Question

I would like to inquire on how a fasakh works?

Answer

If you are referring to faskh of a marriage then your grievances should be presented to some reliable group of Muslims, preferably Ulama. They will see if you have a valid case and they will follow procedure. If they see that there is a valid reason to annul the nikaah they will do it. This is called faskh.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Ask Mufti Online

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.
