The questioner:
One of the sisters says: I have had problems with my husband for years, and he has not fulfilled my legal rights since then. Is it permissible for me to ask him for a divorce?
The Shaykh:
Yes, demand your right. You have a right to demand your right. The wife has a right over her husband; you have the right to claim your right. Yes.
The questioner:
And if he does not respond.
The Shaykh:
If he does not respond, then complain about him to the judge. Yes.
The presenter:
Yes, may Allah bless you.
