Khula

My wife went to her parents home saying she will return back after 3 to 7 days, But she did not return. Its almost 9 months now. My son is only 1 year 2 months now. I did not send her any money during this time. Now I think, she will not return. I know that I don’t have to pay her Nafaqa, as I asked her not to leave and inquired when is she returning, she said she would return but it turns out to be lie everytime. I would like to know should I wait until she ask Khul from me to send my sons Nafaqa. Am I zalim if I am not paying my sons nafaqa until now. Note : Divorce had not happen until now.

You are sinful for not sending the nafaqah of your son. You don’t have to divorce her as she is the one who left. You can wait until she files for khul’a.

I live separated from my husband since 10 months. I do not intend to reconcile with him because I won’t be happy. I am asking for khula but he is refusing. I live in a non islamic country where there is no islamic court.What should I do?

You can’t have this khul’a without the ruling of an Islamic judge or his agreement to take financial compensation in return for divorcing you. Try the Islamic center.

Wa alaikum salaam, The case is not clear. If he was forced by the kafir government to give divorce, this is not a divorce as he was forced but if it was the Muslim judge who forced him, this is valid.

I would advise you to reason with her. If she is truly hurting and unable to have intercourse with her, he shouldn’t force her. But if this is a defect in her and is permanent or lasting, he may divorce her if she refuses treatment. If she is not hurting but refuses to reciprocate, he […]

A sister asked her husband for a divorce, but told him to give her a talaq because she feared requesting a khul’ah due to ahadith about it. He agreed. Someone told her that this still counts as a khul’ah, what do you say? She wanted out, asked for a divorce, and he gave it to her.

I don’t know what is the hadeeth regarding Khul’u which she had heard. As for her case, if she requested divorce and he gave her divorce without any financial compensation, this is divorce and not khul’u. But if the divorce was conditional and he demanded any form of payment, this is Khul’u.

For the Khulaa, is it necessary to go the Judge, or can it be dealt with between the husband and wife and thier families itself? What if they are in a non-Muslim country where no Qadhi is available?

If there isn’t any Islamic judge, the Imam of the Islamic center there can do the job. If the two agree on the terms of Khul’a without the need for a judge, this can be done in the presence of witnesses for the sake of documentation.

I read a Hadith ” women who seek divorce without reason will not even get the fragrance of paradise” What reasons are considered valid?

If he is not financially supporting her, if he is not practicing Islam or making sins that affect her or if he has characteristics that she can not live with, all these are legitimate reasons.
