Explanation of the Hadith: The Most Hated of What Is Lawful to Allah Is Divorce

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks, may Allah bless you: Explain the hadith of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him): “The most hated of what is lawful to Allah is divorce.” Is it a hadith or an athar? And what is its meaning?

Answer:
A hadith is narrated from the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) that
The most hated of permissible things to Allah is divorce.أبغض الحلال إلى الله الطلاق
Sunan Ibn Majah 2018Sahih (Darussalam)
. This indicates that divorce without a reason or without a valid cause is disliked, because it involves the separation of the family, and it also has an impact on the offspring, especially the young ones, who suffer some hardship and distress from the separation of their parents or one of them. Therefore, divorce is hateful to Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). It is only to be done when there is a need. Divorce when there is a need is from the mercy of Allah (Mighty and Majestic). But when there is no need, it is not permissible. Yes.
