Question

My husband is not taking care of me and my child financially. I was a working person before marriage and now I'm still working. He thinks that I am earning enough and don't need his money. Can I ask for a divorce because of this?

Answer

If you are finding it difficult and unmanageable you may request him.

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.
