Is divorce acceptable?
Sometimes
As a last resort. The prophet Muhammad said: “Of all things which have been permitted divorce is the most hated by Allah” It is expected that the family will try to help the couple to be reconciled.
If the couple do decide to divorce then: The husband must state in front of witnesses on 3 separate occasions that the marriage is over .
A period of three months begins (Iddah). The couple will stay in the same house but not sleep together
If the couple finally decide to divorce, then the wife is given the final part of her dowry. Both parties should act toward each other with kindness
