Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This is a woman asking, and she says: Is it prescribed for a woman to request khul' (divorce at the wife's request for compensation) from her husband because he married another woman? Is that permissible for her according to the Shari'ah?
Answer:
It is not permissible for her to do so. Allah has made it lawful for him; Allah has allowed him plural marriage. Therefore, it is not permissible for her to request separation if he marries another woman. Yes.
