Marital problems
Question
Can a woman obtain a fasakh on the basis of non-nafakah (not buying clothes and not providing a roof over our head and letting his wife and children live off his mother in-law) on financial and emotional abuse and not spending time with his children? Also spending all his free time with his half brother and cousin fixing vans.
Answer
We suggest that you refer your husband to an aalim that he normally refers to and holds in esteem. Perhaps the aalim will be able to advise him to correct his ways and better the relationship with you.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
