Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Is it obligatory for all married people to learn the issues of divorce, even if they are from the common people?
Answer:
No, it is not obligatory for them. What is obligatory for them are the matters of their religion: tawhid (the oneness of Allah), prayer, zakah (the obligatory alms), fasting, and Hajj (the major pilgrimage); the conditions of Islam and the pillars of Islam. As for the rulings of transactions, marriages, and divorce, this is a collective obligation (fard kifayah). However, if one does not know, he should ask the scholars; if he does not know, he should ask the people of knowledge.
