Q4: What is the ruling regarding a girl whose father gave her in marriage to a man she did not love, and he took her to his home where she stayed for three years, but she did not consent to intercourse with him, and finally the man accepted her and left her and divorced her? Does she have to observe the waiting period for divorce?
A4: If the situation is as described, and the divorce occurred after he had intercourse with her, then she must observe the waiting period for divorce. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
