Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And I entered upon her, and after a week she said, "I do not want you," and that was without any reason, and she requested fisq (open sinfulness) or khul' (divorce at the wife's request for compensation). The question is: Is it my right to take sixty-five thousand, given that the mahr (bridal gift) included fifteen thousand as an advance and fifty thousand as deferred? I have only paid fifteen thousand.
Answer:
By Allah, this is with the judge; they refer it to the judge. Yes.
