conditions for the validity of nikaah

Secret nikaah

Q: I am Muslim and Sunni woman. Divorced for last 7 years. I have done my Nikkah last year in the presence of two male Muslims witnesses, with a man who supports me in every manner. My family was not involved as being a divorced people don't like remarrying of a woman. We kept on meeting but for last some time I am not getting any job and it seems my Rizq is banned on me, I am afraid that am I in a Haram relation. I have stopped seeing my husband but he's angry with me now. Please let me know what to do. Witnesses were there and man is mature and supportive but I am really scared. I perform all my prayers n tilawat tahajud and other ibadat but no rizq from anywhere. Please pray and advice.

Nikaah without witnesses

Q: My question is about Nikaah. One person did nikaah to woman like this. They both wrote on a paper that in the name of Allah I accept you as wife and husband. Then they speak verbally three times to each other kabool he kabool he. Then boy gives her haq mahar. Then the boy told many people he has did nikaah for gawaah or witness after some time. Is that nikaah valid?

Girl not accepting the nikaah

Q: A friend of mine was forcibly married to her cousin. She never accepted the marriage and clearly said no to marriage at the time of Nikah. She kept asking for divorce and her husband would say OK. In one conversation she told him, she would not come to him and does not want to keep the relationship of marriage. He said OK and replied, he would not come to her either. It's been 20 years since and they have no marital relations. They do not live together. It's the nikah/marriage still valid our broken ? She has not received any mahr after marriage and she doesn't want anything from him.

Marrying a new Muslim girl without the consent of her parents

Q: I am a muslim guy and I want to marry a girl. She is also a born muslim but her father is not muslim and her mother is also a muslim. So I want to marry her but we dont want to tell her parents about the nikah and will tell them later. Please advise me. Should i marry her withot her parents consent? Is it right and after nikah we have decided that the girl will live with their parents until we tell them about our nikaah.

Arranging the nikaah on the phone

Q: I recently did my Nikkah over the phone. My husband lives 100 miles away from me. He was at the Masjid with his two witnesses plus the Imam and I was at home. The Imam called me, asked me questions regarding to the Marriage also asked my wali which was my 16 year old son if he excepted this Marriage which of corse he agreed. Please can you tell me if my nikaah is valid?

Reuniting after a faskh

Q: My question is twofold: 1) Can I retain my wife in a marriage wherein she claims that I have not been emotionally supportive of her and she is unhappy, yet I feel I want to work on the issues (especially since we have 3 children to consider)? 2) We have already divorced twice (2 talaqs) and knowing that after the 3rd talaq we cannot reconcile without first marrying other people - what if she had to pursue a Fasakh (annulment) which is then granted, can we perhaps still re-marry after that?

Nikaah breaking through the husband becoming murtad

Q: I was in love with a Hindu boy for the last five years. When we decided for the marriage, I asked him to accept Islam and spend some time in Tablighi jamat before marriage. He accepted Islam legally and completed all of the mandatory requirements for conversion. He also spent few days in Tablighi Jamat. Then I married him on January 23, 2015. He promised me and my family members to lead Islamic life throughout the life. After few days from the marriage he was informing me to finish all of my prayers before he reaches home and few problems started. He offered prayers on Fridays for two weeks. After 2 months from the marriage he said he doesn’t believe in prophets, Life after death etc and they are all stories. After sometime I got separated from him in the month of july 2015 as he said he doesn't believe in Islam in his own words but he was not ready to give Talaaq as he was loving me lot. Whenever I asked for Talaaq he used to say that he can’t live without me and used to refuse it. I m staying separate since August 2015. Finally, he agreed for khula in September 2016. I married to a Muslim guy within 3 days from the date of receiving my khula papers. When my family members came to know about this marriage, they are questioning me that, I didn’t spend my iddah period of 3 months and my new marriage will not be valid. I assumed that my marriage is already broken on the day when he informed me that he doesn’t believe in Islam, Prophets and life after death etc. Could you please suggest me if I need to spend iddah period now or it’s already passed? Personally I didn’t spend Iddah period as I’m a working woman. Also, please let me know if my new marriage is valid or not.
