Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is a woman whose husband contracted marriage with her, and then it became clear that there is something in his organ regarding cancerous cells. So she started talking and expressing pessimism. Is it permissible for her to ask him for divorce? And is this considered pessimism?
Answer:
No, it is not pessimism. This is a matter of precaution. If she asks for divorce, there is no harm. If it is established that it is cancer or something similar, it is a valid legal excuse. This is not pessimism; this is avoiding danger.
Q: He treated himself and recovered?
The Shaykh: If he recovered, praise be to Allah.
The student: But she is still demanding divorce from him?
The Shaykh: No, she should not demand it.
