The Expiation for Zihar by a Woman
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Umm Sa'd from al-Kharj says: Is there an expiation for zihar (likening one's wife to a forbidden relative) for a wife if she says to her husband, "You are like my father or my brother"? We have heard from those who issued a ruling to that effect.
Answer:
Yes, this is the position of the Hanbali school: if a woman commits zihar with her husband, she owes the expiation for an oath, not the expiation for zihar. The expiation for zihar is specific to the husband. Yes.
