The ruling on a wife leaving without her husband's permission while assuming he has given permission
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
This questioner says: If the husband does not give his wife permission to go out, and she goes out thinking he has given her permission, does the divorce take effect?
The Shaykh:
If the divorce is made conditional on her going out, and she goes out, the divorce takes effect on his part. Even if she did not know that he had divorced her, the divorce occurs because the condition was fulfilled. Whether she was unaware of it, forgot it, or was ignorant of it, that has no bearing on the divorce not taking effect. Yes.
The presenter:
The time is up.
The Shaykh:
Allah the Exalted knows best, and may Allah send blessings and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad.
