Is it permissible for a woman to request a divorce if she dislikes her husband?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: My sister got married and stayed with her husband for about two months, but she could not bear him. Does my sister, or a woman in general, have the right to request a divorce if she does not love this man?

Answer:
Perhaps Allah will remove the dislike from her heart. She does not know; perhaps Allah will bring about something after that. If she sees that her hatred for this man persists and that she is not compatible with him, she may request a divorce. Yes.
