Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What is the maintenance of the divorced woman? Is it due to my wife? And how is it estimated?

Answer:
It is recommended for you to give her a gift; because of the saying of Allah the Exalted:
And for divorced women is a provision according to what is acceptable - a duty upon the righteous.وَلِلْمُطَلَّقَاتِ مَتَاعٌ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ حَقًّا عَلَى الْمُتَّقِينَ
[Surat al-Baqarah:241] It is recommended for you to give her a gift from whatever wealth is easy for you: such as clothing or money, and there is no fixed limit to it, but rather what Allah makes easy, yes.

The presenter: May Allah reward you with good.
