Husband . Divorce . Apostasy (Irtidad)

My husband has expressed that he believes Islam is fake and he no longer wants a marriage based on Islam. He later recants some of it, but he no longer prays. We are now discussing divorce. What advice can you offer to someone in my circumstance?

It is possible that he said what he said because of some misunderstanding and he did not really mean to leave Islam. In such case, he is still a Muslim. If you are sure that he has deliberately left believing in Islam and became a non Muslim, your marriage bond with him finishes as there is no marriage between Muslim woman and non Muslim man. When there is no marriage bond, there is no question nor need for divorce as marriage has already become nil and void. If a husband becomes a non Muslim, his Muslim wife must observe Iddah of Wafat which is four months and ten days. That is after being definitely sure that he has become a non Muslim.

Leaving praying Salah does not make a person non Muslim because it can happen out if carelessness, unless he denies Salah.

Bismihi ta'āla

This topic has been addressed here a few times. What we can clearly say is that it is definitely culturally unacceptable for Muslim men to do this, and this would be enough for a male to refrain from having earrings.

Husband . Daughter . Employment . Family . Children

I reside in the UK with my husband and our 10-month-old daughter. I am considering returning to work but struggling to choose between childcare or working, especially without family support. What would be the best option for me?

Child care is more important and it is the best you can do for your child and family and you future in this life and hereafter. Whatever money you might get from working will never compensate the loss of your child when you spend long hours away from him. Child care and looking after your children in fact is the best investment.

Privacy . Consent . Husband

What should I do about my grown unmarried brother-in-law entering my bedroom without permission and sleeping there when I’m not home, instead of using the guest room? My husband believes it is Wajib for us to accommodate him, but I find this unacceptable.

Bismihi ta'āla

This is definitely inappropriate, and something should have been done from the very first time.You are right, it is unacceptable, and very wrong. Your husband must stop him, and if he does not, then you must stop him, or involve your family or elders to stop this, or move out with your husband to a place where you have your privacy.

Bismihi ta'āla

I am not sure what madhhab you and your husband are, as there are different laws in the Shi'i madhhab regarding divorce.

Please refer to your local scholar for information.

Wife . Husband . Marriage . Sexual

Can a wife refuse her husband's second marriage if he denied her marital rights, had an affair, is unwilling to live with her, and she also wants separation before he remarries?

There are conditions in Islam for those who need more than one wife, with out fulfilling these conditions, they are not allowed but just one wife as we read in Quran (But if you fear that you shall not deal justly with more than one wife, then just one wife) (Sura Annisaa', verse 3).

If the husband is dealing with his wives justly and giving every wife her rights equally, none of wives has a right to object on his second marriage. She does not have a right to ask for separation or Talaq as far as he is giving her rights equally with practical justice.

If the husband is committing wrong or injustice, she can complain with authentic evidence to the Marje' of Taqleed.
