If he says, “If you exchange a dinar from your dirhams, that is the last thing between you and me”
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The third question of Fatwa No. ( 18020 )
Q3: A woman works outside her home, and her husband said to her: “If you exchange a dinar from your dirhams, that is the last thing between you and me.” If she exchanges it, is she considered divorced from him?
A3: The husband’s statement to his wife: “If you do such-and-such, that is the last thing between me and you” — this statement is an indirect expression of divorce. If his intention was to effect the divorce, then one divorce takes place if she does the condition upon which it was contingent. However, if his intention was to frighten her and prevent her, and he did not intend to effect the divorce, then he owes an expiation for an oath if she does what he forbade her from doing, and no divorce takes place according to the more correct of the two opinions of the scholars. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
