    Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !

    (Fatwa: 1792/1493=B/1429)

     

    One or two prudent and impartial persons from both the sides of husband as well as wife should sit together and hear the case of the two. If there is possibility of compromise, they should strive to normalize the condition but if it seems impossible, then the matter should be settled either by Talaq or through khula. It is sin to keep the wife forcefully hanging in between.
