The maintenance of a wife who left her home without her husband's knowledge
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Shaykh, my question is simple, but I came home and my wife was not in the house. She left her home without my knowledge, from Riyadh to Makkah. Does she have a right to maintenance, or does her son? Because I am now filing a divorce case against her.
Answer:
By Allah, my brother, this is a case that requires going to the judge. He must look into it and tell you what is obligatory, because this is a claim against her. You must ask her in your presence, and the judge will look into who of the two of you is in the right. Yes.
