is there a Hadith from Imam al-Sadiq (a) that states that a man should not engage in sexual relations with his wife while naked? If so, does this imply that only the man must be clothed, or does it mean that both partners should not be naked?

Bismihi ta'ala

There are narrations that do mention some of these things, but most of our esteemed scholars do not mention it as one of the makruh acts during intimacy, meaning that they might not hold that level of authenticity.

You must refer to your Marja' taqleed on this, but whatever the case is, it is not haram, nor even firmly established as 'makruh'.

Husband . Wife . Obedience . Fard

If a husband requests his wife to wash his clothes, which is within her ability, is she obligated to comply? If he supports her and asks her to perform household chores, does that make it compulsory for her to obey in such Halal and feasible matters?

If there was an understanding between them that he spends on her more than the basic needs of food and clothes and shelter and she looks after the household matters, such understanding makes it compulsory on both of them to full fil that mutual understanding. Some people say that wife has no responsibility at all at home more than matrimonial matters for her husband, but many scholars say that the understood agreement on her responsibilities at home matters and must be obliged.

Wife . Marriage . Polygamy

Is it a requirement in Islam for the first wife to give consent for the husband to marry a second wife?

If by giving consent, her sister is saved from sin and poverty and staying single and not becoming a mother, then what a Mustahab act can you find better than sharing your husband with her?
have a look a these narrations:
بإسناده عن عليّ عليه السلام قال قال رسول اللّه صلّى اللّه عليه و آله كتب اللّه الجهاد على رجال أُمّتى، والغيرة
على نساء أُمّتى، فمن صبرت منهنّ واحتسبت أعطاها اللّه أجر شهيد

"On the authority of Ali (peace be upon him), he said that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and his family) said: Allah has prescribed jihad for the men of my nation, and Ghayrat(jealousy about having a co-wife) for the women of my nation. So whoever among them is patient and endures with the intention of seeking reward, Allah will grant her the reward of a martyr.
العدة ، عن البرقي ، عن محمد بن الحسن ، عن يوسف بن حماد ، عمن ذكره ، عن جابر قال: قال أبو جعفر عليه السّلام : "غيرة النساء الحسد و الحسد هو أصل الكفر إن النساء إذا غرن غضبن و إذا غضبن كفرن إلا المسلمات منهن".
The jealousy of women is envy, and envy is the root of disbelief. When women become jealous, they become angry, and when they become angry, they disbelieve, except for the believing women among them."

Of course everyone should know that it's not obligatory for you to give consent and it's better that men understand their wives' emotions and as long as the first wife has not fully given her consent they don't go for the second. because they should not ruin the first life for helping another sister.
All said above are recommendations and not obligations

Wife . Sexual . Sin

Is anal sex considered sinful in Islam, and would it displease Allah, even if the wife does not express any discomfort?

Bismihi ta'ala

The common view among our esteeemed scholars is that such an act is highly detestable (very makruh) and should not be performed. Some consider it haram, and some precautionary haram. It is indeed something that believers should refrain from, and expressing discomfort is irrelevant as well.

You must refer to your Marja' taqleed for his specific view.

And Allah knows best.

Wife . Jinn . Satan

Does Iblis have a spouse? What is the method of reproduction for Iblis and the Jinn from his tribe?

In Quran we read in Sura Al-Kahn, verse 50: Do you take Shaitan and his offspring’s friends rather than Me? This means that Iblus has offspring. Iblis is from the Jinn who have males and females among them. There are narrations in Sunni and Shia books about Shaitan’s homo way of reproduction but we can not confirm the degree of the authenticity of those narrations.

If a couple has not engaged in vaginal intercourse, only oral sex, does the husband need to wait until the wife's next menstrual cycle concludes before proceeding with a divorce?
