The ruling on whether defective marriage requires divorce to be terminated
Assalaamu alaykom. I got married in the Philippines in a Christian way and my husband is a Lebanese Muslim.

Last August, in 2014, after one month, my husband stopped financially.. More

An invalid marriage does not require divorce to be terminated

Whether to accept marriage proposal of a repentant fornicator
Dear scholars. My question is the following: if people can make whatever mistake they want - including major sins - and then repent, and then their misconduct and sins would be removed or even replaced with good deeds, then what is it that differentiates those who commit major sins from those who do not do so? The second part of the question, and the.. More

A sister refusing to serve her siblings who spend on her
Assalaamu alaykum. My sister does not do much at home, and neither does she provide for the family.

His interest in marrying a girl was misunderstood for a formal marriage

But the father tells him something.. More

An ambiguous case of multiple divorces
I pronounced the divorce several times out of ignorance or confusion due to what shaykhs were telling me. All utterings were at the urging of my wife while I was just going along with her wishes. An imam told me that I can take her back anytime and I wrongly assumed that I can divorce and take her back as many times as I want. Also, to the best of my.. More
