Dear Madam, the istridhan belongs to the lady and she can claim the istridhan at the time of divorce. But this may create a discussion, that the boy side may claim that you had taken the istridhan already. And the main grounds available to a woman normally are that she can claim divorce on ground of cruelty by husband, or Adultry (having extra marital relationships) but in all the cases you should be able to prove the case . the children can be in your custody as you are the mother and you can claim for the expenses for the upbringing of children from your husband if you start living separately or you get divorce from him.
