what are the rulings and advice on women asking for divorce

i have read that if something happens in the marriage ,and the woman feels she cannot continue,or will disobey her husband who she cant love,she has a right to ask for divorce,even if the man has no failings in religion or character

BUt at the same time ,i have read that the woman who asks for divorce will not smell the scent of paradise

but of course divorce happens

but are women really free to make that choice if they are in difficult circumstances or feel that cannot continue in their role as wife

:wasalam:

divorce is allowed but highly discouraged...its just the last resort and not first. it affects not only 2 individuals but whole family.

women can ask for divorce..its called khula...there are certain reasons and conditions which are needed to be valid.

السلام عليكم نعم المرأة المسلمة لا تطلب من زوجها الطلاق الا بأسباب مشروعة في الشريعة و من طلب من زوجها الطلاق فلن تجد ريح الجنة وان تعسرت المعيشة بين الطرفين فلبد من الطلاق المشروع أي الطلاق بالتراضي و الله سبحانه و تعالى ما ترك شسء الا عرفه لنا عن طريق رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلام و نصيحتي لكم أن تسأل أهل العلم و المعرفة :astag:

Someone told me divorce is the only legitimate (not sure to call it Halal) thing in Islam which Prophet (SAW) hated.

Yes dear brother, divorce is the only halal thing in our Deen Islam that is disliked by Allah subhan wa teala on the first place, but as you have said after Allah, it can refer on our beloved Prophet sallahu alayha wa saalam and on all Muslims, Inshallah.

May Allah bless you dear brother and increase your Islamic knowledge. Ameen ya Rabby:tti_sister:

Assalamu Alaikum: Sister.

Thanks for correction and your value-able Du'aa. May Allah (SWT) bless you for your sincerity and politeness.

When I reverted to Islam my wife was scared if I embraced Islam for more marriages. She shakes on hearing word divorce.

Regards.

i still hope someone can answer on the original quesiotn ..would be much appreciated

As-salaamu `alaikum warahmatullaah!

Sister, this is the hadeeth you quoted on your first post: "If a woman asks her husband for a divorce, for no reason, then the smell of paradise is forbidden for her."( At-tirmidhi classified it as a hasan hadeeth) Sunan at-tirmidhi #1817

But sister, keep in mind that this is only for the woman who asks for divorce for NO reason at all. If there's a serious conflict that could get in the way of her practicing her deen freely in a house with a Islamic environment (such as the husband drinking khamr, his earnings being that of haraam, etc)..of course she has the right to ask for divoce. I honestly wonder though, why get into a marriage that you know will end disastrous, in the first place? Did the prophet not advice us to marry for his/her deen first and foremost?!
And the divorce rate is getting higher and higher among the Muslims nowadays, subhanallaah! May Allaah SWT guide us and keep us on the straight path. Aameen

Akhi, i believe it's Khulu'..

Anyways, sister(thread-starter).. I got to reading about 'divorces'(thanks to you:)) and i came across this hadeeth. The prophet sallallaahu `alaihi wa sallam said, "There are three matters in which it is not permissible to joke: Martiage, divorce and emancipation(of slave)."(At-tirmidhi) Al-albaanee declared it's chain of narration 'hasan'(good)

Subhanallaah! You will not believe how many times I've witnessed 'divorce' being taken lightly wallaah. The worst case is that of a relative of mine. He's constantly coming over to our house to talk with my aunt saying, "that's it, I'm done". He means his marriage with his wife. And then about two days later, they're back to their ways of being the 'affectionate' couple they are., even the most clue-less person could tell how much they care about one another. But then after one argument, it's back to "I'm done with you" again...Astaghfirullaah!

Asalamoalaikom wa rahamtullahi wa barakaatuhu. . .

Astaghfirullaah! but I heard the divorce is actually 'done" even you just say it jokingly!

There was this Drama when my father was in his late 20s(he told me about it, when explaining something about divorce). In it a couple was to get divorced, and they were a couple in real life. It became an issue, the maulvi's here declared them divorced and the matter was all over the news and stuff (according to my parents). So I if it's right I think someone should talk to them about the seriousness of the issue.

Because (if what I am told is right) there relation may become a haraam one, Astaghfirullaah. May Allaah have mercy on us all.

^wa`alaikum salaam warahmatullaah !

I had to Google what 'maulvi' meant..:)
Ukhty, you can't imagine how many times we've 'talked' with them about their situation being a serious one...but what could one do if they insist on 'not needing any help' because Everything is 'as it should be'..? They're adults.. We can't drag them by the ear to the nearest sheikh so as to teach them about the seriousness of their matter...
May Allaah SWT help them for they need it !

Here is the Fawtah which, by it's title, I believe relates to what you are asking about.

Ruling on a Woman Asking for a Divorce from Her Husband
en

If a couple differs in their Islamic perceptions. One who grow up in the West and the other in the East. And they quarrel constantly and can't come to an agreement. At what point is talaq considered? Is it wrong for a sister to ask for talaq? Will she be punished on the Day of Judgment? Does the Arsh of Ar-Rahman shake once talaq is asked for? This is what one sister, growing up the West is being told by her husband from the East.
Jazak Allah khayr for your response.

All Praises are Due to Allah​


The divorce of a Muslimah from her husband is an affair which is loathsome to Allah and not a praise worthy event. This is due to the problems and possible evils. However, if there is a situation in the marriage life taking place between the man and the women, due to a defect or defects in one or both of them, such problems of deen, bad character, sickness, or a defect such as being sterile or similar. Then out of the mercy of Allah, seeking divorce is permissible. In this case, it is okay and there is nothing prohibited in seeking a divorce.​


The thing which is prohibited is a wife seeking a divorce from her husband for no reason of the shariah. There is serious promise made for seeking a divorce without a valid reason. It is reported in the hadith of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), "If a women asks her husband for a divorce, for no reason, then the smell of paradise is forbidden for her". (At-Tirmidhi narrated it. He said this is a hasan hadith. Sunnah At-Tirmidhi #1187.)​


The hadith "marry and do not divorce for verily divorce causes the arsha (throne of Allah) to shake" is also forged and da'eef. (Al Jami As- Sagheer #2429)​
Allah knows best.​

It is the guidance of Islam in the divorce, and follow the motives and reasons for divorce, it is clear that as the divorce to the husband's favor, it would also be in favor of the wife in a lot of things, it may be the applicant for divorce, wishing it, there is no standing of Islam in the face of desire and the lifting of that and assess them, not exaggerated contempt, as alleged by plaintiffs, but underestimated exaggerated, losing sight of her will and force it to link to the bond of hate and hurt him.Écouter

sorry for going way off the topic...

Brother Abumeriem, assalaamu alaykkum,

are you using a translating software (or google translate) to translate the english content to `arabee and then respond in arabee and translate it again to english???? (i pray to Allah that you should understand what im trying to say).. If that is the case, may Allah bless you for your efforts.. and man! you got patience.

but if it is not the case, then why not just post in English??

آسف للذهاب بعيدا في الموضوع...

Abumeriem إخوانه، والسلام عليكم
هل تستخدم برامج ترجمة (أو ترجمة جوجل) لترجمة محتوى الإنكليزية إلى العربية ومن ثم الرد باللغة العربية وترجمتها إلى اللغة الإنجليزية مرة أخرى؟؟ (أدعو الله أن عليك أن تفهم ما أحاول أن أقول ايم).. إذا كان هذا هو الحال، قد صلى الله لكم على جهودكم.. ورجل! هل حصلت على الصبر.

ولكن إذا لم يكن الأمر كذلك ، فلماذا لا مجرد وظيفة في اللغة الإنجليزية؟

It takes a lot of Westerners to Islam is that it permitted divorce, and consider it a sign of contempt for Islam as much as women, and the sanctity of marriage, Qdahm that some Muslims who Tthagafoa cultures Bank, and ignorant of the provisions of their religion, although Islam was not the first of the laws of divorce, it has brought him Jewish law before, and the world knew of date.

Having considered these Alaaúbon at it from one angle only, women are affected by it, and did not consider the topic in all its aspects, and ruled in their view, the emotion is conscious, and conscious of the wisdom of it and its causes and motive.

Islam is supposed to, first, that the marriage contract is always, and continue to exist between the marital couple, until death separates them, and therefore not permissible in Islam Taqat marriage contract to a time.

Is that Islam is bound to be a marriage for life knows that it is only prescribed to people who live on the ground, their characteristics and natures of mankind, therefore, embarked them how to get rid of this contract, if you find a living, and narrowed the ways and means fail to reform, which in this realistic all realism, both equity and equitable for both men and women.

Often what happens between a couple of reasons and motives, which makes divorce the need for a crisis, and a means Mtaana to achieve good, stable family and social each, were married men and women, then it becomes clear that their difference in morality, and dissonance in the foul, he believes each of the spouses the same stranger the other, Nafra of it, has seen one of his companion after the marriage on what does not like, do not accept the behavior of a personal or a hidden defect, has shown that infertile women can not be achieved with the highest purposes of marriage, which does not want diversity, I can afford, etc. of reasons and motives, which are not available with the love between the spouses can not be achieved with the cooperation of life, and do the rights of marriage as ordained of God,

So the divorce that is a must for the salvation of the bond of marriage that has become not achieve what is intended, and which, if committed couple to stay out, to eat rancor their hearts, and almost all of them to his companion, and sought to get rid of him, including preparing him of the means, which may be the cause of deviation of each of them, and an outlet for many of the evils and sins,

This initiated the divorce as a means to eradicate these evils, and to get rid of those evils, and replaces each wife, another husband, he may find him what he missed with the first, verifies the words of Allaah (though separate, Wigan is both a capacity, and God was widely wise).

This is the solution to these problems obscure agreed with the logic of reason and necessity, and the natures of human beings and the circumstances of life
