The questioner:
May Allah reward you. This questioner asks: Is the husband who has exhausted his efforts to bring his second wife in...
The Shaykh:
Is it?
The questioner:
Is the husband who has exhausted his efforts to use his second wife, but it became impossible because the regulations do not allow it?
The Shaykh:
This is what he is asking about.
The questioner:
He means that he married her without the state's permission from abroad.
The Shaykh:
Yes, and what?
The questioner:
And he was unable to annul it because the regulations do not allow him to.
The Shaykh:
That means her rights are dropped from him. She is abroad and he was unable to bring her in, and time has passed while she is abroad. He is excused because he did not leave her by his own choice, but rather he left her because of the obstacle of the regulations. He is excused.
