Q: If Ahmed, with a different name, opened a Facebook account and wrote to a scholar of Islamic jurisprudence (fiqh) from this account, saying, 'I have divorced my wife with triple talaq, what should I do now? How can I take her back?' (when he hasn't actually divorced her, but is in doubt and told the situation as if it happened just to learn what to do if he were to do it), what is the meaning of the quoted text in this context?
Q: If someone named Shakir creates a fake account under the name Omar, and then writes on that account “I divorce my wife,” would Shakir’s wife be considered divorced according to the Hanafi school of law?
Q: If you talking to your wife and you say by her mother's house "you can stay here permanently and I'll come visit you here' is this a divorce?
A: No divorce has taken place.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
Q: I am married for 27 years. During July 2025 my spouse stated that if I want my talaaq I must take it and go. I was seated and immediately accepted the talaaq whilst we were in the same room. What really got my attention was his facial feature or realization of what he had done. He was standing, walked out of the room thereafter and said he will give the talaaq the proper way with an aalim.
I have sought advice from the apa in my area. He denies having given the talaq and according to the advice she states he did not have any intention and therefore his word is accepted. What would be the ruling in such circumstance?
My spouse has over the years given me talaaqs and also told me to get out of his house many times. This was the first occasion I accepted the talaq without leaving the room. We were previously advised by an aalim attempting to mediate the effects of using the word talaq. My spouse is therefore aware of the effects of his words.
Q: If a Hanafi man says to himself 'my wife is divorced' and then says out loud 'so be it', is his wife considered divorced?
Q: My husband performed a second nikaah without my knowledge. I found out about it immediately after that and I had a breakdown. I tried to understand and accept it but I just could not. Hence my husband was forced to divorce her before even consumating the marriage. Will I be answerable to Allah for this?
Q: I am a 24-year-old male with low sperm count (about 5 million), whereas the WHO normal limit is 15 million or more. My wife knows and supports me, but if my condition doesn’t improve, she might ask for a divorce. I want to know how permissible that is in Islam according to the Qur’an and Sunnah.
Q: Can a person, whose life and parents life is in danger, give a fake divorce which he and his wife only know is fake for the time being to resolve life threatening issues?
Q: I have three daughters (ages 3, 5 and 8) from my ex-wife. If she remarries someone who is not her mahram, how would custody of the children work?
Q: I’d like to know if the following fatwa is authentic which I found on a Hanafi website.
“If a person holds two persons as witness, before saying these words, that he does not intend issuing talaaq and he is only saying these words on his wife's persistence, then talaaq will not be effective.”
