The ruling on a wife requesting divorce for the slightest reason

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, some wives leave their husbands for the smallest problem. What is the ruling on that?

Answer:
She should not do that; it is not permissible for her to do so. Any woman who requests divorce without a valid reason is forbidden the scent of Paradise, and it is a severe warning. It is not permissible for a woman to request divorce without a valid reason from her husband. However, if there is a reason for her request, a valid reason, then there is no harm. Yes.
