Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A man says: I married a woman in a customary marriage, then her family found out about it and threatened him, and he divorced her with one divorce. She has given birth to a son from him. What is the ruling on this marriage, and does she have the right to be taken back?
Answer:
Should he not refer the matter to the Shari'ah court? They will look into the issue and see what happened and what took place, and the judge will give the Shari'ah ruling, if Allah wills.
