Talaaq

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.”

Q: One day I had an argument with my wife about something and it got so bad that I got angry and used the word divorce. However, after some time, the anger subsided that same day and we both made peace. Is our marriage valid? If yes, what is the atonement for it? And if not, what is the solution?

Q: My wife and I have been separated for a year now, however in the start of 2024 we had a fight about my behaviour as I was battling drug addiction and my mental health was in question. During this fight I said talaaq 3 times and under the influence of drugs and not knowing the facts about Islam I said talaq 3 times. 

My wife forgave me after and we continued having a physical relationship. I love my wife and I am a revert into Islam as I wanted us to have stability and live according to the codes and morals of Islam. 

My wife is not a bad person. She just wants the best for me. I wish to sort my marriage out and seek assistance in becoming a better Muslim, a better husband and father.

Q: I had given my wife a Talaaq Rajii (revokable) in October 2024 after she demanded it. 

During the iddat period we had been intimate but I did not utter the words that "I am taking her back". 

I am a Hanafi and she is a Shafi. I'm not sure if that makes a difference. 

My question is whether she is still in my nikaah.

Q: My wife betrayed me by having an affair. 

During the time I questioned her on the details of the affair I became so angry and out of my mind she told me that I have given her 3 talaaq in that moment. 

We both want to work on our marriage and not separate paths. 

I do not recall giving these talaaqs as I was so furious about hearing the details I don't even recall the entire conversation. 

On a side note, I have been diagnosed years ago with severe depression and bipolar disorder and I am a Muslim revert with not much sound knowledge on divorces hence I'm asking for your feedback. 

Trying to look for answers online are insufficient as they all differ in favor to my situation and similarly not in favor of my situation. 

I will appreciate any assistance in this regard more especially due to the fact that I can't recall it from my anger and that this surely was never the intention.

Q: Does Islam allow a Muslim woman to get her nikah annulled from an Islamic court without her husband's consent and when the man is refusing in the situations mentioned as under?

Her husband is an ill intentioned and greedy person who also emotionally blackmails his wife and in laws to grant him co ownership of an asset which the family gifted to their daughter.

After getting married, the woman got to know her husband is actually a homosexual with no interest in women. He married his wife out of societal pressure. 

Before getting married, the man deceived the woman and her family about his social status claiming to possess a good job when in reality his situation was very different. Had the girl known the truth she would not have married him. 

The man has two wives but does not deal with them equitably. prefers one over the other in terms of time allocation and material provisions, neither is he willing to change himself.

Q: If someone says Talak sentences multiple times through inner voice (heart, mind, etc.) with closed mouth, and no audible pronouncement, and the speaker was unable to hear himself in an audible voice, just the inner voice (heart, mind), Does talak take place?

Q: My husband said in an argument when he was in a lot of anger because I hide some things from him. He said from now on if you tell a lie then divorce. And asked me to say these words from my mouth but I refused and started crying. So after that incident we are living happily but telling a lie means smaller lies or hiding daily basic routine things to him. So in that case I have tell lies in daily routine. After one years time, like I hide somethings, that spoil his mood so in that case is our divorce happen or not?
