khula

It is an agreement between the husband and wife to terminate the marriage, in return for the wife’s payment to liberate the marriage contract, and this liberation may be by the woman giving up part of the dowry or all of the dowry that they agreed upon at the beginning of the marriage contract. Although the law of Islam made divorce in the hands of the man alone, but it opened many avenues for the woman who is oppressed or who cannot bear to live with her husband to be freed from the marriage covenant, and to start another life with another husband, and among these ways is the ruling (khul’) which was approved by Islamic Sharia and made it a means of relief. About the wife who wants to be saved from a life of misery with her husband, by giving him some of her material rights in exchange for divorce, and this is what the Prophet did with the wife of the companion Thabet bin Shammas when she came to him complaining to him of her misery with her husband who does not love him and that she lives with him under compulsion, so he ordered her to respond His garden, which was a dowry for her, and ordered him to divorce her once.

divorce judge

It is for the judge to divorce the wife from her husband in multiple cases, such as if the husband is absent and his fate is unknown, such as if he is a prisoner, kidnapper, or traveler, or the husband has deserted his wife for a long period without spending on her, or a divorce of competent lineage while in the case of an Arab marriage of A foreigner, with the consent of her father and the dissatisfaction of the others in the group, shall divorce the judge if any relative of the girl, among the cousins or brothers, raises his objection to the marriage.

infallibility of divorce

The law of Islam imposed that divorce be in the hands of the man, because he sees the man controlling his emotions most of the time, and because of the expenses and obstacles that he owes.

Marriage is rarely a marriage of reason but divorce must be a divorce of reason because both spouses know each other.

Divorce is not easy...it is a scratch in the body of life that remains for life.

Ihsan Abdel Quddous

One of the sad contradictions is that a Muslim spends time and money on engagement, dowry, furniture, gifts and the wedding, which may be thousands of pounds in long days. Then after all that he says, “He must divorce if he returns to smoking.” Then he smokes, his wife goes for a cigarette, and the house that he spent a lot on in his residence collapses!!
