Talaaq (Divorce)

Question

Mentioning the words to ones spouse, “Our marriage is not going well.” with the intention of divorce, be counted as a divorce?

Answer

In the above case, Talaaq will not take place, as the words used indicate that the Nikah is not perfect but there is some degree of deficiency. [Re:- Fataawa Darul Uloom Zakariyya Pg.148 Vol.4]

Ask Ibn Masood

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Ifta Ibn Masood. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
