The wording of divorce when khul' is intended
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A man wanted to divorce his wife through khul' (divorce at the wife's request for compensation). When he wanted to do so, he said, "You are divorced" or "I have divorced you," and he did not say to her, "I have divorced you through khul'." Is the question like this?
The Shaykh:
It is sufficient that he said, "I have divorced you." It is sufficient that he said, "I have divorced you." Yes.
The questioner:
He says: Is it considered a divorce or a khul'? And is it permissible for him?
The Shaykh:
He uttered the words of divorce, and it is not considered a khul'. What he uttered is considered, and that is the divorce. Yes.
