Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: When marital cohabitation becomes impossible between the husband and wife, and all means of reconciliation have been exhausted by both parties, but reconciliation has not been achieved due to the increase and continuation of the problems, which has affected the children and worsened the wife's mental state, and she has requested a divorce, but the husband has left her in a suspended state without pronouncing the divorce, does she have the right to request a divorce?
Answer:
Yes, if the cohabitation between the husband and wife becomes difficult or impossible, Allah the Exalted said:[An-Nisa 4:130], so she has the right to demand a divorce if her remaining with him does not achieve the purpose of marriage. In that case, she requests the divorce to remove the hardship and difficulty from her. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you and bless you.

But if they separate [by divorce], Allah will enrich each [of them] from His abundance. And ever is Allah Encompassing and Wise.
