Non-effective conditional divorce


391

Q 17: A woman quarreled with her husband because she wanted him to take her to her village for a relative's wedding, but he had a lot of work to do and he could not go with her at the appointed time. They agreed that later he would take her if it was possible. Afterwards, she asked him to divorce her if he did not take her unless an unforeseen reason prevented him. Later, she gave up the idea of going to the village. What should the husband do? Are there any consequences for the woman's request?


A: There are no consequences for her request because he did not divorce her. However, she has no right to ask for divorce for such a reason. May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
