- Q. A muslim couple is living in Holland and are getting 1300 euro’s (each month) as their income, they have 2 children (the husband is working and the woman is a housewife, she don’t works and takes care of the children) They are married according to the Islamic principles and also as married registered in Holland (in the register of marriages). Now the muslim couple is divorcing for fake on-paper so that the woman will get a social security salary of approx. 1100 euro’s (each month) So they are divorced for fake on-paper and the man has on-paper a other home-addres, and the woman gets 1100 euro’s of social security salary (each month) because on-paper she lives as a divorced woman with 2 children alone in a house. Ofcourse in reality the couple continiues to live together in one house, and the aim of the fake-divorce was to get money. Whereas they had 1300 euro’s (each month) as their income, now because of the fake divorce they get 1300 euro 1100 euro = 2400 euro’s (each month) as their total income. Is it aloud for a muslim to do like this? Will the money received extra each month from the fake divorce be Halaal? (I asked one person about it and he said; The money will be Haraam, and they are also not aloud to live together i.e. its also Haraam, there marriage was annulled (according islam) since there fake-divorce) Please comment on this as I know people who are doing like this and I want to inform them about it.

- Q. Iis it correct that the jursits have said that there is no need to use divorce by means of a letter or written words if the wife is present at the time as it can be given verbally. divorce is only permissible in writing if husband and wife are in two different places therefore if a person is forced to divorce wife and he divorces her in written words this is not a valid divorce.

- Q. I am an Indian Muslim residing in Kerala State now working in saudi Arabia. I am writing this letter for my younger sister who married on April 15 2007 in Masjid as per Hanafee school of thought. He is working in Dubai and was on vacation during the time of marriage. Now her life is fully in trouble. Actually that marriage itself was a great mistake. She didn?t live with her husband and family even for two months. That man is a saddist ,he and his parents tortured my sister and finally on June 2nd week they beated her like anything, and she told us everything and we took her to our house. Then some discussions in family level has been done and my sister categorically told us that she can?t live anymore with her husband. Then I contacted her hus. And he agreed for a mutual divorce through mahallu committee. But the next day without informing any of us he left to Dubai (Now he is in Dubai) After that he never called my sister or he even not send any money to her. My sister informed that she never wants to continue a life with that man. Her all ornaments and money are in the custody of her in laws. There is only my mother and herself only in my home at Kerala. In August 3rd we submitted an application to our Mahallu committee for a divorce. They send our application to her husband?s Mahallu committee and there is no response so far. Also then her husband phoned her and threatened that he will never divorce her and also he will do another marriage and will hurt my sister like anything. Then in consultation with our Mahallu committee my sister filed a case before the family court on 22nd August 2007, for getting back her ornaments and money from her husband?s in laws custody.(She has not filed any case for divorce before the court). Now the Mahallu committee informed us that, she can do Fasah, the procedure is she has to give an advertisement in the local news paper saying that her husband is not looking after her, and if he is not contacting her in another 20 days, she don?t want to have a relationship. Then this advertisement and another letter will be send to her husband?s mahallu committee and then the marriage will be divorced. Would you please advice me about the legal validity of this procedure as per Sahria and laws in India. After doing this can she re marry? Or if she wants to do Khula what is the procedure in India. I think its very difficult to get a divorce through court since her husband is not in India and it seems he is Absconding and living in Dubai, Insha Allah I hope you will answer to all my queries and help me to overcome the present dilemma and to get a good future for my sister

- Q. I have a question regarding the validity of divorce if forced. I was forced to sign the decree of divorce by my mother after serious differences developed between my family and my wife's family over whether my wife, who is a doctor, should work or not. I and my mother (I am the only son and father has passed) were completely against my wife working after the birth of my daughter. My wife's family on the other hand were adamant that she will work no matter what. So one day when I refused to allow my wife to give a job interview, her mother came over and after a very hot exchange of words and abuses, she took away my wife with her, although I tried very hard and also requested my wife not to leave as I feared the breakup of our marriage. She had already spent about five months at her parent's house before my daughter's birth due to differences on permission to work and having a separate house. She came back to my house after our child's birth. After my wife left again, my mother pressurised me to divorce her but I kept avoiding it expecting my wife and her parents to relent on their demand. After about three months, seeing no compromise from my wife I sent her a text message that if she didnot come back within a week on the condition that she will not work, she will be divorced once. My wife agreed to come. But before she could come, my mother forced me to sign the divorce papers threatening that if I didnot do so, she would kill herself. She had attempted suicide before by taking sleeping pills on another dispute and I knew she could it again in my absence. She said it would be either her or my wife. My sisters, who are all married, also sided with my mother and said that they would cut off all realtions with me if I did not do so. Now being the only son and caretaker of the family I could not afford to let my mother die or strain relations with sisters. Besides my mother had brought me up like a father after he died when i was only six. I felt exteremely indebted to her. I told my mother that my wife had agreed to come on the condition that she will not work. But she was not prepared to listen to any thing and told me that as long as she was alive she could not see me with that woman. I was left with no choice but to sign the papers. Please tell me if the divorce occured.

- Q. I hope Insha Allah, you will be able to advice in the right direction. Please look into the following case: One Mrs. XYZ sought Khul from her husband Mr. ABC after eight years of marital life. Mr. ABC approved the request for Khul of Mrs. XYZ and Khul took place. Before the Idda period was over, the woman XYZ realized her fault and requested again for Nikkah, which the man ABC has accepted. They got remarried as per the Islamic Sharia. Within 3 months of remarriage, the Husband Mr. ABC realized and warned her that she is not obedient and not behaving properly as a wife. Finally after a few days, the Husband ABC divorced her (XYZ) during Tohar condition one time for not fulfilling the marital requirements. Before the Idda period came to an end, the wife repented and they reconciled and got united again. Again after 5 months, Husband ABC divorced Mrs. XYZ for her not obedient attitude and for not fulfilling the marital requirements. Again the wife Mrs. XYZ said, she will try to be following the marital requirements of a wife and they got reunited again. Again after reunification, the same problems surfaced again. Now the husband wants to diverse her again. Now the question is if the Husband divorces now in Tohar condition, is it considered as first Talaq, or the Third talaq?
