Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, according to the second opinion, if he divorces her before he goes to her, he does not complete her mahr. In that case, what is her waiting period?
The Shaykh:
Yes.
The questioner:
He says: According to the second opinion, if he divorces her before he consummates the marriage with her, he does not pay her the full mahr. In that case, what is her waiting period?
The Shaykh:
Her waiting period is due to the seclusion; because it is possible that he consummated the marriage. As for the money, it is not obligatory except with certainty of intercourse; because it is a consideration. As for the waiting period, it is obligatory even with the possibility. So the matter of the waiting period is more cautious and stricter.
