Question
A molvi/sheikh granted a woman a faskh without there having been a hearing. The husband was not called to a hearing. Is the faskh valid?
Answer
The „faskh‟ granted without following the proper Shar‟i process is not valid. It is necessary for the husband to be called to the hearing. Issuing a „faskh‟ merely on the basis of what the wife says is not valid. The nikah remains valid.
