Mahr

Q: My then wife took the dowry without my permission and refused to return it, so its like she forced me to divorce her. What is the ruling in this, is that dowry halal?

Q: I have married just 6 years ago. It was a love marriage. I didn't have a condition at that time to pay for mahr. But then I have paid some money to her. Please tell me is our nikaah valid?

Q: I was married but found out the woman had a boyfriend during and before my nikah. Do I still have to pay the remaining dowry even though I have divorced her?

Q: There is a couple who are separated for nearly two years, and recently they divorced - now the wife asked for divorce. I want to know if the husband has to pay her anything, like mehr money, as the wife demanded mehr money and some others. Is it right? does the husband have to pay even if the wife divorces the husband?

Q: I am asking this question on behalf of my sister. She got married from two years now and alhamdulillah she is blessed with a girl baby. The problem is she was given 110 ounce of gold as maher. Her father in law is a bad person who has even tried to break their relationship for his personal intrest. In fact he has ego problem. Now he is holding the maher and says its given from my earnings not his sons. My brother in law is now trying to move from house but his father is not helping him financially though he is rich. Kindly let me know what is the status of maher in this situation. 

Q: Regarding Mahr, what did you say about Mahr whether it should be cash or gold or any other thing?

Q: What amount of mahr will a woman be entitled to if her husband divorced her immediately after the Nikah (before spending any time with her in privacy)?

Q: How much mahr will a woman receive whose husband passed away before consummating the Nikah?

Q: If during the nikah, the wife gave the groom a specified amount of time to give the dowry. Example: The wife gave the groom till August 28th to give Dowry of $300. Since then the groom has put the money into a non-interest savings but the couple needed to take from the savings to make ends meet. The total amount put into savings exceeds the $300 dowry. Is the marriage still valid if $300 isn't given to the bride by august 28th?

Q: If a wife passed away mahar wasn't paid to her than what should husband do now? Is it still to be paid? If yes then to whom should it be paid to?
