Guidance for One Who Frequently Swears by Divorce
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Umm Tariq from Jeddah says: My husband swears a lot by divorce, and he always repeats this word at the slightest thing that may not please him. What is your guidance?
Answer:
It is not permissible for him to do that. He must not play with divorce, nor utter it except when there is a need. Divorce is a serious word; perhaps he will end up living with a wife who is not lawful for him because of the divorce. This is a great danger. So the Muslim must restrain his tongue from uttering divorce, except when there is a need for it. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you,
