Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it permissible for a mother to leave the custody of her children with the father in order to marry another man, if she knows that the father is harsh in raising his children?

Answer:
If the father is harsh, she may not leave the child except if she contracts the marriage. If she contracts the marriage with a non-mahram, her custody is dropped. But before the contract, she may not.
