\n\tThe Prophet (SWS) said: "If any woman asks her husband for divorce without some strong reason, the odour of Paradise will be forbidden to her." [Abu Dawud:2226, Tirmidhi:1187, Daremi:2270] However a woman is allowed to ask her husband for Khula (redemption) If he wants to keep her without giving her rights (Haqq). [see: Aap ka MasaeelkiHaal, vol:2, Question:1369, Publisher: Bangladesh Islamic Centre Dhaka]<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n
\n\tAuthor of 'Al-Hidayah' explained "When the spouses face constant discord and are apprehensive that they will not be able to maintain the limits imposed by Allah then there is no harm if she seeks to redeem herself from him through wealth on account of which he will let her go. If hostility occurs on his part, it is considered disapproved that he take compensation from her." [see: Al-Hidayah, Chapter: Khul]<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n
