\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\tA woman who has been in a marriage which has been consummated is deserving of receiving her full mahr<\/em> (dowry).[1]<\/a>It is recommended for the husband to pay the mut\u02bfah<\/em>at the time of divorce (except for a divorce occurring before consummation of the marriage whilst the wife’s mahr<\/em> has been stipulated)[2]<\/a>which is the gifting of three items: dir\u02bf<\/em> (shirt), khim\u0101r<\/em> (head covering\/scarf) and mil\u1e25afah<\/em> (shawl or blanket), the quality of which will be based on the financial situation of the husband.[3]<\/a>Isl\u0101m has not stipulated any other payment to the wife, apart from these two items, after the separation.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tAs for alimony payments, we will recommend that you do not take such payments (post-separation payments) or initiate them through the judicial system.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n
