‘Let us part’ is not explicit wording of divorce
Dear Brother/Sister, while reading some fatawa online, I came across Dr Zakir Naik's statement below:
There are five types of divorce in Islam – The first type is by unilateral… by unilateral agreement, between the husband and wife – Both may say… ‘Okay, we are not compatible… let us part’.
Can you explain this type of divorce. In.. More

Gathering boys and girls in one class due to small numbers
I live in a non-Muslim country and try to help the Muslim youth (age 12-16) to save their faith in this society (which contains a lot of promiscuity, pre-marital relations, alcohol, and so on). Once a week, I gather some Muslim youth for a small lecture (usually about the biography of our beloved Prophet, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam), and they are.. More

Claiming that mother or wife are entitled to man's income is false
Assalaamu alaykum, Sir. There is a belief in some Muslim families in India that the son's income should completely go to his mother or wife. Then whenever he needs anything, he should ask it from them, and thus they manage the family. They got this belief from the Hindus, and I really hate it. My mother believes it too, and my grandma said that she.. More

In our country's suburbs, some political people use their maternal grandfather's name because their maternal grandfather is a well-known political personality, so they use his name to pursue their career into politics and entice people to give them the vote based on the name of their ancestry. What is the punishment in Islam for those people who use.. More

Man obliged to spend on wife and unmarried daughters
Assalaamu alaykum. My father is not spending on my mother, who has been critically ill for a long time.

Khul' without compensation is divorce
Assalaamu alaykum. My husband divorced me because I asked for a Khul' (divorce requested by the wife in which she is to return the bridal gift)but without compensation, so it was a simple divorce and we did not know that at that time. We thought that it was a good Khul'done correctly, but no. So I had to wait three months for my ‘Iddah (post-divorce.. More

Divorcing wife again during her ‘Iddah
Assalaamu alaykum. When a husband divorced his wife and then pronounces a second divorce during the ‘Iddah (post-divorce waiting period), should the wife add a new ‘Iddah of three months from the moment when the second divorce was pronounced, or should she finish the same ‘Iddah that she started with the first divorce? For example: he divorced.. More

Promise of divorce is not conditional divorce
Assalaamu alaykum. Last year, around August, I asked my husband to give me an oath on the Quran, by putting his hand on the Quran, to prove that he is not cheating on me again. He had done this for me once or twice before too. But this time (in August), right after giving me an oath on Skype, he said, while showing me his hand on the Quran, "You looking.. More
