Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
His third question says: If a woman requests divorce from her husband and he refuses, what should be done?
Answer:
If she requests divorce for legitimate religious reasons, he should not refuse. He should fear Allah and ask for her mahr, which is his right. If she refuses to give him his right, she has no right to divorce; she must give him his full right. If he refuses, they should go to the court, and it will look into the matter.
