Khul' without compensation is divorce
Assalaamu alaykum. My husband divorced me because I asked for a Khul' (divorce requested by the wife in which she is to return the bridal gift)but without compensation, so it was a simple divorce and we did not know that at that time. We thought that it was a good Khul'done correctly, but no. So I had to wait three months for my ‘Iddah (post-divorce.. More

Assalaamu alaykum. When a husband divorced his wife and then pronounces a second divorce during the ‘Iddah (post-divorce waiting period), should the wife add a new ‘Iddah of three months from the moment when the second divorce was pronounced, or should she finish the same ‘Iddah that she started with the first divorce?

Promise of divorce is not conditional divorce
Assalaamu alaykum. Last year, around August, I asked my husband to give me an oath on the Quran, by putting his hand on the Quran, to prove that he is not cheating on me again. He had done this for me once or twice before too. But this time (in August), right after giving me an oath on Skype, he said, while showing me his hand on the Quran, "You looking.. More

I have asked this question before, but due to insufficient information, I did not get a fatwa and satisfactory answer. I have elaborated on it here.

Dear sir, I am a 36-year-old man. I married a woman who is 27 years old. After getting married, we started facing problems.

Authorizing wife to issue divorce
Dear Brother/Sister. Assalaamu alaykum. I came across some articles in which it says that a man can give the right of divorce to his wife. Does that mean that if a man tells his wife during a fight: if you want to leave, then go, and, on the spot, since the wife is angry, she says, "Yes, I am leaving you," this counts as a divorce? Thank you for explaining.

Announcing bigger dowry than one agreed upon in secret
Assalaamu alaykum. The girl's guardian wants me to name a very big dowry. They say, "You do not have to pay it, the wife will forgive it. We just want you to name it for social prestige." My question is, is it permissible to name a huge dowry without having the ability to pay it or without having any wish to pay it? It feels like hypocrisy to me.

Resorting to civil court for divorce
I have a question regarding divorce in Islam while living in the USA. I separated from my wife due to some domestic issues that took place between us 10 months ago. While separated, I decided to divorce my wife due to the gravity of issues. As I did not want to utter the word Talaaq (divorce), I hired an attorney to do the job for me in compliance with.. More

Carrying name 'Mateen'
Assalaamu alaykum. My name is Motin. Its correct spelling is Mateen, which is one of the 99 Names of Allaah. Some people say that it is not permissible to have the name Motin without having 'Abdul' (slave of) in front of it. It has to be Abdul Motin as it is one of the Names of Allaah, The Exalted. I am aware that some of Allaah's Names must have Abdul.. More

Inhaling breath of alcohol drinker
Assalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuhu. Dear Shaykh, when someone drank alcohol and stands near to us, we can smell the scent of alcohol. Is it haram to inhale that smell? Sometimes, it is difficult to avoid that smell, especially when they talk to us or stay in our room or the like. What should we do on such occasions?
