Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A questioner says: If a woman asks her husband for a divorce and he refuses, what should be done?
Answer:
If she asks for a divorce for legitimate Shari'ah reasons, he should not refuse. He should fear Allah and give her her mahr, which is her right.
If she refuses to give him his right, she has no right to a divorce. She must give him his full right. If he refuses, they should go to the court, and it will look into the matter.
