Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question : This is a questioner, Umm Hanan, who says: If a woman asks for a divorce from her husband who never prays except on Friday only, what is the ruling on her remaining with him? Knowing that there is no one to support her other than him, I ask the Honorable Shaykh for an answer, may Allah reward him with good.
Answer : We tell her: No, do not remain with this man, because he is a disbeliever according to some scholars, since he does not pray except on Friday. It is obligatory for her to separate from him. And Allah the Exalted said:[An-Nisa 4:130] The provision that comes to her from her husband is originally from Allah, but Allah has placed it in the hands of her husband. If her husband separates from her, Allah will provide for her a way out and a solution, especially since she separated from him on a valid legal basis. Yes.
Answer : We tell her: No, do not remain with this man, because he is a disbeliever according to some scholars, since he does not pray except on Friday. It is obligatory for her to separate from him. And Allah the Exalted said:
But if they separate [by divorce], Allah will enrich each [of them] from His abundance
وَإِن يَتَفَرَّقَا يُغْنِ اللَّهُ كُلًّا مِّن سَعَتِهِ
