The Expiation for the Statement "I Divorce" if One Breaks the Oath
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Your Eminence, the father. The questioner says: If a person says, "I divorce," is the expiation for breaking that oath the expiation for a broken oath, or does it result in the divorce of his wife?
Answer:
This goes to the court. Regarding issues of divorce, I have told you how many times not to bring them to us. This is a place for lessons, not for divorce. It goes to the Sharia court, or else it goes to the Department of Ifta, and he submits his question there.
