Stipulating wife serves in-laws in return for husband's monogamy
Assalaamu alaykum. We know that men have the right to marry a second wife even if the first wife does not agree. She also does not have the right to object to it ask adivorce for it as long as the man is just. On the other hand, women are not obliged to live with or serve their in-laws.

Two reports from Ibn ‘Abbaas about Niqaab
I was wondering; regarding the face veil, I read two reports from Ibn ‘Abbaas:
Imam Ibn Katheer wrote in the preface of his Tafseer, "If we are unable to find a suitable Tafseer (exegesis) in the Quran or in the Sunnah, we go to the opinions of the Companions, for it is certain that they knew the Quran better than anyone else due to their knowledge.. More

Assalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuhu. Dear Shaykh, I pray you are in the best of health. All praise is for Allah.

Man avoiding woman he loves for the sake of Allah
Assalaamu alaykum. I have recently avoided getting involved with an extremely beautiful woman because her faith was not at the level I wanted it to be (she was not wearing the hijab). I enjoined good on her and she got very angry at me, but she is not ignoring me (I have not tried to talk to her since). I would say that my heart is hurt by this, I was.. More

Muslim jokingly says he would celebrate Christmas
Assalaamu alaykum! The man I intended to marry once jokingly said, "Are we not celebrating Christmas together? If so, I will do so by myself." He repeated that it was only a joke. What is the ruling on saying something like that? He most likely said it out of ignorance. It makes me confused as to whether I should accept the proposal of someone like.. More

Bride's brother acting as her Wali - Tense of marriage contract
Assalaamu alaykum.
1. If the bride's father is alive but does not wish to attend the wedding, can her brother be her Wali (legal guardian)?
2. Do Ijaab and Qabool (offer and acceptance) have to be said in the past tense e.g. 'I have accepted'? If they are not said in the past tense, is the marriage nonetheless valid?
May Allah reward you.

Recalcitrant wife loses right to accommodation
Salam. I read in some fatwas that a disobedient wife loses her marital rights and that her husband will not be sinful if he withholds her maintenance and accomodation. Withholding maintenance is an easy matter, relatively speaking, but how is one to withhold a disobedient wife's accomodation? Should the husband send her to her father's home? Or can.. More

Signing delegation of divorce
My question is regarding words of divorce said by the wife to her husband. During my marriage, neither I nor my father put forth any conditions.

One thing caught.. More
