Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: We learned last night the ruling on the muhallil and that he is cursed, but there are women who have been divorced three times who, if they marry a man, cause him many problems until he divorces her, so she returns to her first husband. Is this action like the muhallil?
Answer:
This is forbidden for her, and it is not permissible for her to do so, because he is her husband. If he divorces her willingly, there is no harm. But if she pressures him into divorcing her, that is not permissible for her. This is nushuz (marital defiance). Yes, this is nushuz.
