Salam. Is it true that Ibn Saad in Tabakat wrote that Aisha was 9 years old at the time of the engagement, and 12 years old at the time of consummation? Similar things are written about Ibn Hillikan.

My wife has decided to separate because of reason that has happened is beyond repair. She asked me to get out of the house and I did, I reassured kids I am going to be back as they are still under 10. But my wife has decided to be separate. I am in another city at my relative. She been talking to kids about what happened and how dad is not gonna live with them. I have met them but she is not happy for me to meet like that. I want to know what rights I have on my kids, how can we make sure kids upbringing is co parenting. What goes Islam says about it? This is the second time she told me to get out of the house even I tried to separate the bed once but she won’t leave me alone. She has anger management issues. I wanna know in light of Quran how and what to continue when kids are involved.

I am a muslim male. When I was a child a person older than me had anal sex with me several times. When I was a teenager I had oral sex with one of my cousins. Does that make me a fornicator? According to Quran 24:3 A fornicator does not marry except a fornicator. How can I get married?

I have two marriage contracts with the same person. The first marriage took place in a foreign country with a **lower amount of mehr**, and the second contract was executed in our home country with a **higher amount of mehr**. However, before finalizing the first contract, both parties agreed on the higher amount of haq mehr which is mentioned in the **second contract.** The first marriage contract in the foreign country was happened because the marriage court did not permit a higher amount of mehr; there is a maximum limitation on haq mehr in that foreign country. Both our families also live in foreign countries. We did this to simplify the visa transfer process from the bride's father to the groom. Additionally, at that time, both families could not travel to our home country for other reasons. As a result, the first marriage ceremony occurred in the foreign country, and eight months later, the second marriage took place in our home country. **From an Islamic perspective, I would like to clarify which marriage contract holds validity, whether it is the first or the second.** I agree to pay the amount of haq mehr mentioned in the second marriage.

Aslem walkuim ​​​​​ I married a girl about 3 years ago the marriage lasted for about a year then we had a lot of arguments so we separated (we never got divorced we both went our separate ways) after 2 years off no communication me and her started back talking! My question is are we still married as far as deen? If not what are the requirements for us to get back together?

Scholars of Islam generally claim that it is not permissible for a woman to demand alimony from her ex-Husband except in instances of child support. However, I came across this Ayah in Quran 2:241 that states: > وَلِلْمُطَلَّقَاتِ مَتَاعٌۢ بِٱلْمَعْرُوفِ ۖ حَقًّا عَلَى ٱلْمُتَّقِينَ > > Reasonable provisions must be made for divorced women—a duty on those > mindful ˹of Allah˺. > > Surah Al-Baqarah (2:241) The vast majority of jurists interpret this as a Mahr given to women whose dower was not specified during the time of consumation of the marriage. However, according to IslamQA , it is the opinion of Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyya and Sheikh Muhammad ibn Salih al-Uthaymin that this must be given to all divorced women, even if the marriage has been consumated and the Mahr has been given. > Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen (may Allaah have mercy on him) said: Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah (may Allaah have mercy on him) said: Maintenance must be given to every divorced women, even after consummation. What is the opinion of the four schools of thought and other classical Islamic scholars on this topic. Is this a one time payment or regular monthly payments akin to alimony in the West.

It is understood by the consensus of scholars that a father may arrange the marriage for his minor son and the marriage is binding on him when he reaches puberty. My question is — who is responsible to pay the dower (mahr) to his wife. The father or the minor son? Ibn Abi Shaybah has posted several opinions in his book , The Book of the Compiler, both of which are contradicting each other. Some scholars say the father, some say the minor son. I would like to know the opinion of the four madhabs and other classical scholars, and what is the most authentic opinion in this regard.

What is the ruling on the marriage between a Muslim man and a Christian / Jewish woman? I know that this kind of marriage is allowed but what is the complete ruling on this i.e. is a woman being Christian / Jewish enough and sufficient criteria to get married or is there anything else that needs to be taken care of? What if she does not want to change her religion after marriage?

I don't have a job right now and I am in a relationship with a woman and we both want to get married. Can we get married without telling our families? So that our relationship is confirmed. And when I get a job, we will inform our families and get married. Please answer my question and if i can, then how can I do it and what things should I keep in mind?

My husband raped another woman and won’t sign divorce papers I want to remarry we have not been intimate for over 14 months is it ok for me to have a partner

I made a mistake 2 years ago by getting into a relationship with someone. I said kobul to him 3 times without the permission of my parents. We are not together anymore as I've realised that being in a relationship is very much haraam. I ask for forgiveness all the time. I want to know whether or not we are tied in marriage by saying kobul? My mother found out about the relationship and made me realise that I went astray and did not approve of him.

I have been reading up on the relationships in Jannah, & i came across a forum of fellow Muslim brothers saying a few things. Id greatly appreciate a numbered response to each question please!(these questions come from Quran, the forum, & some things i heard Muslims say like Mohammed Hijab for example) 1.Is there such thing as haram in Jannah? (i was told there is no such thing as morality in Jannah) 2.Is it true that pedophilia will be allowed in Jannah if asked for because it is not pedophilia? (this is what they said on the forum) 3.Is it true homosexuality will be halal in Jannah if we abstain in this life? (they said in Quran it mentions beautiful boy servants & that nothing is immoral and it will be okay because in Jannah there wont be disease like AIDS) 4.It says in Quran we will get 2 wives, but what if i dont want two wives? I want to be with my wife only, i love her so much & even though jealousy wont exist i still dont want anyone but her. 5. Is it true if my wife and other women will have men servants & if they choose can have a better husband or more men in Jannah?

I love someone more than i love myself and she did the same. She would even cut her fingers before someone else will see her nails except me, we were more dedicated than someone could imagine.So we were trying to get married as soon as possible. My family and we two were ready to get married but her family hasnt yet agreed and mentally tortured her. However, she died recently. The heart i have given to her, i cant give it to anybody else not even in hereafter or in my dreams.The immense love we had, cannot be described even if i write thousand pages. if i really remember the things of this dunya. And people do not forget these things. If we two go to jannah, can i not marry her there? Im decided not to get married again, i will rather slay myself than marriage. And she is the result of my dua of whole ramadhan. I could feel every bit of it. No way on earth that she isnt the result of my dua of every fasting day. And a single dua is accepted while fasting in ramadhan, theres a clear belief in islam. And i heard loved ones, especially someone couldnt marry because of death will be reunited in jannah. Can someone give me any proper hope? Im doing good deeds so that she and i, both go to jannah together and i decided to isale sawab a part of my sawab of my whole life. Cause she is not in jannah instead she herself was a piece of jannah, my soul. I can never decieve her, not in this dunya,nor in the afterlife. She have her life as a proof. I must prove it too. I know we did wrong but we didnt do anything bad. I kept it pure.kindly give me proper hope. I beg someone

In islam, it's said that a wife will be with her last husband from earth in paradise (most popular belief), but what about the previous husband if he was good to his wife and sincerely prayed and wanted to be with his wife in the hereafter? Will Allah grant his wish in paradise if he wishes for exclusivity with his wife ? Whether it be by means of alternate reality or whatever possibilities? Or will he get a different spouse? And if yes to a different spouse, then isn't paradise very limited to what we want as Allah has promised believers will get whatever they wish for? I am aware he might remove haram wishes/desires, but asking to be with my spouse eternally is not a haram wish and he promises that spouses will be together or people will be together with their loved ones. If one says, "oh you won't feel negativity if you see your wife with her last husband, there won't be any rivalry or enmity, etc", but that's brainwashing in this case and it's not my genuine wish to watch my wife be with someone else, rather Allah is enforcing everything according to his wishes. I pray to Allah to forgive me if i had said anything blasphemous or bad. That is not my intention. Personally, i have always wanted a righteous wife and a marriage that will last eternally in case i make it to Jannah. In this life and the hereafter. If despite knowing this, Allah brainwashes me, that according to my limited knowledge, is not fair. I don't personally want to invest in a marriage which has a possibility for me to love someone deeply and pray to be together in the hereafter but due to my untimely passing, she has to remarry and belong to someone else eternally. It is very disturbing to me to even think about. I would be grateful if i can get a proper answer for this. Thank you!

Assalamu alaikum, I am a Kuwaiti (Mālikī)who has been hoping to marry this man (he is Iraqi), however when I brought the matter up to my father he rejected the idea right away and got very angry at the suggestion of me marrying an iraqi, his only reason was the fact that he is non-kuwaiti and he does not want me marrying someone who is not Kuwaiti. I have also brought this up to my brothers and uncle however they all rejected the idea and refused to listen due to the same cultural reason. I have read that that is an invalid reason to reject a marriage. No matter how many times I ask or plead them to just meet him they keep rejecting the idea. Me and this brother really want to get married, although I have no committed any haram with him I fear I may in the future and it’s better for both of us to marry ASAP we are both very frustrated right now. And I see no other reason why we cannot get married he is a pious man, very religious and is able to support us, there is no reason why we cannot marry other than cultural differences. Please help us, is there any way possible I can marry him with someone else as my wali?

Assalamu aleikum, I want to know if my nikkah was valid. I had a nikkah with two witnesses. We had a sheikh with us who also acted as my wali because I don’t have one as I’m a revert woman. I later found out that one of our witnesses didn’t pray nor do obligatory acts of worship like fasting. I had my doubts about this man but I tried to think well of him. My husband spent a lot of time with him and a year after our nikkah my husband told me he has never seen him pray during years of knowing this man. Our other witness prayed occasionally. So my question is was our nikkah valid? Should we do our nikkah again?

Is it allowed in Islam for a man to marry his wife's first cousin, which he knows will cause conflict among them?

I too my shahada on March 9th 2025. I was wondering can I possible marry a Muslim Man, while going through the divorce process from my ex (Non Muslim) husband. We have been separated since June 2024. I also have a protective order against him for me and our 3 children. I have no form of communication with him. I have actually tried to have him served 2 times with papers and now he has left the state that I reside in. I have no way of getting in contact with him and do not wish to have any communication with him. My problem is I dont have any Muslim men in my family and Im not a part of a Masjid so I don`t have an Imam. What would some of my options be??

It is generally observed that exorbitantly high mehr/sedaq are set as the condition for marriage by the bride (or her family who represent her). This thing has the potential to set forth the idea of marriage primarily for the sake of material benefits rather then spiritual ones, coupled with the possibility of breading social wrongs and disrupting it's very fabrics, cynicism etc. Although, the wife has the right to get her alimony. But is it permissible to set forth demands, in the prenuptial, so exorbitantly high that marriage tends to become a cause for bad rather then good? Is there a suggested/advisable alimony that should be demanded?

Can you provide a Sahih hadith that clearly states Aisha (RA) attained puberty at 9 before her marriage was consummated?
