Answer
All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify
that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad
, is His slave and Messenger.
If the husband beats his wife without her being recalcitrant, or that
he beats her severely, leaving scars and marks on her body, then this
is a harm that allows her to ask for divorce; and if thehusband
refuses to divorce her, she may takeher case to the court so that the
judge would oblige him to divorce heror that the judge himself would
divorce her from him. She may as well ask her husband for Khul' due to
the harm he inflicts on her provided that she gives him back her dowry
so that he would divorce her. The same applies if she hates him to a
point that she fears not to fulfill his rights.
As regards the issue of fearing the future and him renting a house and
not owning one, then this is not a legitimate excuse for her to reject
him as a husband, as he is obliged only to provideher with a suitable
accommodation according to his ability; as Allaah Says (what means): {
Lodge them [in a section] of where you dwell out of your means.
}[Quran 65:6]
For more benefit, please refer to Fataawa 86307 and 89039 .
Allaah Knows best.

Women, Her family and ex-husband pressure her to take Khul' from her husband

Question
As Salaam Alai Kum A girl was married at age of 17+ without her
consent; during the relationship of marriage she had three children;
the woman quite often brought to the attention of her family members
the strains in the first marriage, however, they asked her to
continue. They could not get along and finally divorced each other,
mutual agreement.After completing the Iddah, Shariah formalities, etc.
she came in contact with a man, liked him and both got married
(Nikaah) as per Shariah guidelines. The three children from her first
husband stay with the mother & second husband (the couple). The couple
is happily married for last 10-12 years; the children also are happy &
their basic needs are taken care-of; there is no dispute in
relationship, this relationship is full of love, genuine feelings;
care, affection, understanding, etc. The elder daughter (first child)
recently got married (most of the expenses of the marriagewere borne
by biological father). Now the other two children have grown-up, the
biological father demands that the kids stay with him, citing they
will have brighter future and shall not be deprived of the luxuries of
life. To give the children their 'HAQ"; the condition imposed by
thewoman's (mother) family members and first husband is that she
should take KHULA from the second husband. The mother cannot stay
without the children; thiscouple (woman + second husband) cannot live
without each other; there is no valid reasons for separation, both are
happy with each other. The people involved are demanding / forcing the
woman to take KHULA from the second husbandand go back to the first
husband. Otherwise she and the children will be deprived from the
'HAQ' they should get by meansinheritance. "Is it fair or permissible
to force the Woman to take KHULA or force the Second Husband to give
KHULA without any valid reasons or justifications? "Is it fair or
permissible to withhold one's 'HAQ' and deprived them with what they
entitled for"?
Answer
All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify
that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad
, is His Slave and Messenger.
It is not permissible for anyone to force two spouses to separate
through divorce or Khul' without a Sharee'ah-based reason. It would
not even be valid unless they consented to it. Rather, this is like
what the sorcerers and devils do when they work to separate loved
ones. This causes Fitnah (tribulation) in the earth and great
corruption. Allaah The Exalted Said about sorcerers (what means): {
They then learn from them that by which they cause separation between
a man and his wife. } [Quran 2:102]. It is reported in Saheeh Muslim
that one of the troops of Ibless (the Devil) says to him: " I did not
leave him alone until I caused separation between him and his wife. "
So he (Iblees) brings him close to him and says: " How good youare! "
Those people should be reminded to fear Allaah for themselvesand to
stop this evil act.
Likewise, it is not the right of the father to restrict his children
from their right of inheritance due to them staying in the custody of
their mother. If he wrote this in his will, then that (partof the)
will would be invalid and it is not permissible to fulfill it. Allaah
The Exalted divided the inheritance according to His Book and He gave
every rightful person his right, and then followed that by saying
(what means): { These are the limits set by Allaah, and whoever obeys
Allaah and His Messenger will be admitted by Him to gardens [in
Paradise] under which rivers flow, abiding eternally therein;and that
is the great attainment. And whoeverdisobeys Allaah and His Messenger
and transgresses His limits – He will put him into the Fire to abide
eternally therein, and he will have a humiliating punishment. } [Quran
4:13-14]. For more benefit, please refer to Fatwa 120933 .
As for the custody of the children, it is the right of the mother.
However, if she marries, then custodyis transferred thereafter to the
person entitled to it after her according to the order stated by
juristsas clarified in Fatwa 84618 . Some of the scholars stipulated
that the right of custody for the father is conditioned upon him
having a righteous female to manage that custody. This is reported by
the Maaliki jurists.
If there is any dispute in such issues, it is only appropriate to
refer to those specialized in looking into Muslim affairs (like
Islamic courtsand Islamic centers).
Allaah Knows best.

..:♥:..Do Not Forget to Get your LIGHT..:♥:..
"Whoever reads Soorat al-Kahf on the day of Jumu'ah, will have a
lightthat will shine from him from one Friday to the next."
(Narrated by al-Haakim, 2/399; al-Bayhaqi, 3/249. It was classed as
saheeh by Shaykh al-Albaani in Saheeh al-Jaami', 6470)
It was narrated that Ibn 'Umar said: "The Messenger of Allaah (peace
and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said:'Whoever reads Soorat
al-Kahf on the day of Jumu'ah, a light will shine for him from beneath
his feet to the clouds of the sky, which will shine for him on the Day
of Resurrection, and he will be forgiven (his sins) between the two
Fridays.'"
Al-Mundhiri said, this wasnarrated by Abu Bakr ibn Mardawayh in his
Tafseer, with an isnaad with which there was nothing wrong.
(al-Targheeb wa'l-Tarheeb, 1/298)
The soorah may be read during the night or the day of Jumu'ah. The
night of Jumu'ah starts from sunset on Thursday, and the day of
Jumu'ah ends at sunset. Therefore the time for reading this soorah
extends from sunset on Thursday to sunset on Friday.
Al-Mannaawi said:
Al-Haafiz ibn Hajar said inhis Amaali: "In some reports it says 'the
day of Jumu'ah' and in some reports it says 'the night of Jumu'ah'.
They may be reconciled by saying that what is meant is the day which
includes the night and vice versa." (Fayd al-Qadeer, 6/199)
Al-Mannaawi also said:
"It is recommended to read it during the day or night of Jumu'ah, as
al-Shaafa'i (may Allaah have mercy on him) stated." (Fayd al-Qadeer,
6/198)

Story - Novel The Fever CHAPTER 4

CHAPTER 4
A sweet aroma filled the air as I woke from the comfort of the bed.
I did not recognize the smell at first, for I hadn't smelt it in such
a long time, but eventually it hit me what the scent possibly was.
"Good, you're awake," my wife said as she brought a steaming mug to the bed.
"Coffee?" I asked half surprised half thrilled at the sight.
"Yes, they had some in the drawer over there by the counter. Paul,
this is wonderful."
"Mmmmm," I said as I slowly sipped the coffee."Where are the girls?"
"Swimming. I walked them down to the pool this morning and they've
been having a grand time. I think we are someof the only people in the
hotel right now."
I took another sip of the black liquid and smiled. Jen smiled back at
me and lay down on the bed next to me.
"The girls are gone?"
"Mmhmmm," she answered.
"Really," I said and set down my coffee mug on the nightstand. Jen
grabbed the blankets and pulled them over both of us.
"How long are they going to be gone?"
"At least a little while yet."
"Well in that case..."
"It's been awhile since we've done this."
"Too long."
She laughed and we continued until a rappingon the door interrupted our session.
"I'll get it," I said and quickly threw on some clothes before walking
tothe door. Jennifer was still giggling. The rappingcontinued against
the door, harder than the first time.
I stuck my eye up to the peephole and saw a disoriented, unfamiliar
face through the small piece of glass. "Who is it?"
"I'm looking for a Jacob Finch."
"Sorry, wrong room."
"Okay, thank you," the voice said and then walked away.
"What was that all about?" Jen asked.
"Someone was looking for somebody and they had the wrong room."
"Oh," she paused and then smiled, pulling the blankets closer around
her. I started walking towards the bed when another rapping started on
the door, this time much lighter than the last. I walked back to the
door, irritated.
"Better not be that same idiot," I muttered as I stood up to the
peephole. I saw nothing. Confused, I started walking back towards the
bed. The rapping suddenly continued. Nowangry, I stomped back to the
door. Jennifer just laughed.
Once again, when I got tothe door, I could see no one. I was just
about to walk away when I heard a child's voice say, "C'monDad, stop
playing games and let us in." Jen must have heard them too because she
was instantlyout of the bed, wrapped in the sheets, and hurriedly
striding into the bathroom with a lookof amusement across her face.
Once she slammed the door, I opened the door for the twin girls.
"Gee wiz took you long enough. Where is Mommy?"
"She's in the bathroom, Hun."
"Well then why is her underwear and clothes all over the floor?" One
ofthe twins asked. "Are these yours?" the other asked as she held up
some red plaid boxer shorts. All I could do was laugh.
The day went by quickly after that.
We decided to order lunch to our hotel room, and the girls could not
get enough of the kiddy pool area. Jen and I stayed curled up on the
couch for most of the dayand just relaxed and watched cable- a first
for both of us. Jen was intrigued by the multiple soap operas and
continued to wake me upas I watched them through my eyelids. But when
suppertime came, Iwas more than awake.
"Everyone ready for steaks?" I yelled with enthusiasm.
"Yeah," I was greeted with much less enthusiasm. The twins were wiped
out for al theswimming they had beendoing that day and Jen was
preoccupied for dressing them for the lessthan ideal winters of
Chicago.
We left the hotel and found a steakhouse just down the road. Jen and I
had gone there on special occasions like birthdays and anniversaries
and such, because they weren't expensive and they had very good food.
When we arrived, we were immediately seated, just beating the
suppertime rush. We were put off in a corner, away from the crowding
of the restaurant, and I ordered premium sirloinsfor everyone right
away.
Soon when the waiter came back, everyone received a large slab of meat
in front of them, sided with French fries and coleslaw. A large bottle
of barbecue sauce was set in the middle of the table. The twin's eyes
were huge when the plates were set in front of them.
"Would you say grace?" I politely motioned to Jen. She nodded and
began the ritual.
"Bless us oh Lord, for these thy gifts, which we are about to receive,
from thine bounty, through Christ, our Lord, Amen."
"Alright, let's eat!" I said and started sawing away at the tender
meat. Jen cut up the food for the twins and they ate a few bites then
moved on to the French fries, completely avoiding the coleslaw.
We boxed up everything that was not eaten and left a larger than
normal tip on the table for the waiter to pick up. Jen took the girls
to the bathroom to clean up while I paid the bill and soon we were on
our way back to the hotel. Once there, everyone soon fell fast asleep.
I lasted longer than everyone else, and I constantly stared at Jen and
the girls, appreciating what I had been given to treasure. For the
first time, I actually felt like I was succeeding at my job as
ahusband and as a father.
