What if my husband is not ready for a divorce?
Filing divorce petition. If the husband refuses to grant divorce and the lawyer recommends proceeding with a contested separation, the wife can ask the attorney for a divorce and have it filed in the appropriate court. Even if the husband refuses to grant divorce, a divorce petition may be filed.
What if my husband is refusing to divorce me?
You must show that the marriage has broken down, for example, by proving adultery, physical/mental abuse, or cruelty. You may get a divorce if you can prove this at the hearing of your divorce application. 15-Sept-2022
What if you want a divorce but your spouse doesn t?

Dear Client, How can a Muslim woman get a divorce from her husband?
Khula is the right of a woman in Islam to seek a divorce or separation from her husband. A Muslim woman may petition a qadi, or in non-Islamic areas an Islamic community panel, to grant her divorce if the husband refuses. The waiting period (iddah) of a woman who seeks a divorce is one menstrual cycle or one month if she is post-menopauseal, i.e. ceased menstruating. This is to ensure she is not pregnant.[27] If the woman is pregnant, then the waiting period is until she gives birth.
Women's right to initiate divorce is very limited compared with that of men. According to shari'a law, there are two reasons for a wife to be divorced: when she can prove that the husband did not have intercourse with her for more than two months or if the husband does not provide her with what she needs for living such as food and shelter. While men can divorce their spouses easily, women face legal and financial obstacles.[28][29] For example, in many cases the woman must repay her dowry and marriage expenses. In general she also has to forfeit child custody, if the child is older than seven years. Even if she gets child custody, she has to give it to the father, when the child reaches the age of seven.
